Caring for Your Diabetes and Your Eyes
Diabetes can affect your health in a variety of ways, and when left unaddressed, can result in permanent vision loss. At Granite Pointe Eye Care, our team is skilled in looking after our diabetic patients, and we’re trained to identify and manage one of its most serious complications: diabetic retinopathy.
Detect It Before It Impacts Your Vision
We can best check for potential signs of diabetic retinopathy during a comprehensive eye exam using advanced technology, like optical coherence tomography, electroretinogram, and fundus photography. We’ll check your eyes in-depth to diagnose this condition, even before you experience symptoms. Some signs of diabetic retinopathy exist, such as an increase in floaters, blurry vision, blank or dark areas in your field of vision, and difficulty seeing at night. Unfortunately, by the time you notice these symptoms, irreparable damage has already happened to your eyesight — which is why early detection is so crucial!
A Management Plan For You
If you are diagnosed with diabetic retinopathy or are at risk due to having diabetes, our compassionate doctors will formulate a care plan that meets your specific needs. We’ll also work with you to adopt lifestyle adjustments to keep your blood sugar in check so your sight is protected. Our experienced doctors also frequently recommend EyePromise Diabetes Vision Support supplements as part of your regimen to support your retinal health and keep your sight clear.

We provide thorough eye care to our patients and are steadfast in catching diabetic retinopathy early, long before it can hurt your sight. Our team will take the time to get to know you on a personal level, then customize your treatment plan to fit your lifestyle.
