Corneal Complications of Diabetes: What ODs Need to Know
Given the significant impact this condition can have on a patient’s quality of life, optometrists must have a comprehensive understanding on the potential ocular involvement.

While ocular complications of diabetes tend to focus on diabetic retinopathy, the anterior segment of the eye is frequently overlooked. We are learning that the cornea and ocular surface are also significantly affected by diabetes; however, these complications are often underdiagnosed. Estimates suggest that approximately 70% of patients suffer from corneal complications.

Emmetropia, Myopia and Hyperopia Increase Risk of Anisometropia
A correlation was found between severity and type of refractive error and condition development in preschool children.

The researchers proposed that preschool children who do not initially exhibit signs of anisometropia but have any degree of myopia, significant hyperopia and/or astigmatism should undergo at least one additional refractive measurement. “The significance of follow-up examinations grows with higher initial refractive errors,” the study authors wrote in their paper. “These exams are crucial not only for monitoring refractive changes but also for detecting the potential development of anisometropia and amblyopia.”

"Unhappy Birthday" 🎂 More trips around the sun means more chances for your patients to develop the dreaded presbyopia.

Sometimes I think patients would rather you tell them they have a dreaded eye disease than reference what the problem really is… birthdays.

Everybody wants to live forever, but nobody wants the inevitable side effects of, well, living forever. I recently told a very healthy and active 90-year-old, “You’re going to live until you’re 110!” He said, “I don’t want to live that long,” and I said, “I’ll check back with you when you’re 109.”

You want to see a patient glaze over? Start explaining PRESBYOPIA.
