Diabetic Eye Exam

Diabetes can have a significant impact on your vision, leading to serious eye problems. That’s why it’s crucial to schedule regular checkups with an eye doctor who specializes in diabetic eye care. At Advanced Vision Care in Mansfield, Fort Worth, and DeSoto, Texas, and Cedar Hill Eye Care in Cedar Hill, Texas, we provide eye exams to spot early warning signs of diabetic eye disease and other issues that can affect your vision if left untreated.  

What is diabetic eye disease?  

Diabetic eye disease is a group of eye conditions that can affect people with diabetes, including diabetic retinopathy, cataracts, and glaucoma. These diseases develop when high blood sugar levels damage the blood vessels in the retina, which can lead to vision loss and even blindness. In the early stages, diabetic eye disease may not show any signs or symptoms. However, as the disease progresses, the symptoms may include blurred or hazy vision, floaters, double vision, halos around lights, and difficulty seeing at night. 

Diagnosing diabetic eye disease    

During a diabetic eye exam, our experienced eye doctor will carefully assess your eye health and look for early signs of diabetes-related complications. If we detect any issues, we’ll develop a personalized plan for managing your eye health. This may include lifestyle changes and regular follow-up appointments to keep your eyes healthy and your vision clear.
