All patients underwent a comprehensive ocular examination including visual acuity, slit-lamp biomicroscopy, intraocular pressure measurement. Central corneal thickness (CCT), endothelial cell density (ECD), coefficient of variance (CV), and percentage of hexagonal cells (HEX) were compared between the cases and controls. Predictors of corneal endothelial dysfunctions were analyzed. Data analysis was done by Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 17.0. Chi-square test, Fisher\u2019s exact test, and Spearman\u2019s rho correlation analysis were used as appropriate.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Patients with T2DM showed poorer visual acuity and higher intraocular pressure. As compared to controls, patients with T2DM had thicker CCT, lesser ECD, decreased HEX, and higher CV but the differences were statistically nonsignificant. HbA1c levels showed a significant positive correlation with CCT and CV and a negative correlation with ECD. Macroalbuminuria and higher albumin creatinine ratio was associated with an increase in CV in patients with T2DM.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
