Conclusion:This study found a significant correlation between glucose level fluctuations and intraocular pressure (IOP) in diabetics, with higher fasting and postprandial IOP compared to non-diabetics.Routine blood glucose monitoring alongside IOP assessments and effective blood sugar control is recommended for diabetic glaucoma patients.","PeriodicalId":21836,"journal":{"name":"SSR Institute of International Journal of Life Sciences","volume":"11 1","pages":"6695-6701"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://doi.org/10.21276/ssr-iijls.2025.11.1.12","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147915085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
