Myopia and Floaters?
Whereas I cannot make any assessments or recommendations in your particular case, in general, floaters are a common complaint that patients bring up in the retina clinic. While floaters can be a symptom of a serious eye disease, often floaters are benign. Floaters tend to be more common in nearsighted people. A dilated eye exam should help distinguish benign floaters from floaters arising in the setting of a serious eye disease. READ MORE
How does having diabetes affect your vision long-term?
Hello, thank you for the question. Diabetes can cause diabetic retinopathy, which can be progressive and even cause blindness if not diagnosed and treated appropriately. It is often a painless condition and patients often are not aware of having it until it progresses to vision loss. It's important that patients with diabetes have regular dilated screening eye exams and seek care from a retinal surgeon once diabetic retinopathy develops, especially if it's progressive. READ MORE
