I rely on my eyes a lot. Without it, I wouldn't be able to enjoy photography. I'm paranoid about ensuring their well being. Uncontrolled blood sugar levels can cause diabetic retionpathy,and ultimately, blindness. I'd rather give up doughnuts than lose my vision.
There is no cure for diabetes, yet.
KINGS BAY, Ga (March 10, 2023) - Lt. Joseph Jeskie, an optometrist at Naval Branch Health Clinic Kings Bay, performs an eye exam on a patient. Jeskie, a native of Bowling Green, Kentucky, holds a doctor of optometry degree from University of Houston College of Optometry. He says, “As part of our overall health, everyone requires a comprehensive eye exam from an optometrist or ophthalmologist on a regular basis. In the early stages, many eye diseases like glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy have virtually no symptoms." World Optometry Day is March 23. Optometrists provide primary vision care, ranging from sight testing and correction to the diagnosis, treatment and management of vision changes.

Photo Caption: It used a portable fundus camera developed by upcycling a smartphone. In particular, it is equipped with AI, which automatically informs whether an eye disease exists or not, so it is active in screening patients with diseases at the community level without moving to a tertiary hospital. In addition, patients can be easily screened without professional help. And when a picture is taken, it is uploaded to the AWS cloud to be read by a doctor. So the patient can be immediately informed of the results of the reading to follow-up.

about a week ago we noticed that odin had started tilting his head to the side.
how cute! we thought. he likes looking at the world sideways!
but then he started doing it more often and we thought we noted that he was rubbing his eyes more frequently than we remembered in the past.
after few hours of googleing, we discovered that both behaviors could be signs of vision loss due to lingering complications related to retinopathy of prematurity. yikes!
we called odin's eye doctor two days ago, thinking that they would probably just have us wait until his regularly scheduled appointment in may, since we were probably just being silly alarmists. instead, they told us that they'd like us to come in right away, with just enough of a sense of urgency to lead us to believe that perhaps we were not unduly alarmed afterall.
while we were in the office waiting for the dilation drops to do their dilating thing, odin had his chance to take a vision test typically taken by older kids. he didn't do so well at pointing and naming the objects, but clearly he enjoyed the bold lines.

I had to have a retinopathy test, which involves having eye drops to open up the iris so a photo can be taken of the back of the eye. Your sight's a bit weird afterwards - all that light is very glarey! So when I got home I had to take my own photos, of course.
post retinopathy check up photograph - the optician puts eye drops in the eye to make the pupils extra large... This is almost 2 hours post photograph, and they'll remain this way for probably another 2-4 hours.

COMPANION ARTICLE & MAPS: ift.tt/2LLLdor One of the best hikes in Red Rock Canyon, the Turtlehead Peak hike is tough but rewards you with sweeping 360 views of Las Vegas and the surrounding La Madre mountains. The trail to Turtlehead Peak the shortest peak hike in Red Rock Canyon park, so be prepared for a workout and some crowds. It's worth it, the views are incredible. There’s a fee to enter Red Rock Canyon, or you can use a National Parks Pass to get in for free. When you first enter Red Rock Canyon, the Visitor’s Center is worth a stop. They have some nice exhibits and a decent gift shop with hiking books. The Sandstone Quarry parking lot is currently under renovation and you can’t park there (until Sep 2017). There are some parking spaces on the side of the road, or you can park at the Calico 2 parking lot. The visitor center told me “you can park on the side of the road unless you see a ‘no parking’ sign.” There are no signs immediately around the Sandstone Quarry parking lot construction area. The hike parking is off of the 13 mile one-way Scenic Loop Road. The loop road is fun and offers lots of scenic rest areas and overviews. There are also many other trails in the park to check out. The Turtlehead Peak trail is tough, climbing about 2000 feet in 2 miles. And the chute section is really tough, with stretch where you do about 700 feet in a half of a mile. I wouldn’t bring small (or inexperienced) children on this hike. This hike is also popular, especially with beginners who go to the visitor center, get a map, see that this trail has views, and go for it. So don’t be surprised if you see hikers in sneakers holding a small water bottle, struggling as they hike the trail. I see it every time I do this hike. Red Rock Canyon is in the Mojave Desert. In the summer, it can get very hot here, so you’ll want to do this early. The peak is often windy and cooler, so pack an extra layer, especially in the cooler seasons. There are parts of the trail, especially in the second half toward the summit, that split apart and join up again, a relic from when the trail wasn’t marked well and people just made their way up as best they could. All the of trails generally lead to Turtlehead Peak, so don’t stress if you see folks on a different trail as you hike. This whole area used to be inhabited by Native Americans, and you can see petroglyphs and fire pits in some parts of the park. In modern times it was home to a quarry and they shot some Roy Rodgers westerns here. Keep your eyes open for desert tortoise and wild burros. They’re hard to spot, but around. You have better chances of spotting a desert hare or ground squirrels (which look a lot like chipmunks).

¿Qué es la diabetes? Una explicación sucinta del daño causado por esta enfermedad
La diabetes mellitus es curable con remedios naturales que se pueden encontrar en curadiabetes.net. Visite amablemente nuestro sitio para más información.
La diabetes mellitus es una afección que se diagnostica cuando el cuerpo no puede mantener el nivel de glucosa en sangre dentro del rango normal. Los pacientes que sufren de Diabetes a menudo descubren que obtienen un aumento en sus lecturas de azúcar en la sangre después de comer o tomar bebidas dulces.
La diabetes causa un daño severo a todo el cuerpo al dejar cicatrices en los delicados tejidos de cada órgano. Mientras que el cuerpo hace todo lo posible para deshacerse de las toxinas y los venenos, la diabetes hace que este proceso se ralentice y eventualmente se detiene esto provoca la acumulación de toxinas y muchos otros problemas de salud que podrían haberse evitado fácilmente.
En la actualidad, en todo el mundo, millones de personas son diagnosticadas con diabetes tipo 2 y las cifras aumentan exponencialmente día tras día. Debido a su estilo de vida poco saludable, estas personas comienzan a volverse resistentes a la insulina y conducen a la diabetes.
También hay personas con diabetes tipo 1, que es una condición poco frecuente que se caracteriza por la incapacidad del páncreas para producir insulina. Estas personas padecen un trastorno autoinmune que sigue el modo de autodestrucción de destruir sus propias células sanas en lugar de los patógenos.
Los pacientes con diabetes tipo 1 están destinados a la vida para depender de las inyecciones de insulina para mantener su glucosa en sangre bajo control. También deben mantener un estricto control de la dieta y mantenerse alejado de todo el azúcar y los platos dulces.
Estos pacientes pueden obtener un respiro pasando por el trasplante de páncreas o la transfusión de células beta cultivadas en el laboratorio en el páncreas para producir insulina natural. Sin embargo, esto será un arreglo temporal y el sistema inmune finalmente destruirá esto también. La cura radica en curar la causa raíz del tipo 1.
La principal preocupación de los médicos de todo el mundo en este momento es la diabetes tipo 2. Se está propagando como una pandemia y los médicos y las personas normales deben abordarlo con toda seriedad.
Todos los países están empezando a reconocer los efectos negativos de la diabetes, ya que conduce a una pérdida directa de ingresos para las familias y los gobiernos. Además, el gasto médico para el manejo de la diabetes quema un gran agujero en las finanzas de las familias de los grupos de ingresos medios. Una parte importante de los ingresos debe reservarse para las píldoras, los suministros de insulina y los chequeos regulares para controlar la enfermedad.
Cualquier complicación de salud causada por la diabetes agregará más gastos al paciente ya sobrecargado financieramente. Dado que los pacientes de tipo 2 generalmente tienen exceso de peso u obesidad, también corren un alto riesgo de desarrollar enfermedades relacionadas con el corazón y corren un gran riesgo de sufrir un ataque cardíaco. Estos factores deben tenerse en cuenta al administrar medicamentos a pacientes con diabetes.
¿Daño severo causado por la diabetes en los órganos y cómo evitarlo?
La diabetes se considera un trastorno metabólico ya que se daña una glándula importante requerida para el correcto funcionamiento de nuestro metabolismo. También se conoce como un trastorno de la sangre ya que el exceso de contenido de azúcar se encuentra en el torrente sanguíneo que circula libremente por todo el cuerpo.
Daño al cerebro: la diabetes causa un daño severo a las delicadas células del cerebro. Como la sangre es viscosa y está llena de toxinas, priva a las células cerebrales de oxígeno y nutrientes frescos. Con la falta de oxígeno, las células del cerebro comienzan a morir causando muchas complicaciones al paciente.
A medida que las células del cerebro comienzan a declinar, el paciente tendrá problemas en sus habilidades motrices, habilidades cognitivas y respuesta a los estímulos. Puede reaccionar con miedo a algo que no es peligroso, pero puede permanecer tranquilo y distante cuando hay un peligro real frente a él.
Los pacientes diabéticos también tienen un desequilibrio hormonal ya que las glándulas principales del cerebro no funcionan normalmente. Esto causa estragos en todo el cuerpo y causa un comportamiento errático de todas las glándulas y órganos que funcionan de acuerdo con las instrucciones enviadas por la glándula maestra (glándula pituitaria) en el cerebro.
Debido a un sistema nervioso defectuoso y dañado, se vuelve difícil para el cerebro enviar señales a los músculos y tejidos para que funcionen de forma sincronizada y respondan adecuadamente al estímulo externo.
También hay altas posibilidades de que el paciente desarrolle un coágulo de sangre en las principales arterias que suministran sangre al cerebro. Esto provocará una hemorragia en el cerebro que provocará un accidente cerebrovascular y parálisis de uno o ambos lados del cerebro. Esto se reflejará en el cuerpo de inmediato.
Si no se toman medidas inmediatas para disolver el coágulo de sangre y restablecer el suministro de sangre, el paciente puede quedar permanentemente discapacitado de por vida. También puede causar coma o la muerte en caso de que el coágulo de sangre sea grave y el suministro de sangre se haya detenido por completo.
Daño en los ojos: la diabetes comienza a afectar los pequeños vasos sanguíneos en los ojos y daña la visión. Al principio no hay signos visibles de falla en la visión, pero las horas extraordinarias el paciente verá una disminución en su visión.
Los diabéticos generalmente comienzan a tener visión borrosa y parches extraños en su visión. Estos parches pueden aparecer y desaparecer sin ningún patrón. También puede haber parches oscuros y nublados a veces con pequeños coágulos de sangre en los ojos.
Debido a la gruesa sangre que está llena de moléculas de azúcar en bruto, los vasos sanguíneos se salen, lo que provoca la filtración de sangre a los ojos. Esta sangre bloquea la visión y causa parches borrosos en la visión. La fuga de sangre finalmente llega a la retina y daña las células allí junto con los delicados nervios y arterias detrás de los ojos que están conectados a la corteza visual del cerebro.
Esta condición se llama retinopatía diabética, que si no se trata puede causar daño permanente a los ojos y ceguera. Incluso un trasplante de ojo puede no ayudar en las etapas posteriores ya que los nervios detrás de los ojos están dañados sin posibilidad de reparación.
Daño al corazón: debido a la sangre espesa y viscosa, al corazón le resulta difícil bombear sangre. Tiene que trabajar muy duro para realizar sus actividades diarias. Finalmente, el corazón se debilita, lo que lleva a dolencias respiratorias.
Un paciente diabético tiene un alto riesgo de sufrir un ataque cardíaco ya que el corazón no puede hacer el esfuerzo de aumentar el bombeo de sangre para cualquier actividad que ejerza físicamente. Por otra parte, también hay daños causados a las paredes interiores del corazón, las válvulas y las arterias que suministran sangre hacia y desde el corazón. Esto agrava aún más la condición que hace a la persona altamente susceptible a la condición del corazón.
Como un diabético tipo 2 generalmente también tendrá altos niveles de colesterol malo, obstruirá las arterias y hará que sea más difícil para el corazón funcionar normalmente.
Daño a los riñones: los pacientes diabéticos generalmente sufren de micción frecuente y disfunción renal o de la vejiga. Los riñones se esfuerzan por eliminar las toxinas y el exceso de azúcar en el torrente sanguíneo al orinar.
Hasta cierto punto, el cuerpo puede recuperar su funcionamiento normal. Pero debido a la continua cicatrización de las paredes internas de los riñones, el mecanismo de filtración se daña y causa la pérdida de otros elementos vitales necesarios para un equilibrio adecuado en el cuerpo. El riñón pierde minerales y sales que son necesarios para mantener el equilibrio de ph en el cuerpo.
Finalmente, los riñones pierden su funcionamiento y se dañan irreparablemente. Esta condición se llama nefropatía causada por la diabetes. El paciente debe someterse a diálisis frecuente y, finalmente, a un trasplante de riñón. Pero el riñón sano trasplantado funcionará durante algún tiempo antes de perder su funcionamiento también, a menos que la causa subyacente se trate a fondo.
Conclusión
La diabetes mellitus es una enfermedad mortal que debe diagnosticarse adecuadamente en una etapa temprana y se deben tomar medidas para prevenirla. Dado que la enfermedad crece silenciosamente y no presenta ningún síntoma visible hasta que no llegue a etapas avanzadas, es de suma importancia que todos los miembros de la familia pasen por un control para descartar cualquier posibilidad de diabetes.
Si la familia tiene un historial de diabetes, es más importante que nunca estar a salvo de la enfermedad y llevar un estilo de vida saludable.
