Diabetic Retinopathy
According to the AOA, "Diabetes is a disease that interferes with the body's ability to use and store sugar and can cause many health problems. Diabetic retinopathy occurs when small blood vessels in your eyes become damaged. These blood vessels nourish your eye's retina, the delicate, light-sensitive lining of the back of the eye." Diabetic Retinopathy is more common in adults and can affect your overall eyesight.
