🩸 Your Blood Sugar and Your Eyes: What You Need to Know
November is Diabetic Eye Disease Awareness Month. When blood sugar levels stay high, they silently stress the tiny blood vessels that nourish the retina, the film at the back of your eye that captures sight. This stress leads to Diabetic Retinopathy.

The Danger: This disease often progresses without causing pain or noticeable vision loss until it's advanced. You could be losing sight before you even realise it.

Your Power Move: A routine dilated eye exam allows us to see this subtle damage years before it impacts your vision. Early treatment can reduce the risk of severe vision loss by up to 90%!

If you have diabetes, prioritise your annual comprehensive eye check. It's the best defence you have against vision loss.

💙 Diabetic Eye Disease Awareness Month
Did you know that a comprehensive eye exam can detect early signs of Diabetic Retinopathy? For anyone managing diabetes, your annual eye check-up is one of the most important appointments you can make! 🩺

High blood sugar can damage the delicate blood vessels in your retina. This condition, known as Diabetic Eye Disease, often has no symptoms in the early stages, meaning we might spot changes long before they impact your vision.

At Tanya Seeber Optometrist, we look beyond your vision score. We check the health of your eyes as part of your overall well-being. Early detection means better protection!

If you or a loved one has diabetes, don't delay your eye exam. Let's keep those eyes healthy together.
