What is Diabetic Retinopathy? Diabetic Retinopathy happens when high blood sugar levels damage the blood vessels in the retina. Due to the damage, the blood vessels swell and leak. It can cause vision loss if not treated and eventually lead to complete blindness.

NDPR (Non-proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy): In this stage of Diabetic Retinopathy,it involves leaking and swelling of the blood vessels in the retina. If it is not treated well, it can lead vision loss.
PDR (Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy) PDR is basically the advanced stage of Diabetic Retinopathy. In this stage, new blood vessels grow, which can bleed into the vitreous and either cause you to see floaters or dim/block your peripheral and central vision.
