Abstract

People with diabetes mellitus are five times more likely to develop cataracts. High blood sugar levels over a long period of time can be one of the complications of cataracts. This was a correlational study with the purpose to determine the correlation between the duration of diabetes mellitus and the occurrence of cataracts in patients with diabetes mellitus at the Internal Medicine Polyclinic of Medika Utama Hospital, Blitar. The population in this study was patients with diabetes mellitus who visited the Internal Medicine Polyclinic of Medika Utama Hospital, Blitar. The sample in this study was patients with diabetes mellitus who visited the Internal Medicine Polyclinic of Medika Utama Hospital within a period of 2 weeks, totaling 56 people. The sampling used an accidental sampling technique. The statistical test used was chi-square. The results of this study showed that the p-value was 0.449, which meant that there was no correlation between the duration of diabetes mellitus and the incidence of cataracts. Several actions that can be taken to prevent cataracts are controlling blood glucose levels by obediently taking medication and following a diet. In addition, routine eye checks are useful in preventing cataracts in people with diabetes mellitus.
