Diabetic retinopathy is the most common diabetic eye disease. It occurs when blood vessels in the retina change and become damaged or new abnormal blood vessels grow on the surface of the retina. People with diabetic retinopathy usually do not notice changes in their vision until the disease progresses to advanced stage. It is very important for people with diabetic retinopathy to see an ophthalmologist every year and maintain a good blood sugar control.

ROP CARE

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is an eye problem seen in some premature babies. In babies with ROP the blood vessels in the retina have developed abnormally after birth. Most premature babies do not develop any ROP. In premature babies who do develop ROP it is usually mild and goes away by itself, without causing any problems with vision. Retinopathy of prematurity causes blood vessels to grow abnormally in the retina, the light-sensitive nerve tissue that lines the inside back wall of the eye. Infants with more severe ROP may need laser therapy, cryotherapy (a freezing procedure) or, rarely, eye surgery.

It is highly recommended that new born children or at the earliest possible age undergo examination by a Paediatric Ophthalmologist to rule out congenital (from birth) eye disorders. This is even more important for children who were born premature, had delayed milestones, or have a family history of eye disorder
