Objective: To explore the correlation of ocular surface diseases in patients with diabetes. Methods: 40 patients with diabetes who were admitted to our hospital from December 2020 to December 2021 and 40 patients with ordinary dry eye disease in our hospital at the same time, 80 patients in total, were selected as the research objects. 40 patients with diabetes were taken as the observation group, and 40 patients with ordinary dry eye disease were taken as the control group. Among the patients in the observation group, 22 were male and 18 were female; The average age was (55 ± 8.52) years; In the control group, there were 21 males and 19 females; The average age was (58 ± 7.45) years; There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of gender, age and other general data (P>0.05). Results: The prevalence of dry eye in the observation group was 88.2% higher than that in the control group (78.2%). The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05), indicating that the prevalence of dry eyes in the observation group was higher than that in the control group. Conclusion: Compared with the control group, diabetes patients in the observation group have a higher prevalence of ocular surface diseases. diabetes can cause ocular surface diseases, which can lead to instability of tear film, reduction of tear secretion, and decline of corneal perception.
