Diabetes & Eye Health: It's more than just vision!
As part of our National Diabetes Awareness Month series, we're highlighting the importance of diabetic eye exams — because managing diabetes means protecting your vision, too.
During a comprehensive diabetic eye exam, we look at more than just how well you see. We check for:
👁️ Retinal health – to detect signs of diabetic retinopathy
👁️ Blood vessel changes – which can indicate damage or early complications
👁️ Blood pressure impact – high BP can worsen eye conditions, this is why we take your blood pressure during all of your visits.
Many eye complications from diabetes have no early symptoms, but early detection can protect your sight. Even if your vision seems fine, make your diabetic eye exam an annual habit.
