Protecting Your Vision from Diabetes
Diabetes affects many parts of the body, and the eyes are no exception. One of the most serious eye complications is diabetic retinopathy, a condition where high blood sugar levels damage the tiny blood vessels of the retina — the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye.
At our specialized Diabetic Retinopathy Services, we are committed to early detection, advanced treatment, and lifelong vision protection* for people living with diabetes.
– Non-proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (NPDR): Early stage with blood vessel leakage causing swelling (edema) and hemorrhages.
– Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (PDR): Advanced stage where new, fragile blood vessels grow, risking serious vision loss.
– Diabetic Macular Edema (DME): Swelling at the center of the retina (macula) causing blurring and distortion of vision.
– Comprehensive Diabetic Eye Screening:
– Fundus photography
– Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)
– Fluorescein Angiography for detailed vessel mapping
– Advanced Laser Treatments:
– Focal and grid laser for macular edema
– Panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) for proliferative changes
– Intravitreal Injections:
– Anti-VEGF agents (like Avastin, Eylea, Lucentis) to reduce swelling and control new vessel growth
– Steroid injections for refractory cases
– Vitrectomy Surgery:
– For advanced diabetic eye disease with bleeding (vitreous hemorrhage) or retinal detachment.
– Blood Sugar and Blood Pressure Counseling:
– Integrated care approach to address systemic control, key to long-term vision preservation.
