    Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes that involves damage to the blood vessels of the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye (the retina). Over time, high blood sugar levels can cause the tiny blood vessels in the retina to become blocked, leaky, or swell. This can lead to vision loss or even blindness if not treated promptly and properly.
