Abstract
Purpose: To study the affect of LDL cholestrol, HDL cholestrol and triglycerides with diabetic maculopathy in type 2 diabetic patients.
Materials and Methods: An informed written consent was obtained in every case.
A 5ml blood sample was withdrawn. All the patients detailed history, general physical examination and ocular examination including visual acuity, intraocular pressure by applanation tonometry, slit lamp examination and fundus examination by biomicroscopy were done. Optical coherence tomography and fundus photograph were also taken.
Conclusion: Patients who were having diabetic retinopathy had higher values of LDL and total cholestrol as compared to those who were not having diabetic retinopathy.
Patients who were having diabetic retinopathy changes had non-significant differences in the level of HDL and triglycerides as compared to those who were not having diabetic retinopathy changes.
Patients with changes of diabetic retinopathy had significantly higher values of foveal thickness as compared to those without changes of diabetic retinopathy. Foveal thickness had correlation with total cholesterol levels.
Keywords: LDL, HDL, Hard exudates, Triglycerides, Foveal thickness, Central macular oedema, Diabetic retinopathy.
