10.01.2022 Local Vision Diabetic Eye Disease Research in Tasmania! Diabetic eye disease is a major cause of vision loss, affecting around 40% of those living with diabetes and over 16,000 Tasmanians.... Blindness is one of the most feared effects of diabetes and, although it is not fatal, lost vision contributes enormously to a reduction in quality of life for diabetes patients. The lack of mobility that poor vision brings can also have a knock-on effect upon efforts to reduce weight and prevent heart disease. Unfortunately, these are the primary cause of death for people with diabetes. But there is good news! The treatment of diabetic eye disease has been revolutionised in recent years by the use of anti-VEGF drugs that are injected directly into the eye. In many patients, these treatments can restore lost vision or prevent deterioration of vision. Read more https://bit.ly/38JiaAx
