— What is Diabetic Eye Disease?

Diabetic retinopathy is an eye condition that causes changes to the blood vessels in the part of your eye called the retina. That's the lining at the back of your eye that changes light into images. The blood vessels can swell, leak fluid, or bleed, which often leads to vision changes or blindness. It usually affects both eyes. When left untreated, diabetic retinopathy can scar and damage your retina. Diabetic retinopathy is the most common cause of vision loss for people with diabetes. It's the leading cause of blindness for all adults in the U.S.
