Hey,

Due to swinging blood sugars and seeing, gray, barely visible spots, just right in the center of the vision in both eyes, my eye doctor told me I have the first stages of diabetes retinopathy. But no laser treatment is needed at this point. Only to take control of the blood sugar.

What are the initial treatment of Diabetes retinopathy and will it reverse or cure the initial stage in any way? Laser treatment?

Improved blood sugar levels may resolve the issue without the need for treatment.
