“…Regarding the examination techniques, Brown et al and Browning et al suggested that OCT is superior to contact lens biomicroscopy for detecting DME, especially in mild cases [19, 20]. Various systemic factors have been associated with increased incidences of DME, such as duration of diabetes [21], levels of albuminuria [15, 21], cholesterol [15, 22], serum creatinine [21], uncontrolled renal parameters, hypertension [15, 23], and aging and genetic defects [24, 25]. Our study confirmed that elevated blood glucose and systolic pressure made significant contributions to DME.…”
