Need dilated exam: Especially being a diabetic, your symptoms are consistent with blood in the eye (vitreous hemorrhage). If so, you may have advanced diabetic retinal/macular disease. The sooner you seek care from a retinal specialist the better your prognosis. Proliferation Diabetic Retinopathy (PDR) is potentially blinding.
