The results of study showed that for stability rate sugar blood of 29 respondents are unstable. Decrease in visual acuity of 23 respondents were in moderate category. The results of the chi-square test of the stability of blood sugar levels with decreased visual acuity in Diabetes Mellitus type II obtained p value = 0.00 0 so that the p -value < = 0.05 . The results of this study indicate a relationship between the stability of blood sugar levels with decreased visual acuity.It can be concluded that unstable blood sugar levels can affect the decrease in visual acuity in Diabetes Mellitus.
