November is Diabetes Awareness Month and
time to remind the public to visit their team of health care experts,
including an optometrist. Diabetes, which affects 29 million Americans,
can result in serious eye and vision disorders that present subtle
symptoms but ultimately can lead to vision loss. However, with new
technology, coupled with yearly, comprehensive eye exams, patients can
remain one step ahead and avoid serious eye health complications.
