Detailed ophthalmologic examination was performed with all participants. CMT was measuredin both groups by Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. CCT measurements were made with anEchoscan US-500 ultrasonic pachymeter. Blood biochemical tests for glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and fastingplasma glucose levels were run on all patients.Results: The results of the study showed that the mean CCT was significantly thicker in type 2 DM patients563.84 33.25 ?m than in the controls 550.13 28.41 ?m (p 0.039). The mean of CMT was 231.27 37.74?m in the study group and 225.38 38.33 ?m in the control group (p 0.05). No relationship was foundbetween CCT and CMT and HbA1c level in the study and control groups.Conclusions: The mean CCT was significantly thicker in type 2 DM patients without diabetic retinopathy thanin the controls. The mean CMT is thicker in type 2 DM patients without diabetic retinopathy patients than inthe controls, but this difference was not statistically significant. Optical coherence tomography can be a perfectdetector for early detection of DME.en10.18621/eurj.362263info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAcil TıpAdli TıpAlerjiAnatomi ve MorfolojiAndrolojiAnesteziBiyofizikBiyokimya ve Moleküler BiyolojiBiyolojiBiyoteknoloji ve Uygulamalı MikrobiyolojiCerrahiDermatolojiEndokrinoloji ve MetabolizmaEnfeksiyon HastalıklarıFizyolojiGastroenteroloji ve HepatolojiGenel ve Dahili TıpGeriatri ve GerontolojiGöz HastalıklarıHalk ve Çevre SağlığıHematolojiHücre BiyolojisiİmmünolojiKadın Hastalıkları ve DoğumKalp ve Kalp Damar SistemiKlinik NörolojiKulakBurunBoğazMikrobiyolojiNörolojik BilimlerOdyoloji ve Konuşma-Dil PatolojisiOnkolojiOrtopediPatolojiPediatriPeriferik Damar HastalıklarıPsikiyatriRadyolojiNükleer TıpTıbbi GörüntülemeRehabilitasyonRomatolojiSağlık Bilimleri ve HizmetleriSolunum SistemiSpor BilimleriTamamlayıcı ve Entegre TıpTemel Sağlık HizmetleriTıbbi Araştırmalar DeneyselTıbbi EtikTıbbi İnformatikTıbbi Laboratuar TeknolojisiTransplantasyonTropik TıpÜroloji ve NefrolojiYoğun BakımTıpArticle44294299
