# values are statistically significantly correlated (p≤0.05) with glucose within the non-diabetic patients with eye disorders (NDED) or proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) group. ρ - Spearman correlation analysis coefficient; p- level of statistical significance (p≤0.05) of Spearman correlation analysis.
