Diabetic Eye Exams in Davis, CA

What Is a Diabetic Eye Exam?

Diabetic eye exams are similar to regular exams, but with additional focus on diabetes-related eye complications, such as diabetic retinopathy. Diabetic retinopathy symptoms include blurry, fluctuating vision, dark spots, and floating strings — but these symptoms often don’t emerge until they have already permanently damaged your vision.

Our state-of-the-art technology allows our diabetic eye care team to spot the most subtle signs of diabetes-related damage, so we can intervene quickly and implement a personalized treatment plan that best protects your health and vision.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Why Advanced Care for Diabetic Retinopathy Matters

Diabetes can significantly impact your eye health, usually by causing damage to the retina. Retinal imaging is a critical tool that we use to look for signs of diabetic retinopathy. The blood vessels of the eyes offer immediate insight into a patients’ vascular health. Many patients are surprised when we eye doctors detect diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol before their general practitioner. Our goal is to understand your risk factors, discuss your blood sugar control, engage with your primary care provider and/or endocrinologist, and protect your vision. Because diabetes is chronic, we want to be involved in your care for the long-term.
