Diabetes is a leading cause of preventable blindness

Diabetes is when the body cannot properly break down sugar from food into energy. This leads to high blood sugar levels that damage small blood vessels in our eyes. If these damaged blood vessels are not treated in time, the eye may be permanently scarred and blind.

How To Stay Healthy

An annual eye examination is recommended for those who are diagnosed with diabetes. We monitor and cooperate with other health professionals in ensuring no further deterioration in the eyes. This examination is covered with a valid Alberta Health Care Card.

Detect health complications early.
