摘要
Purpose: To report the prevalence of refractive errors and the associated risk factors in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus from an urban Indian population. Design: Population-based, cross-sectional study. Participants: One thousand eighty participants selected from a pool of 1414 subjects with diabetes. Methods: A population-based sample of 1414 persons (age >40 years) with diabetes (identified as per the World Health Organization criteria) underwent a comprehensive eye examination, including objective and subjective refractions. Main Outcome Measures: One thousand eighty subjects who were phakic in the right eye with best corrected visual acuity of >= 20/40 were included in the analysis for prevalence of refractive errors. Univariate and multivariate analyses were done to find out the independent risk factors associated with the refractive errors. Results: The mean refraction was +0.20 +/- 1.72, and the Median, +0.25 diopters. The prevalence of emmetropia (spherical equivalent [SE], -0.50 to +0.50 diopter sphere [DS]) was 39.26%. The prevalence of myopia (SE<-0.50 DS), high myopia (SE<-5.00 DS), hyperopia (SE>+0.50 DS), and astigmatism (SE<-0.50 cyl) was 19.4%, 1.6%, 39.7%, and 47.4%, respectively. The advancing age was an important risk factor for the three refractive errors: for myopia, odds ratio (OR; 95% confidence interval [CI] 4.06 [1.74-9.50]; for hyperopia, OR [95% CI] 5.85 [2.56-13.39]; and for astigmatism, OR [95% CI] 2.51 [1.34-4.71]). Poor glycemic control was associated with myopia (OR [95% CI] 4.15 [1.44-11.92]) and astigmatism (OR [95% CI] 2.01 [1.04-3.88]). Female gender was associated with hyperopia alone) OR [95% CI] 2.00 [1.42-2.82]. Conclusions: The present population-based study from urban India noted a high prevalence of refractive errors (60%) among diabetic subjects >40 years old; the prevalence of astigmatism (47%) was higher than hyperopia (40%) or myopia (20%).
