Does diabetes cause farsightedness?

Patient's question:

I want to consult about why hypoglycemia occurs. Today, while chatting with a colleague, the topic of this question came up, and we weren't very clear if diabetes can cause hypoglycemia. Because I have diabetes, I'd like to understand the reasons for hypoglycemia?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, the degree to which human hyperopia has a shorter axial length is not very low and is not less than 2mm. According to ophthalmic optics, each 1mm elongation is approximately equivalent to a 3D refractive change, and below 6D hyperopia is rare, but there is also high hyperopia, and some eyes, even without other pathological changes, can reach up to 24D. In pathological abnormal development, such as microphthalmia, the degree of hyperopia can even be lower than 24D.
