Health Tip for 10 March, '10

Diabetes-related eye complications are the leading cause of blindness and vision problem. High blood glucose levels can damage the blood vessels in the retina, in the back of the eye. If left untreated, they lead to the deterioration of vision and ultimately blindness.
