Retinopathy?

5 Replies

Hi

Hello everyone. Hope you are all keeping well. I'm new to the diabetes forum. I was tested for retinopathy a few weeks ago and has come that I have it slightly in both eyes. Please could anyone explain what it is in a bit more detail than was in my letter. Love and hugs to you all Lynne xxxx
