Many individuals living with diabetes pay close attention to their vision and overall eye health. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), diabetes can increase the risk for certain vision changes over time, which makes regular check‑ins with an eye‑health professional especially important.
Here is how you can help protect your vision:
🔹Schedule regular eye exams
🔹Keep glucose levels in a healthy range
🔹Eat a diet rich in leafy greens and omega-3 fatty acids
🔹Avoid smoking
If you ever have questions about changes in your vision or your eye‑health routine, your healthcare provider can offer guidance that fits your needs.
