Your blood sugar levels may be high because your body can\u2019t make or use insulin properly. Too much sugar can build up in your blood, causing damage to nerves and blood vessels in your body.<\/p>\n<p>When the damage occurs in the blood vessels in your eyes, this can lead to vision loss or blindness. Anyone with diabetes is at risk, so it\u2019s important to get routine eye exams.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Signs and Symptoms of Eye Damage<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Diabetes can affect your eyes in different ways. When your blood sugars are high or when you start insulin therapy, you may experience blurry vision or other vision problems. But your eyes may be damaged even if you don\u2019t actually notice any changes. Don\u2019t wait for symptoms to arise to get your vision checked.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Diabetic Retinopathy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The retina receives light coming into your eye and sends messages to your brain about the things you see. When blood glucose builds up, the blood vessels inside the retina may be damaged \u2013 this is called diabetic retinopathy. At first you may not notice any changes. But as time passes, these blood vessels may develop fragile defects in the blood vessel walls, which can leak fluid. As diabetes progress, fragile blood vessels grow throughout the retina. This can result in severe loss of vision and even blindness.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Treatment \u2013 Laser Surgery<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Retinopathy can be detected during thorough eye exams. A special type of angiogram uses dye to find leaking blood vessels. Early stages of diabetic retinopathy often can be treated with laser surgery known as photocoagulation. The laser seals the blood vessels in order to stop them from leaking and growing. Laser surgery cannot restore lost vision. Combined with follow-up care, however, surgery can lower your chances of blindness by as much as 90%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Treatment \u2013 Vitrectomy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In advanced stages of diabetic retinopathy \u2013 if the retina has detached or a lot of blood had leaked into your eye \u2013 your doctor may suggest vitrectomy. This surgical treatment removes scar tissue, blood, and cloudy fluid from inside the eye. Vitrectomy can improve your vision, especially it it\u2019s done before the disease has progressed very far.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Diabetic Retinopathy Risk Factors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Risk factors for diabetic retinopathy include how well you control your blood sugar and blood pressure. Control of blood cholesterol may also help reduce the risks. Your chances of developing diabetic retinopathy increase the longer you have diabetes. Eventually, nearly everyone with diabetes will develop some degree of retinopathy.<\/p>\n<p>Diabetic Retinopathy Prevention<\/p>\n<p>You can help prevent eye problems by keeping your blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol under control. A major study found that people with diabetes who managed their diabetes intensely had \u00bc the rate of diabetic retinopathy as those who followed standard diabetes treatment. It also helps to stop smoking. And it\u2019s very important to get an annual dilated eye exam to detect early signs of the disease.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Glaucoma and Diabetes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Anyone over 40 is at increased risk of glaucoma, but people with diabetes are 40% more likely to develop it. Your chances increase the longer you have diabetes. Glaucoma may cause bright halos or colored rings around lights, but usually has no symptoms. Untreated, it can cause an increase in eye pressure that damages the optic nerve, resulting in vision loss and blindness. Glaucoma can be treated with drops to lower eye pressure, or laser or conventional surgery.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cataracts and Diabetes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re diabetic, you\u2019re 60% more likely to develop cataracts \u2013 and you\u2019re more likely to get them at a younger age than people without diabetes. Poor control of blood sugar can accelerate this condition. With a cataract, the lens in the eye becomes cloudy, which blocks light and makes everything look hazy. Cataract surgery \u2013 when the eye\u2019s natural lens is replaced with an artificial lens \u2013 can help vision. Sometimes diabetic retinopathy can get worse after cataract surgery.<\/p>\n<p><strong>See Your doctor<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re diabetic and have any of these symptoms, see your doctor:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Blurry or hazy vision for more than 2 days<br \/>\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Spots, floaters, or shadows<br \/>\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Severe eye pain or pressure<br \/>\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sudden vision loss in one or both eyes<br \/>\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sense that a curtain is coming down over your eyes<br \/>\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Flashing lights, double vision, or blind spots<br \/>\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Waviness or distortion of straight lines<\/p>\n<p>What I have presented to you are reasons you need to take diabetes seriously; you need to protect your precious \u2018baby blues.\u2019 In fact you need to start thinking about your kidney, heart, limbs, brain and so many other areas this dreaded disease can affect.<\/p>\n<p>Take care now.<\/p>\n<p>See you next week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Diabetes can increase your risk of eye problems.
