10 Signs of High Blood Sugar
High Blood Sugar Sign #4: Blurred Vision
Blurry vision is a common sign related to diabetes. Diminished visual acuity in a diabetic patient can be explained due to the increased blood glucose. This creates a water imbalance that can lead to fluid accumulation (edema) in the eye.
In chronic hyperglycemic states seen in diabetic patients, the blood vessels in the retina can become damaged, this condition is known as diabetic retinopathy and it is the leading cause of vision loss in patients suffering from diabetes.
