If you have diabetes, it is recommended to have an eye exam at least once a year to catch any eye problems early and keep their vision healthy. Early detection is the best way to reduce the risk of vision loss. 

If we find any problems, we create a plan to treat them early, helping to prevent serious vision issues and provide ongoing support to keep your eyes healthy and catch any changes quickly.

People with diabetes are more likely to develop other eye problems like cataracts and glaucoma, which can also affect vision.Diabetes can cause damage to the tiny blood vessels in your eyes, leading to a condition called diabetic retinopathy. This can cause vision problems if not treated.

As part of your exam, we will teach you how to take care of your eyes if you have diabetes. Some key tips include: controlling blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol.
