We understand the unique risks diabetes poses to your vision—and we’re here to help you stay ahead of them.


Why Diabetic Eye Exams Are Essential

Diabetes can cause serious eye conditions that develop without noticeable symptoms in the early stages. That’s why annual diabetic eye exams are vital—even if your vision seems fine.

Common diabetic eye conditions include:

  • Diabetic Retinopathy – damage to the blood vessels in the retina, which can lead to vision loss

  • Diabetic Macular Edema – swelling in the retina that can cause blurry vision

  • Cataracts – develop earlier and progress faster in diabetic patients

  • Glaucoma – increased pressure in the eye that can damage the optic nerve


Early detection through routine diabetic eye exams allows us to identify and treat these conditions before they cause permanent damage.


What to Expect During a Diabetic Eye Exam

At Visionaire Optometry, we use advanced diagnostic technology to thoroughly examine your eyes and detect any signs of diabetic damage.

Your diabetic eye exam includes:

  • Visual acuity testing – to assess how clearly you see

  • Dilated retinal exam – to examine the back of your eye for diabetic retinopathy or macular edema

  • Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) – high-resolution imaging to detect swelling or damage

  • Intraocular pressure testing – to screen for glaucoma

  • Personalized care plan – tailored to your eye health and diabetic history


We also coordinate with your primary care doctor or endocrinologist to ensure your eye health is fully integrated into your diabetes management plan.


Why Early Intervention Matters for Diabetics

The longer diabetes is uncontrolled, the higher the risk of vision loss and eye complications. Early intervention helps:

  • Prevent vision loss and blindness

  • Reduce the need for invasive treatments

  • Support overall health through proactive care


Even if you have no symptoms, yearly diabetic eye exams are your first line of defense.
