[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 2257137, member: 94045"] Well done so far, you are doing a great job. :) The eye screening is important and is given to everyone that has had a diabetes diagnosis, no matter whether they are in remission and how long for. The damage can already be done when blood sugars were high. We go once a year and it is important. It is a simple test that involves having drops in the eyes followed by photos of the retina. It was mentioned above that the drops make the eyes blurry and this lasts several hours. They have never affected mine at all but I do wear sunglasses afterwards (even if the test is in winter!). Please attend the appointment, for your eyes sake. [/QUOTE]
