[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2566048, member: 372717"] I appreciate I'm T1 and not T2 but I've had on again off again background retinopathy for decades. While it 100% needs to be monitored it still hasn't progressed to the point where it needs treatment. I second [USER=475901]@TriciaWs[/USER] 's remark that the early stages can be reversed, and add that later stages can be treated. The treatments really have improved over the last 50 years and very very few people lose their sight now, though it is important to keep those eye checks going so that you can get treatment if and when you need it.
