Abstract:
Nowadays, diabetes is quickly emerging as one of the biggest health-related catastrophes over the world. Its impact on people's quality of life has been gradually taken seriously. In the past few years, the connection linking dry eye to diabetes has been substantially confirmed by a series of studies. However, many areas remain uncertain due to the complex and diverse pathogeneses of diabetes related dry eye syndrome. Furthermore, the slow progression of dry eye symptoms easily conceals its connection with diabetes, which brings great challenges to timely diagnosis and effective interventions. This article aims at improving the clinical understanding of this kind of disease and standardizing its diagnosis and treatment by outlining the correlation between diabetes and dry eye.
