❓What is a comprehensive exam? A comprehensive eye exam is a thorough check of your vision and overall eye health, using specialized tools to detect vision problems, eye conditions, and sometimes signs of broader health issues. It is a different exam from a routine eye exam. Consider it to be more in depth of an exam.

Diabetes and your eyes: What you need to know 😳
* Diabetes damages small blood vessels in the retina (diabetic retinopathy), causing potential leakage, swelling, and vision loss. Key risks include blurred/fluctuating vision, early cataracts, and glaucoma.
*When your blood glucose (blood sugar) levels are above target range, over time, this can lead to diabetes-related eye disease. Diabetes affects your blood vessels, including the blood vessels in your eyes. As the blood vessels in the back of your eye are weakened, they can start to leak, resulting in blurry or cloudy vision.
* It is crucial to get annual comprehensive eye exams to monitor the health of your eyes.
