Eye Focusing Ability Can Predict Glycated Hemoglobin Level of Type‐1 Diabetes Patients
The study found eye accommodation was significantly affected in recent type-1 diabetes patients, indicating its sensitivity to diabetes. SEM using these ocular measures accounts for one-third of HbA1c variance. Thus, accommodative function assessments could be a simple, noninvasive, and cost-effective method for evaluating HbA1c levels. LoA is not a good predictor of HbA1c.
