One of my patients, in his 50's, let's name him Ben, came for a check-up last week complaining of blurred vision. According to Ben, he has been experiencing this for the past four months now. He was using over-the-counter eye drops but with zero relief. Ben has no family history of eye problems. I carried out some basic eye tests, which weren't of a help to draw out a conclusion or a cause, and that's when I referred Ben to an eye specialist for a comprehensive eye test and management. The results showed that the blood vessels at the back of his eyes were damaged.
This rose curiosity and we decided to run further tests which revealed that he has diabetic retinopathy; a medical condition whereby blood vessels at the back of Ben's eye are damaged due to existing high blood glucose, which later turns into diabetes.

Nice one, the fact is one can not be too careful with with his life.

However, I actually came to read the early signs of diabetis.
