Common Eye Conditions Related to Diabetes

Diabetic Retinopathy
Damage to the blood vessels in the retina, which can lead to vision loss.
Glaucoma
Increased pressure in the eye, potentially causing optic nerve damage.
Cataracts
A clouding of the eye’s natural lens, making it difficult to see clearly.
Macular Edema
Swelling in the retina, resulting in distorted or blurry vision.

Frequently Asked Questions About Diabetic Eye Care in Long Island
1. How often should I have an eye exam if I have diabetes?
Most people with diabetes should have a comprehensive dilated eye exam at least once a year. However, if you already show signs of diabetic eye disease, our optometrists at Frame Bar. Co may recommend more frequent visits to closely monitor your vision and protect against further damage.
2. What are the first signs of diabetic eye problems?
Early diabetic eye disease often has no noticeable symptoms, which is why routine exams are so important. Some people may eventually notice blurred vision, difficulty focusing, floaters, or dark spots in their vision. If you experience sudden changes in eyesight, contact Frame Bar. Co immediately for an evaluation.
3. Can diabetic retinopathy be reversed?
Diabetic retinopathy cannot usually be reversed once damage has occurred, but early detection and treatment can slow progression and help preserve vision. At Frame Bar. Co, we use advanced diagnostic tools to catch changes early, when treatments are most effective.
4. How does diabetes increase the risk of glaucoma and cataracts?
High blood sugar levels can damage the blood vessels in the eyes and increase eye pressure, leading to glaucoma. Diabetes also changes the structure of the eye’s lens, making cataracts more likely to develop earlier and progress more quickly. Regular diabetic eye care at Frame Bar. Co helps detect and manage these risks before they cause severe vision loss.
5. What can I do to protect my vision if I have diabetes?
The most important steps include controlling blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels, attending annual diabetic eye exams, and following your treatment plan closely. At Frame Bar. Co, we partner with your healthcare providers to ensure your eye health is managed alongside your overall wellness.

What Our Customers Are Saying About Us
I had a great experience at Frames.co when I needed to fill my 3 year old's prescription for his first pair of glasses. Having never worn glasses ourselves, my husband and I needed to be educated on options for frames and lenses, specifically for children. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly and they allowed my son to try on a bunch of styles before he picked his favorite pair. They even threw in a free year-long protection warranty as a thank you for being new customers. The glasses were ready in less than a week and my son has been obsessed with them ever since.
The staff at Frame Bar Co were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. This was my first pair of glasses. Daniel was so helpful and made the process seamless and fun. He helped me pick out a pair of glasses that suited my style. Dr. Calderon was extremely knowledgeable and performed my eye exam. He corrected an error made by a previous optometrist at another practice. Liz was also very helpful. She called me to let me know when my glasses were ready for pick up. The team has excellent communication and I would highly recommend them to anyone needing an eye exam or new glasses!
