PURPOSE To evaluate the correlations between central corneal thickness and type 1 diabetes in children. METHODS Central corneal thickness was measured for one hundred children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (study group) and one hundred healthy children (control group), using TOPCON TRK-1P autorefractokeratotonometer. RESULTS The average central corneal thickness in diabetic children was 541.13 +/- 30,985 microns for the right eye and 538.28 +/- 32, 773 microns for the left eye; in control group--528.11 +/- 33,565 microns for the right eye and 526.89 +/- 30,483 microns for the left eye. CONCLUSIONS Diabetic children have a significantly increased central corneal thickness when compared with non-diabetic children.
