[QUOTE="Sid Bonkers, post: 268297, member: 19121"] Hi, there seem to be a lot of hits when searching Google for "[i]is there a link between Type 2 diabetes and glaucoma?[/i]" Most seem to be saying that there is a link between women with diabetes and a heightened risk of glaucoma, here is one such link but there are many others, it is also mentioned on many sites that high blood pressure is a risk factor too. [url=http://health.usnews.com/usnews/health/healthday/080502/diabetes-seems-to-heighten-glaucoma-risk.htm]http://health.usnews.com/usnews/health/ ... a-risk.htm[/url] I would also suggest that the lower your bg levels are the better when it comes to swerving eye complications, either through medication or diet/carb restriction. If you are concerned I would advise talking to your doctor about it. Good luck [/QUOTE]
