Evaluation of corneal densitometry using Pentacam in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a controlled cross-sectional study

In this study, CD values were found to be significantly higher in patients with Type 2 DM compared to healthy individuals. This finding suggests that chronic hyperglycemia may lead to both morphological and functional changes in the corneal tissue.
