Brief Summary
Self monitoring of blood glucose level is crucial in diabetes management, but currently available methods, lancet, have shown low compliance of self monitoring of blood glucose because of pain, keratinization of finger tip, secondary infection. The purpose of this study is evaluating laser lancing device which cause much less pain than lancet to increase compliance of blood sugar checking, and to establish self monitoring system for patients of chronic diseases. The investigators recruit total of 80 type 2 diabetes patients who visit Korea University Medical center Guro and Ansan hospital. HbA1c level of subject is more than 6.5% and less than 8.5%, and their age is above 20 years and under 80 years. Subjects are randomly distributed in group A or B. Group A subjects use laser device to check blood glucose for 2 months, then take a month for wash out period. After wash out period, participants use lancet for following 2 months. Group B perform the process vice versa. The investigators evaluate the number of blood glucose measurement, HbA1c, diabetes distress scale, average pain score, average satisfaction score from each group.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
average number of checking blood glucose per week
Study subject is going to be surveyed about 'average number of checking blood glucose per week' at 2 month after using lancet device, and 2 month after using laser lancing device (LMT-1000)
two months after using the device
glycated hemoglobin level
Study subject is going to be checked glycated hemoglobin level at 2 month after using lancet device, and 2 month after using laser lancing device (LMT-1000). Data will be shown in percent (%).

Study Arms (2)
laser lancing device (LMT-1000) first user
EXPERIMENTALSubjects measure blood glucose using laser lancing device (LMT-1000) for first 2 months, then take a month for wash out period, after that do using lancet for following 2 months.
lancet first user
ACTIVE COMPARATORSubjects measure blood glucose using lancet for first 2 months, , then take a month for wash out period, after that do using laser lancing device (LMT-1000) for following 2 months.
Interventions
Subjects measure blood glucose level using laser lancing device (LMT-1000) and lancet for 2 months each.
