From the Health Care Ministry
November is National Diabetes Month and our focus will be on one of the complications of diabetes. According to the National Eye Institute more than 30 million people living in the United States have diabetes. Having diabetes increases your risk for vision loss and blindness from diabetic eye disease. The damage to your eyes start when glucose blocks the tiny blood vessels that go to your eyes causing them to bleed or leak fluid. Unfortunately, the longer a person has diabetes the greater the risk of developing retinopathy, cataracts, macular edema and glaucoma which can then impact vision.
Retinopathy is the most common cause of blindness in people with diabetes. In the early stages there may be no symptoms at all. Some people may notice that they have trouble reading or seeing far away. In the later stages blood vessels in the retina begin to bleed into the vitreous (the clear gel that maintains the shape of the eye). If this happens a person may see dark spots, streaks or floaters. Treatment will be needed right away.
Retinol detachment is another risk for people with diabetes. In this case scars form in the back of the eyes. These scars can pull the retina away from the back of the eye causing the detachment. Immediate medical attention is needed to prevent further damage.
The macula is the part of the retina that helps us see details, faraway objects and color. Macular edema is caused by increased leakage from damaged retinal blood vessels. This causes the macula to swell creating blurry vision. If left untreated, this can lead to irreversible damage to the macula and permanent vision loss.
Cataracts are a common condition that affects us as we get older. More than half of Americans over the age of 80 have had cataracts. As we age the lens in the eye become less flexible, less transparent and thicker. When you have diabetes, high blood sugar levels can over time lead to structural changes in the lens of the eye that can accelerate the development of cataracts.
Glaucoma is described as a group of eye diseases that can damage the optic nerve. (the bank of nerves that connect your eye to your brain). Diabetes doubles the chances of you developing glaucoma.
Managing your diabetes is the best way to lower your risk of diabetic eye disease. This means keeping your blood sugar in a healthy range. You can do this by getting regular exercise, eating healthy and following your doctor’s instructions for insulin or other medicines. If you have blurry vision, floaters, dark or empty areas in your vision or trouble seeing colors seek emergency eye care right away. Medical intervention including surgery may be necessary to preserve you vision.

lower your risk for vision loss
