[QUOTE="SaWi, post: 2110324, member: 505995"] I had a look online to see if there was anything about this - I've recently been diagnosed as Type 2 and my blood sugar levels went down substantially with a low carb diet, so retinopathy is something I had been meaning to look at. There is a 2017 study reported here: [URL]https://bmcendocrdisord.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12902-017-0213-3[/URL] - and this said that despite the temporary worsening for 6-12 months, intensive and prompt action on blood sugar levels resulted in much better outcomes after two years, essentially reversing the temporary blip completely. It sounds like you are doing all the right things at the moment. [/QUOTE]
