Hey there,

Today I want to talk to you about an important topic that often gets overlooked by people living with diabetes. It’s about the link between diabetes and glaucoma, a condition that can silently steal your vision in less than a year if left untreated.

You might be wondering how diabetes and glaucoma are related. Well, high blood sugar levels in people with diabetes can cause damage to the blood vessels in the eyes, leading to a condition called diabetic retinopathy. This can increase your risk of developing glaucoma, a condition that damages the optic nerve and causes gradual loss of vision.

The scary thing about glaucoma is that it can develop silently, without any noticeable symptoms until it’s too late. This is why it’s important to be aware of the silent ways glaucoma can steal your vision in less than a year. These include:

– Tunnel vision

– Blurred vision

– Halos around lights

– Redness in the eyes

– Loss of peripheral vision

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s crucial to get your eyes checked immediately. 

Don’t ignore your eyes and assume that everything is fine. Early detection and treatment can save your vision and prevent irreversible damage.

So, what can you do to take control and save your vision? Here are 7 simple steps:

– Get your eyes checked regularly, especially if you have diabetes.

Keep your blood sugar levels under control.

– Exercise regularly to improve blood flow to the eyes.

– Quit smoking, as it can increase your risk of developing glaucoma.

– Eat a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and omega-3 fatty acids.

– Wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from harmful UV rays.

– Follow your doctor’s advice and take your medications as prescribed.

Remember, your eyes are precious and they deserve to be taken care of. 

Don’t let glaucoma steal your sight. Take control today and protect your vision for the future!
