wat is your age. anyhow d. retinopathy is a complication due to inadequate management of diabetes . getting a vitreous haemorrhage and laser tt all this show u r not under good control of your diabetes . so go to that ophthalmologist for a follow up and try to control your DM so tat you dont get another bleed. this swollen eyes can be due to the procedure and it wil be ok but have a review with that doc
