Results: Average Total score of the quality of life of the participants are 58.32±19.62 and men had higher scores than women in all aspects of quality of life. There was no significant relationship among the dimensions of physical, mental, and the quality of life with HbA1C. but there was significant relationship between education level and marital status, quality of life and its dimensions (p> 0.05).
