We highly recommend that diabetic patients receive regular eye examinations as part of diabetic eye care. Since diabetic patients are at an increased risk for macular disease, retinopathy, cataracts, glaucoma, dry eye disease, and blurred vision. Without proper diabetic eye care, these conditions can lead to vision loss.

In America, the most common condition that leads to blindness is diabetic retinopathy. In the early stages of diabetic retinopathy, you may not feel any symptoms. There is no pain and vision impairment until the disease becomes severe. This is why regular eye exams are vital for early detection and treatment. There are three types of eye care for diabetic patients depending on the current condition of the patient. If you are at risk of developing the disease, you should get comprehensive eye exams once a year. For those with moderate diabetes eye exams should be done twice a year to protect your vision.

To avoid potential blindness, advanced diabetes patients should visit Clayson Williams Eye Center for exams every three months. Every eye condition is unique. We propose the best solution for your specific needs.
