A member asked:
Is it common for person with diabetes to loose vision over time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Yes particularly if blood sugar is uncontrolled for a long time. High blood sugar damages the blood vessesl and retina of the eye which leads to vision loss. Also very high or fluctuating blood sugars can causes temporary changes in vision which improve when blood sugar improves.
