To determine whether diabetes mellitus is protective for nuclear sclerotic cataract at baseline and 6 and 12 months after vitrectomy surgery. Prospective interventional cohort study Phakic diabetic and non-diabetic patients undergoing vitrectomy surgery for a variety of retinal conditions underwent Scheimpflug lens photography in the operated and fellow eye at baseline and 6 and 12 months following vitrectomy surgery. Of 52 eyes included in the analysis, 23 eyes were from diabetic patients, 14 of which had surgery for ischemic retinopathy. At baseline, eyes with ischemic diabetic retinopathy had less nuclear sclerotic cataract than non-ischemic diabetic and non-diabetic eyes. This was true for eyes undergoing vitrectomy surgery (p=0.0001) and for fellow eyes (p=0.003). After vitrectomy surgery, non-ischemic diabetic eyes and non-diabetic eyes developed nuclear sclerotic cataract at the same rate. Diabetic eyes with ischemic retinopathy showed no significant progression of nuclear opacification and, therefore, had significantly less post-vitrectomy nuclear cataract at 6 months (p<1×10−6) and at 12 months (p<0.001) than non-diabetic or non-ischemic diabetic eyes. Normalizing to baseline opacity and adjusting for age and other co-morbidities did not alter this result. Ischemic diabetic retinopathy, not just systemic diabetes mellitus, protected against nuclear sclerotic cataract at baseline and following vitrectomy surgery. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that increased exposure to oxygen is responsible for nuclear cataract formation.
