We understand the high-risk diabetic patients face of developing various eye conditions as a result of their diabetes. A common diabetes-associated disease is Diabetic Retinopathy. US statistics show that 40% of people with Diabetes will develop some type of Diabetic Retinopathy. As a result of the damage it causes, Diabetes compromises the blood vessels in the eye, causing fluid or blood to leak behind the retina. New blood vessels can grow on the retina, causing even more damage and a reduction in vision. Cataracts are another condition that can develop as a result of this type of eye disease. We use several tests to determine whether you are a victim of Diabetic Retinopathy. These are Fluoresce in angiography, Retinal exam, tonometry test, visual acuity test and dilated eye examination. Once diagnosed, we'll get you on a special treatment plan that minimizes imminent risks. We perform experienced diabetes eye care for our patients.
