What is Diabetic Retinopathy?
Diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness among working-age adults in India. With over 77 million diabetics in India and Gurugram's urban lifestyle contributing to rising diabetes rates, this condition demands serious attention.
The condition develops when high blood sugar damages the tiny blood vessels in the retina. In early stages, there may be no symptoms, making regular eye screenings critical for diabetics. If detected early, progression can be slowed or stopped with proper treatment and blood sugar management.
