The Link Between Diabetes and Your Eyes
- Loss of central vision
- Blurry vision
- Flashes of light in field of vision
- Inability to see colours
- Black spots or holes in vision

As many as one million Canadians are living with undiagnosed diabetes. Many assume that a visit to a general practitioner is the only way to diagnose diabetes; however, a comprehensive eye exam by an optometrist can lead to early detection of diabetes, reduce the risk of vision loss, and minimize the risk of other life threatening complications such as heart disease and kidney failure.
Optometrists can often see indicators of diabetes in the eyes before the disease is formally diagnosed. To learn more about the impact that diabetes may have on your eye, book regular appointments with a local doctor of optometry.
