Q: Can diabetic retinopathy make me go blind?

A: If left untreated, diabetic retinopathy can lead to blindness. High blood sugar levels damage retinal blood vessels, causing them to leak or become blocked, impairing vision. Early detection through regular eye exams and effective diabetes management are key to preventing severe vision loss.



A PUBLIC ADVISORY FROM THE PHILIPPINE ACADEMY OF OPHTHALMOLOGY: Beware of unproven eye medicine, eye drops, and eye devices that are being peddled as a cure-all or prevention of different eye conditions. Consult your ophthalmologist for the proper care of your eyes.
