Advanced Retina Screening for Diabetic Patients | Vision Plus Eye Clinic
Protect Your Vision from Diabetes-Related Eye Damage
Diabetes can silently damage the blood vessels of the retina, leading to a condition known as Diabetic Retinopathy. If left untreated, it can cause permanent vision loss and blindness. At Vision Plus Eye Clinic, Thergaon, Dr. Kalpita Raut provides comprehensive diabetic eye examinations, retina screening, and early detection services to help protect your eyesight.
What is Diabetic Retinopathy?
Diabetic Retinopathy is a complication of diabetes that affects the retina, the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. High blood sugar levels can damage retinal blood vessels, causing leakage, swelling, and abnormal blood vessel growth.
Many patients experience no symptoms during the early stages, making regular eye examinations essential.
Common Symptoms of Diabetic Retinopathy
Blurred or fluctuating vision
Dark spots or floaters
Difficulty reading
Distorted vision
Reduced night vision
Sudden vision loss
Black patches in the field of vision
If you experience any of these symptoms, schedule an eye examination immediately.
Who Should Get a Diabetic Retina Checkup?
A retina examination is recommended for:
Patients with Type 1 Diabetes
Patients with Type 2 Diabetes

Annual diabetic eye screening is recommended even if your vision appears normal.
