Abstract
A prospective study was carried out in 200 patients with various stages of CKD on both conservative therapy and in dialysis cohort. The study included 149 Males and 51 Females. The mean age of the patients was 54.7 +/- 12.1 years. Most of the patients were of stage 5 CKD [n=105, 52.5%] and 87 patients were on haemodialysis and 4 were on peritoneal dialysis, while 109 were on conservative therapy. Most common ocular abnormality was cataract [n=128, 64%] out of which 32 patients [16%] patients had undergone cataract surgery. Hypertensive and diabetic retinopathy were the findings in 39% and 28.5% respectively. Intra ocular pressure was normal in the most of the eyes [n=195, 97.5%]. A community based examination involving both nephrologists and ophthalmologists should be carried out to know the true prevalence of ocular changes in CKD patients.
