Diabetes can have serious consequences for your eyes, including conditions like diabetic retinopathy, macular edema, and even vision loss. Regular eye exams are essential for managing these risks.
- What Diabetic Eye Exams Detect:
- Early signs of retinopathy, which occurs when high blood sugar damages retinal blood vessels.
- Swelling or fluid in the macula (macular edema).
- Glaucoma or cataracts, which are more common in diabetics.
- How Often Should You Go? Diabetics should have a comprehensive dilated eye exam at least once a year—or more frequently if recommended by your doctor.
- What We Offer: Advanced diagnostic tools and personalized care to monitor your eye health and manage complications.
