**14. Sugar, and ophthalmoplegia**

Ophthalmoplegia is a rare adverse effect of diabetes mellitus. It is often associated with multiple cranial nerve palsies affecting nerve III, IV, and VI. Patients with ophthalmoplegia secondary to diabetes often make a full recovery after 12 weeks of the onset of the condition [47]. A study by Kahtani et al. [48] reported ophthalmoplegia to be more common in male than female diabetic patients. Medial squint and Ptosis have also been reported in patients with acute vasculitis due to diabetes mellitus.
