Purpose: To assess the relationship between biochemical parameters of diabetes mellitus with pupil responses.

Methods: An observational case control study on 35 participants of diabetes mellitus type 2 and an age matched healthy population formed the ‘control group’. All the participants underwent a standard ophthalmologic examination. Pupillometry was performed using the automated quantitative pupillometry system. Weight, waist circumference and body mass index was documented for all diabetic patients. Diabetic patients were additionally assessed for HbA1c levels, lipid profile.

Results: There was a negative correlation of HbA1c and duration of diabetes mellitus with the static pupillary measurements. There was a significant negative and weak correlation of dynamic resting diameter right eye with the duration of diabetes mellitus, followed by medium correlation with dynamic resting diameter left eye and weak correlation with dynamic amplitude left eye.

Conclusion: Pupillometry can be used to screen the diabetic autonomic neuropathy in diabetic patients.
