Diabetes  

Eye Care
Uncontrolled diabetes can damage your vision or even cause blindness. The good news is that vision problems can be avoided with blood sugar control. A yearly visit to an optometrist or ophthalmologist for a retinal exam can help identify vision problems early.

Remember:
An eye specialist can best determine vision problems with an annual dilated retinal exam. Early diagnosis and treatment are key to saving your sight.
