To investigate the potential role of anterior segment-optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) in identifying the corneal changes (in particular in total corneal, epithelial and stromal thicknesses) in patients affected by type 2 diabetes mellitus, without signs of diabetic retinopathy at fundus examination.~The AS-OCT could represents a valid early biomarker in these patients.
This study evaluates the corneal features using anterior segment - optical coherence tomography in patients affected by type 2 diabetes mellitus
