Diabetes can harm the eyes. It can damage the small blood vessels in the retina, the back part of your eye. This condition is called diabetic retinopathy. Diabetes also increases the chance of having glaucoma, cataracts, and other eye problems. Diabetic retinopathy is caused by damage from diabetes to blood vessels of the retina.

Diabetic retinopathy is a main cause of decreased vision or blindness in Americans 20 to 74 years old.
