[QUOTE="the_anticarb, post: 362742, member: 16982"] [b]Re: Diabetic eye screening result[/b] Ask her to walk around for a few hours with a net stocking over her eyes, this is what it felt like to me when I had my bleed, I could still see but it was like looking through cobwebs or netting. It was really annoying, I just wanted to brush it away but of course I couldn't as it was inside my eyes. Unfortunately if she doesn't want to listen, there's not a lot you can do, she will probably have another few years of getting away with the background retinopathy, but the journey from background to full blown retinopathy can be a short one, and it can get worse before it gets better as once you try and control your blood sugars it takes up to 3 years for the retinopathy to settle down (if it is full blown) which can be very frustrating when your eye condition is getting worse and there's nothing you can do about it. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
