Blurry Vision

If an individual has diabetes, their bodies don’t produce or respond to insulin. This hormone delivers glucose to the cells. Too much glucose in the bloodstream can potentially result in blood vessel and nerve damage, even those connected to your eyes. There are a range of different eye diseases associated with diabetes, including diabetic retinopathy, macular edema, glaucoma, and cataracts. Blurry vision can occur when the eye lens swells due to diabetes. Doctors recommend that individuals make sure their blood sugar levels are controlled before going for an eye exam for new glasses. This is to ensure that you get an accurate eyeglass prescription.
