Diabetes care includes eye health 👁️
Ahead of World Diabetes Day on 14 November, here’s a reminder that looking after your eyes is part of managing diabetes.
Over time, high blood sugar can damage the tiny blood vessels at the back of the eye. This is called diabetic retinopathy, and in its early stages there are often no symptoms.
That’s why an eye test at least once a year is one of the simplest ways to protect your sight.
