Make sure your loved ones get their eye screenings done at least once every year and if they are #diabetic, this becomes even more crucial.
Diabetes can lead to Diabetic Retinopathy.
Say YES to Eye Screening and NO to Blindness.
Over 101 million people in India are living with diabetes. Diabetes can silently steal your sight — do not take it lightly. If you are #diabetic, get a comprehensive eye examination at least once a year to protect your vision.
