It is of prime importance to examine diabetic patients regularly before the vision drops, so that timely intervention can be done before the condition becomes beyond the scope of treatment A Cross sectional descriptive study of 130 samples, selected by non-probability convenience sampling method and who met the designed set of criteria, was conducted. In this study, as per fundoscopy &Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Scale retinopathy was observed & HbA1C assessed as per ICMR 2018 guidelines. In 94.61% of casesHbA1C was uncontrolled & Controlled in 5.39%. Among all cases 59.23% had moderate degree of retinopathy, 35.38% had mild retinopathy.
