Diabetic retinopathy is an eye condition caused by damage to the small blood vessels in the retina from diabetes. Early on, many people may not notice symptoms, but as the condition progresses, vision can become blurry, spotty, or darker. Some people may see floating spots or have trouble seeing clearly at night. With proper treatment and regular monitoring, doctors can help protect vision and reduce the risk of severe vision loss, allowing patients to maintain independence in their daily lives.
