Angeladalton.... this is a sign that your HBA1C is too high. I was diagnosed with background retinopathy. i carried on as normal until they told me that i have maculopathy. I should have changed my habits when they told me that I had retinopathy as this can be reversed over time especially if you keep your HBA1C under 7%. Maculopathy cannot be reversed. I am now taking my diabetes seriously so hopefully the maculopathy will not progress.
Please do not ignore this.
