Abstract
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is among the most common diabetic complications and is the leading cause of blindness among working‐aged individuals worldwide. The prevalence of DR varies from 20‐80% in different studies. Recent estimates suggest that the number of people with diabetic retinopathy will increase to 191 million by 2030. Diabetic retinopathy has a complex process. Many risk factors for DR have been established, such as poor glycaemic control, long duration of diabetes, smoking, inflammation, obesity and hypertension. Stratton et al. have given evidence that poor glycaemic control and long duration of diabetes are independent risk factors of DR. Patient consent was taken and patient vitamin D was done and patient underwent fundoscopy after which the vitamin D level was correlated with fundoscopic findings. We found that out of 50 patient using the student t test when compared with HbA1c level found that 21 cases had HbA1c level more than 7 and 29 cases had HbA1c level less than 7. with the use chi square test we found the values that in cases 20 (95.2%) out of 21 had uncontrolled blood glucose level and HbA1c level more than 7 and in control out of 29, 21 (72.4%) had good control of blood glucose level and HbA1c level less than or equal to 7.
