Diabetic Eye Disease Treatment
Diabetic Eye Disease Treatment at Dr. Sushma Kumari’s Advanced Eye Clinic
Diabetic eye disease is a group of vision problems that can affect people with diabetes. Over time, high blood sugar can damage the blood vessels in the retina, leading to serious eye conditions. At Dr. Sushma Kumari’s Advanced Eye Clinic, we offer comprehensive diagnosis, treatment, and management of diabetic eye diseases to prevent vision loss and ensure optimal eye health.
The most common diabetic eye diseases include diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular edema (DME). Diabetic retinopathy occurs when the blood vessels in the retina leak or become blocked, leading to vision impairment. DME is a complication of diabetic retinopathy that causes fluid to leak into the macula, the part of the eye responsible for central vision, resulting in swelling and blurred vision.
Dr. Sushma Kumari, with her specialized expertise in treating diabetic eye conditions, uses the latest diagnostic tools to detect these conditions in their early stages. Regular eye exams are essential for people with diabetes, as early detection significantly improves treatment outcomes.
Treatment options for diabetic eye diseases include laser therapy, injections, and vitrectomy surgery. Laser treatment can seal leaking blood vessels and reduce the risk of vision loss. Injections of anti-VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) medications help reduce macular swelling and improve vision. In advanced cases, vitrectomy surgery may be required to remove blood or scar tissue from the retina.
At Dr. Sushma Kumari’s Advanced Eye Clinic, we take a patient-centered approach, creating personalized treatment plans tailored to each individual’s condition. Our goal is to preserve and enhance vision while managing diabetic eye diseases effectively. With regular monitoring and prompt treatment, we help our patients maintain healthy vision and live better lives.
