Evaluation of Corneal Endothelial Changes After Uneventful Phacoemulsification in Diabetic and Non-diabetic Patients in Relation to the Level of Glcosylated Hemoglobin Level

Evaluation of corneal endothelial changes after uneventful phacoemulsification in diabetic and non-diabetic patients using specular biomicroscopy in relation to the level of glcosylated hemoglobin level

86 patients will be divided into two equal groups of diabetic and non-diabetic patients will undergo phacoemulsification of cataract will be evaluated thier endocelium before surgery and 3 weeks after surgery to detect the effect of level of glcosylated hemoglobin on the endothelial changes after uneventful phacoemulsification
