Protein Profile of Immunoregulatory Factors in Diabetic Cataract

Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the levels of several immunoregulatory factors in serums and aqueous humor of type II diabetes cataract patients with those in senile non-diabetic cataract patients since disturbed cytokine and growth factor microenvironment in diabetic eye may contribute to an increased frequency of intraoperative and postoperative intraocular lens surgery complications.
