Primary Care
Everyone who has diabetes should have a dilated eye exam at least once a year. This is not just a "glasses check". Because diabetes can damage retinal blood vessels, you need your eyes dilated so that your eye doctor can look for early signs of diabetic retinopathy. Without proper treatment, diabetic retinopathy can be a blinding disease. Initially there may be no changes in vision. However, even at this early stage, your eye doctor may detect retinal leakage or bleeding. If your eyes are affected, there are very effective treatments that can help you maintain or even restore the health of your eyes. Of course, good blood sugar control and following the recommendations of your primary care doctor is paramount.
