    This can easily be prevented by undergoing regular dilated retinal examinations as suggested by your doctor and keeping blood sugar levels under control
  • What if Diabetic Retina changes are observed by your doctor during the screening?
    This is good thing that the changes are noticed early in course of the disease vision is not affected and depending upon the severity of changes the doctor may advise simple follow-up and blood sugar control or a laser therapy if he it may arrest further progression to a certain extent.
