Hi All,
I haven't been able to catchup with my doctor but have just seen my DIS results below:

Visual Acuity
Left Eye 6/5 Right Eye 6/6

Final Grade : R0MO

Guess the good news is that there are no signs of DR but wondered if anyone knew anything further in terms of the acuity and what the longer term consequences of having these numbers mean? Of course I'd need to maintain good BS control/Blood Pressure etc but curious at this point what this all really means in the grand scheme!

Thanks in advance,
 
D

I think the visual acuity results are from the reading chart test. The sight in your right eye is perfect and your left eye isn't quite as good. I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Thanks for the response!

When googling This result it seems to suggest the left eye is ‘better’ than normal. That’s surprises me!

Maybe I’ve just read it completely wrong
