Diabetic eye screening. Diabetic eye screening is a key part of diabetes care. People with diabetes are at risk of damage from diabetic retinopathy, a condition that can lead to sight loss if it's not treated. Diabetic retinopathy is one of the most common causes of sight loss among people of working age.
Diabetic retinopathy is best diagnosed with a dilated eye exam. For this exam, drops placed in your eyes widen (dilate) your pupils to allow your doctor to better view inside your eyes. The drops may cause your close vision to blur until they wear off, several hours later. During the exam, your eye doctor will look for: 1  Abnormal blood vessels. 2  Swelling, blood or fatty deposits in the retina. 3  Growth of new blood vessels and scar tissue. 4  Bleeding in the clear, jelly-like substance that fills the center of the eye (vitreous). 5  Retinal detachment.
