Symptom #3: Blind Streaks

We have eyes on the front of our head because this method helps us to triangulate, allowing us to judge distances of objects. This system is common in predators because it is important to know how far away prey is when it comes to hunting. This does, however, give us a limited field of vision in comparison to some other animals.

In addition to a limited field of vision, we also have some blind spots, but we barely notice these. Patients with diabetic retinopathy, however, can find that they develop streaks and spots where they can see nothing at all. This symptom is a sure sign that you need to see somebody to get it checked.
