Diabetic Eye Care in Hyderabad – How to Prevent and Manage Diabetic Retinopathy

Introduction: Diabetes and Vision – A Dangerous Connection

Diabetic retinopathy is one of the leading causes of preventable blindness in adults. It occurs when high blood sugar damages the delicate blood vessels in the retina. But here’s the good news β€” early detection and regular eye checkups can protect your sight.

πŸ‘οΈ If you live in Film Nagar, Jubilee Hills, or Banjara Hills β€” CSR Eye Hospital offers specialized diabetic retina care near you.

What is Diabetic Retinopathy?

This condition occurs when prolonged high blood sugar causes the retinal blood vessels to leak or swell, leading to vision problems.

Stages of Diabetic Retinopathy

Stage

Description

NPDR (Non-Proliferative)

Early stage; blood vessels leak fluid or blood

PDR (Proliferative)

New abnormal vessels grow, risk of bleeding & vision loss increases

Who Is at Risk?

  • Type 1 or Type 2 diabetics
  • Diabetes duration of over 5 years
  • Poor blood sugar control
  • High blood pressure or cholesterol
  • Pregnant women with diabetes
  • Smokers

🎯 The longer you’ve had diabetes, the higher your risk.
