The good news is that managing your blood sugar levels and having regular eye exams can help prevent or slow down the progression of diabetic retinopathy. Even if you don’t notice any changes in your vision, Dr. Priya can detect early signs of damage through a comprehensive eye exam. Early treatment can prevent serious vision problems.

If diabetic retinopathy is detected, your doctor may recommend treatments such as laser therapy, injections, or surgery to stop the growth of abnormal blood vessels and preserve your vision. Keeping your diabetes under control with proper diet, exercise, and medications is also critical in protecting your eyes.

If you have diabetes, regular visits to Dr. Priya are essential. Catching diabetic retinopathy early can save your sight, so be sure to schedule annual eye exams and seek help if you notice any changes in your vision. Dr. Priya will work with you to create a treatment plan that protects your eye health as part of your overall diabetes care.
