A cataract is a clouding of the natural lens in your eye and affects millions of people each year, including more than half of all Americans over the age of 65. There are many causes of cataracts including genetics, nutrition, life style, medications and the normal aging process. Cataracts cause a progressive, painless loss of vision.
Patients with diabetes are at a higher risk for developing eye conditions because a high blood sugar level can damage blood vessels in the eye. Over 40 percent of patients diagnosed with diabetes develop some form of eye disease as a result. These conditions can cause blood or fluid to leak from the retina or new blood vessels to grow on the surface of the retina which can lead to significant damages to your vision and overall quality of life.
Diabetes has the potential to cause devastating damage to the eye. Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness in adults. High blood sugar levels can lead to leaky blood vessels in the retina, ischemia of the retina and vision loss. Good blood sugar control and regular eye exams are essential for anyone with diabetes.
