Diabetes Mellitus, which is becoming a very common disorder especially in urban young and middle aged people can affect the eyes too. Because of the lack of physical activity junk food and stressful life younger people are affected by this epidemic. By 2030 every other person will be a diabetic if we don't control our habits now. And the worst part is, diabetes affects the inside nerve in our retina permanently and damages it by bleeding and detachment. So be smart. All diabetics should have their eyes screened for diabetic retinopathy and laser done if needed.
Remember a stitch in time saves nine! Take good care of your body and especially eyes by regular exercise good diet and de-stressing activities.
