Screenings and prevention to mark World Diabetes Day
Diabetes is characterised by chronic hyperglycaemia, i.e. an excess of sugar in the blood, resulting in excessively high glucose levels.
This chronic disease affects many organs, including the eyes. Regular monitoring is important, as most of the effects of diabetes on the eye do not cause symptoms until they are very advanced. Diabetic patients are two to five times more likely to develop eye disease.
That's why our centres are offering a week of eye screenings for diabetic patients.
