Morning,
I was diagnosed T1D in April 2014 with an A1c of 127. My initial retinal screening said I had evidence of retinopathy in my left eye. Since then I've had two retinal screenings and one eye test at the opticians and they've all been completely clear.
I have no idea what to make of this first test... It may have been a dodgy interpretation of the images taken at the hospital. Or it may have had something to do with seriously high blood sugars exaggerating something that's now not noticeable. You may have had something similar; even with a decent A1c?
Maybe once you get the BG levels reigned right in, you will hopefully get some good news come the next screening.
Don't worry about it though, the important thing is you now know you're diabetic - and what it is you need to work towards
Good luck,
Grant
