Diabetic Retinopathy
People suffering from diabetes for a long time can have an eye condition that is called diabetic retinopathy. Diabetics patients are advised to get their eyes checked atleast twice a year. The high blood sugar level of a body results in damage to blood vessels in the retina. These blood vessels swell and leak due to this eye condition. Even, this can stop the passage of blood through vessels. These unwanted variations can damage your vision permanently.
