WHAT IS DIABETIC RETINOPATHY?

Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes that affects your eye. High blood sugar levels can result in the blockage of tiny blood vessels that supply nourishment to the retina of your eye. With the blockage cutting off blood supply, your eye attempts to grow new blood vessels which do not develop properly and can leak easily. The damaged blood vessels and abnormal new ones can cause vision loss.

Consult your ophthalmologist for more information.



A PUBLIC ADVISORY FROM THE PHILIPPINE ACADEMY OF OPHTHALMOLOGY: Beware of unproven eye medicine, eye drops, and eye devices that are being peddled as a cure-all or prevention of the different eye conditions. Consult your ophthalmologist for the proper care of your eyes.

WHAT IS PTERYGIUM OR SURFER'S EYES?

A pterygium is a noncancerous growth of the conjunctiva or mucous membrane that covers the white part of the eye over the cornea (clear front covering of the eye). Also called surfer's eye, a pterygium is often shaped like a wedge. It usually does not cause problems or require treatment, but can be removed if it interferes with vision.

Ask your eye doctor for more information about Pterygium or Surfer’s eyes.
