Figure 1

Comparison of ocular surface parameters between diabetic patients and healthy controls. The SPEED score (a), meiboscore (c), lipid layer thickness values (d), Schirmer I results (e), corneal sensitivity (g), and SPK score (h) were significantly different between the diabetic and the healthy control group. The differences in NI-BUT (b), TMH (f), and blinks (i) did not reach statistical significance between the diabetic and control groups (, , and ).
