Diabetic retinopathy does not usually have any symptoms at first. It's usually found when you go to your diabetic eye screening appointments.
In the later stages, symptoms can include:
-Your eyesight getting worse
-Blurred vision
-Dots and lines (floaters) in your vision
-Finding it harder to see in the dark or low light
The symptoms may gradually get worse over time. It can eventually lead to sight loss.
Symptoms can affect one or both eyes.
If you have any concerns please seek medical advice.
