Abstract

BACKGROUND: The photo stress test, which evaluates how quickly the retina recovers, can be used to assess retinal function. The duration of time required for the macula to recover from exposure to a strong light source is known as the photo stress recovery time (PSRT). Changes in PSRT brought on by eye conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy (DR). And we investigate PSRT ONLY in diabetic patients. In emmetropes the recovery time is 15-30 seconds. But patients with diabetes or any condition of eyes related to diabetes have increased photo stress recovery time up to 50 seconds.

Objectives: To find out photo stress recovery time in diabetic patients and emmetropes and comparison of both diabetic and emmetropes.

Methods: It was a comparative study between diabetic patients and emmetropes.100 participants were examined during this study out of which 50 were diabetic patients and 50 were emmetropes.

Results: The P-value of present results was less the 0.05 which showed that results were significant. So, there was a statistical difference between diabetic patients and emmetropes.

Conclusions: Diabetic patients experience a longer photo stress recovery time, taking 30-50 seconds compared to the normal range of 15-30 seconds in individuals without diabetes. So, results of this comparative study between diabetic patients and emmetropes were significant.
