Abstract
Diabetic cataract is one of the ocular complications caused or aggravated by diabetes mellitus, and the incidence and progression of diabetic cataract is significantly affected by diabetes mellitus. Consequently, it is of significance to investigate the pathogenesis and medical treatment of diabetic cataract. In this article, study methods and outcomes of the pathogenesis of diabetic cataract were reviewed including signaling pathway, influence of inflammatory mediators, variations of related genes, and effect of exosomes and non-coding RNAs. In addition, the research progress and limitations on the drug therapy of diabetic cataract were summarized.
