Diabetes doesn’t just affect your blood sugar, it can quietly damage your vision.
In the early stage, non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR), the tiny blood vessels in the retina begin to weaken and leak. As it progresses to moderate and severe NPDR, more damage occurs, affecting how the retina functions.
In advanced stages, proliferative diabetic retinopathy, new abnormal blood vessels grow. These vessels are fragile and can bleed into the eye, leading to blurred vision, floaters, or even severe vision loss.
The most concerning part? It can develop without obvious symptoms at the beginning.
If you have diabetes or it runs in your family, regular eye examinations are essential for early detection and prevention.
Don’t wait for vision changes.
