Diabetes Retinopathy Overview
Diabetes can damage the small blood vessels in part of your eye. This part of the eye is called the retina. It detects light that enters the eye. Then it sends signals to your brain about what the eye sees.
When this type of eye damage happens, it’s called diabetic retinopathy. It can lead to poor vision and even blindness.
Symptoms of diabetic retinopathy
- Blurred, double, or distorted vision or trouble reading.
- Floaters or spots in your vision.
- Partial or total loss of vision. Or you might have a shadow or veil across your field of vision.
- Pain, pressure, or constant redness of the eye.
What causes diabetic retinopathy?
Diabetes damages small blood vessels throughout the body. If you aren’t able to keep your blood sugar levels in a target range, it can cause damage to your blood vessels. Diabetic retinopathy happens when high blood sugar damages the tiny blood vessels of the retina.
