Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is a diabetes complication affecting the eyes, potentially leading to blindness. It damages the blood vessels of the retina, causing vision issues. Diabetic retinopathy often shows no early symptoms; thus, regular eye exams are crucial for diabetes patients to detect and manage this condition timely.
