VITREO RETINA AND DIABETIC RETINOPATHY
Our eye functions like a camera, with the objects we see focused on the retina, similar to the film in a camera. In diabetic patients, the lack of proper blood supply affects the retina, which in turn damages the blood vessels, leading to decreased vision.
Symptoms of Diabetic Retinopathy
No symptom in the early stages
Fluctuating vision
Decreased & loss of vision is seen only in late stages
In late stages, loss of vision is permanent if not diagnosed & treated early
TREATMENT
Achieve blood sugar control through proper diet, medicine & exercise.
Regular visit to your eye doctor at least once in six months after diagnosis of diabetes.
Your eye specialist can prevent further loss of vision & treat Diabetic Retinopathy through laser injection and surgery.
