Diabetic Eye Treatment

Diabetes is a major cause of blindness in the United States!

Diabetic retinopathy accounts for at least 12% of new cases of blindness each year in the United States.  People with diabetes are 25 times more at risk for blindness than the general public.  Over a lifetime, 70% of people with insulin-dependent diabetes will develop serious diabetic retinopathy, and 40% will develop macular edema.  Both complications, if untreated, often lead to serious vision loss.
