Diabetes Can Affect Your Vision—Even Before You Notice It.
Diabetes doesn't just affect your blood sugar. It also increases the risk of **diabetic retinopathy** and **glaucoma**, two conditions that can lead to permanent vision loss.
The challenge is that these conditions often develop silently, with few or no symptoms in the early stages.
If you have diabetes, make it a habit to have a comprehensive eye examination at least once a year. Early detection can help preserve your vision.
