Hello,
Eye is one of the organs which gets affected in diabetes. The symptoms may be due to diabetic retinopathy is a complication of persistent hyperglycemia.
I would advice my patient to consult an eye doctor and get his eye examined for vision and retinal damage. Laser therapy is the treatment for retinopathy. Control of blood sugar slows the progression of the condition.
