If you have diabetes, your eyes need extra care. At Coastal Vision Center, we specialize in diabetic eye exams to detect problems early and protect your vision for the future.
Why Diabetic Eye Exams Are Important
Diabetes can damage the small blood vessels in the retina, leading to a condition called diabetic retinopathy. Left untreated, it can cause vision loss and other complications, such as glaucoma and cataracts.
What to Expect During Your Exam
- Dilated Retinal Exam – To check for early signs of diabetic retinopathy.
- Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) – A high-resolution scan of the retina.
- Eye Pressure Testing – To check for glaucoma risk.
- Vision Testing – To assess how diabetes may be affecting your eyesight.
Managing Your Eye Health
Early detection and proper management make all the difference. If we find signs of diabetic eye disease, we will recommend a personalized care plan, which may include laser treatment, injections, or surgery.
