Diabetes

Uncontrolled, or previously uncontrolled diabetes can cause a number of complications in one’s eyes including:

• Diabetic retinopathy
  
• Cataracts
  
• Diabetic macular edema
  
• Optic nerve damage
  

At Abita Eye Group, all doctors are very in tune to the potential blindness that diabetes can cause.  We offer diabetic eye exams using our clinical expertise and the latest equipment to be able to diagnose and treat this disease.
