Diabetic retinopathy screening and treatment
Diabetic retinopathy is a serious eye condition that affects individuals with diabetes, potentially leading to vision loss if left untreated. It occurs due to damage to the blood vessels in the retina, the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye. Early detection and timely intervention are crucial in preserving vision and preventing complications.
Screening for Diabetic Retinopathy
Regular screening tests help identify diabetic retinopathy at an early stage, even before symptoms appear. At Yashoda Nethralaya, we offer:
Dilated Eye Examination – The pupil is dilated using eye drops to examine the retina for signs of damage.
Fundus Photography – High-resolution imaging of the retina to detect early changes.
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) – A non-invasive scan to assess retinal thickness and swelling.
Fluorescein Angiography – A special dye is injected into the bloodstream to highlight blood vessel abnormalities.
Stages of Diabetic Retinopathy
Mild Non-Proliferative Retinopathy – Small bulges in the blood vessels (microaneurysms) may appear.
Moderate Non-Proliferative Retinopathy – Blockage of some retinal blood vessels.
Severe Non-Proliferative Retinopathy – More significant blood vessel damage, leading to oxygen deprivation.
Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy – Growth of abnormal blood vessels, increasing the risk of bleeding and vision loss.
Treatment Options
The treatment approach depends on the severity of the condition:
Laser Treatment (Photocoagulation) – A laser is used to seal leaking blood vessels and reduce swelling.
Intravitreal Injections – Anti-VEGF injections help control abnormal blood vessel growth and reduce retinal swelling.
Vitrectomy Surgery – In advanced cases, surgery is performed to remove blood and scar tissue from the retina.
Preventing Diabetic Retinopathy
Maintain good blood sugar control.
Monitor blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
Regular eye check-ups for early detection and treatment.
Adopt a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet and exercise.
At Yashoda Nethralaya, we provide comprehensive diabetic eye care, from early screening to advanced treatment options, ensuring the best possible vision outcomes. Book an appointment today for expert diabetic retinopathy care.
