Diabetic retinopathy

Diabetic retinopathy is a diabetes complication that affects the eyes. What may start as mild vision problems can often progress into severe blurred vision symptoms and eventually blindness. According to the stats, 80% of diabetic people are affected by this problem. Patients usually complain of seeing spots or floaters, losing their sharpness of vision, and having difficulty seeing in dim light and at night.^[1]
