Diabetic Retinopathy
What is Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is an eye condition caused by Diabetes. It happens when the blood vessels in the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye are damaged (retina).
At first, diabetic retinopathy might not show any signs or cause only mild problems with vision. But in the worst cases, it can make you go blind.
Most frequently, Individuals with type 1 or type 2 diabetes can develop the disease. The longer you have diabetes and the less your blood sugar is under control, the greater your risk of developing this eye issue.

The symptoms of diabetic retinopathy include:
- Observing spots or floaters.
- Blurring of vision
- A black or empty spot in the middle of one's field of view.
- Inability to see well at night.
These symptoms might be moderate or severe and have a tendency to fluctuate.
What Causes Diabetic Retinopathy?
It is caused by any alternations in the blood vessels that supply the retina. In some diabetic patients, the blood vessels in the retina may enlarge and discharge fluid. While other patients experience the atypical growth of blood vessels on the surface of the retina. All these changes cause diabetic retinopathy. In severe cases, these changes even may lead to vision loss.

1. Visual Acuity Test

2. Tonometry
