[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 2496255, member: 88961"] I believe there are several reasons spider veins can occur, so better not to speculate. A few years ago I had very minor changes - R1 if I recall, in one eye. Fortunately, I have a friend who is married to an opthalmic surgeon, so needless to say I called him. His comments were not to panic, but to ensure my diabetes was in a good place and to ensure my blood pressure was equally good, as those things, along with other factors can contribute to eye disease. Not all eye conditions in those living with diabetes are diabetes related, but whatever the cause, it's good to keep close tabs on it. (My eye tests did return to normal and have remained so.)
