Diabetic Retinopathy

Diabetic retinopathy is an eye condition that may lead to vision loss and blindness, particularly among people who suffer from diabetes.

High levels of sugar in blood vessels can potentially damage the vessel’s walls and make them leaky. They may also cause blockage of the small capillaries that supply nutrients to the retina. Over time, new leaky blood vessels may form, and more fluid leaks out or bleed. When your retina, the part of your eye that detects light and sends signals to your brain through the optic nerve in the back of your eye is damaged, your vision starts to deteriorate.

Early-stage diabetic retinopathy may not show any signs or symptoms. However, it is important for anyone who suffers from diabetes to check vision periodically. This will help to prevent blindness.

High sugar levels damage blood vessels all over the body. Bring the sugar level back down to normal could take a long time. Meanwhile, it is important to keep your body's circulatory system healthy. FOVIX is designed to support circulatory health by providing crucial nutrients to the blood vessel walls.
