Does 1 person get diabetes every 6 seconds? Don't want to be blind, diabetics should remember 4 abnormal visions

Every November 14 is the "United Nations Diabetes Day". According to the data, there is 1 death due to diabetes every 6 seconds in the world, while the number of diabetic patients in China has ranked first in the world, and the total prevalence rate of diabetes in adults is 12.8%.

The reason why this silent killer is terrible lies not in the disease itself, but in the complications it brings. It has seriously harmed people's health, but also brings a greater medical and economic burden to the society.

Among them, diabetic foot, diabetic retinopathy, diabetics are currently facing the biggest problem.

Diabetes: one of the four blinding diseases

Long term diabetes mellitus is likely to lead to microvascular disease, and even cause cataract, retina and other related problems affecting vision.

Therefore, diabetes has become one of the most important topics in medicine in recent years.

One of the most common is diabetic retinopathy. If you don't take the right medicine in time, it will lead to severe visual trauma, and even blindness.

International medical institutions have also shown that about 50% of patients with retinal lesions after 8 years. So many people are beginning to realize the seriousness of this problem.

Four eye symptoms suggest the possibility of diabetes

Retinopathy also has some obvious characteristics in the early stage, so we can judge whether we have the possibility of diabetes through these phenomena.

1. The visual acuity obviously declines, especially at night, will accompany the feeling of night blindness.

2. When you look at things, you will feel ghosting and blurring.

3. There are granular objects floating in front of you.

4. The eyes will have pain and discomfort and limited vision.

If you want to stay away from these two diseases, you can refer to the following 3 points

First, change your eating habits

In fact, the best diet should be a high content of fiber diet and a large number of vitamins and minerals and a small amount of protein and fat.

In such a diet, not only can reduce blood sugar, cholesterol, but also can effectively resist the attack of diabetic retina. So the combination of diet plays a key role in human health.

Second, reduce strenuous exercise

Most of the retina of diabetic patients is very weak, and in many cases there will be rupture or even bleeding symptoms, when people have intense exercise, there will be symptoms of retinal discomfort, which is precisely because the retina has been caused by excessive impulse, which affects vision.

Third, regular inspection

In fact, diabetic patients should carry out reasonable treatment, follow the doctor's arrangement, reasonably match diet and drugs, and effectively control blood sugar to make it in the normal range.

If patients with hypertension or hyperlipidemia, it should also be reasonable treatment, so as to prevent retinal problems.

If the patient has the symptoms of retinopathy, the disease can also be effectively controlled by controlling blood sugar.

In a word, although the current medical level is constantly improving, but the number of people with diabetes has also become more and more, so this disease can not be underestimated.

Whenever diabetes is diagnosed, we should face it with an optimistic attitude. We should go to the hospital on time every year to find out the root cause of the disease as soon as possible.

Also pay attention to the condition of the eyes, if abnormal should also be timely to the hospital, to avoid future problems.
