High blood sugar can gradually damage blood vessels in the retina, even when your eyesight seems perfectly normal. This condition, called diabetic retinopathy, can progress before you notice anything wrong. Regular eye exams help detect early changes and reduce the risk of permanent vision loss.<\/p><h2 style=\"font-family:'Libre Baskerville',Georgia,'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:25px;line-height:1.35;font-weight:400;color:#1a3a6b;margin:42px 0 18px;padding:0 0 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #d9dee7;\">How Does High Blood Sugar Affect Your Eyes?<\/h2><p style=\"font-family:'Source Sans 3','Source Sans Pro',Arial,sans-serif;font-size:17px;line-height:1.75;color:#2b2f36;margin:0 0 18px;\">Diabetes affects how your body regulates blood sugar.
