“…It is no coincidence that our finding is also consistent with Yonekawa's report that diabetes is independently associated with visual impairment ( 27 ). The reason for visual impairment in diabetes is that individuals with diabetes are more prone to developing multiple ophthalmic conditions, including diabetic retinopathy ( 28 ), cataract ( 29 ), glaucoma ( 30 ), macular edema ( 31 ), and retinal vein occlusion ( 32 ). In terms of systemic hypertension and stroke, which have also been identified as contributory risk factors for visual impairment, numerous studies have demonstrated that systemic hypertension likely leads to hypertensive retinopathy, fundus hemorrhage, and retinal vein occlusion, which consistently affect visual function ( 33 , 34 ).…”

“…In the initial stage of diabetic cataract, the lens is spotty or snowflake opacity, which can develop into complete lens opacity in a short period of time. At the same time, the eye can also have iris redness, high intraocular pressure, diabetic retinopathy, etc., which aggravate the visual quality impairment and seriously affect the quality of life of patients [6].…”
