Abstract | PURPOSE: MATERIALS AND METHODS: RESULTS: The rates of IEPC and the DOP were significantly higher in the PDR group compared with the NPDR and control groups. Diabetes mellitus (DM) type had no significant effect on these parameters. The rate of SIM was higher in the eyes with PDR compared with the eyes with NPDR and the controls despite use of NSAIDs. CONCLUSION: Our results indicates that eyes with PDR are significantly more prone to IEPC, while the type of DM is not a predictor factor. DOP is longer in the eyes with PDR. In spite of NSAID use, SIM is more commonly observed in eyes with PDR.
