- Drink warm water and warm beverages.
- Avoid direct cold air exposure.
- Take early care of throat, ear or sinus symptoms.

The Department of AIIMS Patna remains committed to providing high-quality ENT services and ensuring better health for the community during the winter season.

Prof. (Dr.) Amit Raj, HOD, Department of Ophthalmology, AIIMS Patna, shares an important awareness message on Diabetic Retinopathy.

Diabetes has become very common today and affects a large number of people. What many do not know is that diabetes can also damage our eyes. This eye disease is called Diabetic Retinopathy.

A very high number of diabetic patients are not aware of this condition. They often miss early symptoms and do not come for screening or treatment on time.

1. Every third patient of Diabetes has Diabetic retinopathy at presentation.
2. There are two types of diabetes: Type 1 and Type 2.
- Around 90% of Type 1 diabetic patients may develop .
- About 50–60% of Type 2 diabetic patients are also at risk.

Globally, 28–30 crore people are living with diabetes, and many of them are likely to develop this eye disease.

The major problem is that patients do not recognise early signs. In the beginning, small haemorrhagic dots or swelling appear in the retina, but vision does not get affected. When the disease progresses, vision becomes blurry, and only then patients visit a doctor. By this time, treatment becomes more difficult.

Dr. Amit Raj advises all diabetic patients to get an eye screening at least once a year.

We are happy to inform that all treatments for Diabetic Retinopathy are available at AIIMS Patna, including:

- Complete eye check-up
- OCT
- Fundus angiography
- Laser treatment
- Anti VEGF Injections
- Vitrectomy Procedures

AIIMS Patna also has a Cornea Transplant facility and a fully functional .

- Spend some time in sunlight
- Continue regular walking
- Practice simple knee-strengthening exercises like quadriceps and hamstring exercises

If symptoms persist, it is advisable to consult an Orthopaedic Surgeon.
