Am I staying blind?

Hello days ago they diagnosed a young diabetes family, getting worse but the ophthalmologist has told him that he sees everything normal for now.He has no retinopathy, but he sees more and more blurred, his glasses graduated.A week ago and now he sees blurry with them and sees worse, before he saw from afar a week ago but not anymore, what can be happening to him are we scared?And the appointment is not until a few days, the sugar is controlled but sometimes it has it high but no more than 200. But better and better ..

@sausage88, that does not scare, that that happens to the beginning of the diabetes of diabetes, because the sugar is being regulated and affects the lens, until it adapts to the controlled glucose values.Little by little it will begin to see better.
I didn't have to graduate his glasses now, I don't know how the ophthalmologist did not notice that he did not.

@sausage88
Don't worry, as Regina says is normal.If the ophthalmologist has told him that everything ok is the lens.It is difficult to adapt to rapid changes in glucose levels.If you climb very fast or low very fast.In my case I got out of average to almost 500 to be on average to 100/120 in a week and spent 2 months seeing blurred until it adapted.I was very high (Glyc 15.9) but it is normal for less time, a few weeks.
That I do not expect to see well from one day to another as I believed (I woke up every day directly to the mirror to see if I saw already well), the improvement is gradual.

hello!I have heard that at first it happens because the glucose is adjusting.

On the other hand, I understand that they have to wait for the appointment with the doctor because it is for Social Security, but I wonder (an apology if it is a silly question) Why do not look for a private endocrine and pay the consultation?

Here in Mexico we have government insurance (IMSS) but the vast majority of people seek consultations and treatments in the private area so as not to wait for the date of the appointment because sometimes in the IMSS they send you an appointment within a month but toOne urges professional opinion.Isn't it possible in Spain?Are there private clinics?

Here in MX there is a page called Doctoralia.com.mx and there one looks for an appointment in any city, of any specialty and there are hundreds of options, even by area and grades that other patients give to the specialists.

"On the other hand, I understand that they have to wait for the appointment with the doctor because it is for Social Security, but I wonder (an apology if it is a silly question) why do they not look for a private endocrine and pay the consultation?"

- In general, public health works well, it is true that appointments can take too long but if it is urgent they serve you.An endocrinology appointment is usually not urgent.

- "Isn't it possible in Spain? There are private clinics?"

- Yes, there are many and very good and very expensive but if something is "free" and it works, so that to pay more just to have results before.

In general, I think we have great social security professionals and that they have tried to privatize this sector to Saco.

Hello, because the appointment is of private health insurance but they gave it quite late.If I think I will go to an endocrine before, because the truth was that everything was for private insurance and they didn't inform me well.It is seen that you care more to leave free rooms than treat the patient with integrity.

It was all for private health and garbage the hospital and the rapid treatment they gave me.They gave me the results of 400 glucose by mail and I introduced myself in the hospital because I looked on the Internet that was too high, which in social security would not have happened because the doctor calls you and tells you to go immediately.It is seen in private insurance they have another system of how to attend, they only mind billing and fast.And then in Spain it is voted to privatize everything .. an injustice that is thus treated to the public health system.Thanks for your answer I agree on everything.

Thank you for writing, I stay much calmer knowing this, and when I take my vision blurry I will return to my state before the view?Or what point will it come back, will I have myopia or something?How was your case?Also what is happening to me now is that they have recommended a dose amount before eating, but it turns out that the sugar goes down too much, what can be due?And sometimes I have to take a juice .. which means the term glyc

Thank you very much for answering!You do not know the relief that I felt when I saw that it was normal 😂😂 the ophthalmologist did not tell me anything or the doctors about the blurred vision

You return to your vision before, don't worry.That is why it makes no sense to graduate the glasses.
What medication do you have?Have you told you if you are type1 or type2?
When are you talking about dose, do you talk about insulin?
Glycosilada is a value that should be taken in the analytics that indicates your glucose average in the last 3 months.It is very important because it indicates the "level" of diabetes, not just a specific value.

It is true what Isabelbota comments.The "glyc" or "glycosilad" or "glucosilada" or "A1C" or "HBA1C" (all are the same) is a blood test (exam) that is used to measure the average levels of glucose in the blood for a period during a periodof prolonged time, usually two to three months.

The results of the "glyc" serve as an evaluation of glycemic control, such as treatment monitoring (to avoid long -term complications) and see if the treatment is being effective.

Sometimes doctors review the results of glyc and know that treatment works or does not work, sometimes they maintain the same treatment or can adjust medications or doses.

Thanks for sharing.From what I have heard and read, Social Security Medicine in Spain is very good, how good they have that.Here in Mexico we spend a monet mega on consultations, medicines, treatments, hospitals and medical insurance.

@sausage88 because I debuted privately, with the medical insurance in chirón Toledo and very well the truth.I was in the emergency room all morning, from 7:00 to eating.I was diagnosed and prescribed perfectly, and advised me to be for social security since it is very expensive to keep privately.

Of course the diabetic presbyopy lasts about 4 weeks, I did not see even closely or far.Then you return to your previous graduation.

If the glycemia lowers the doses that have been scheduled to reduce 1 unit and test.The dose depending on the carbohydrates you eat, if you do not eat the same every day, you will have hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia.
Fundamental that you can quote that the diabetological nurse, there they teach you to calculate insulin and measure.

When I debut, I spent a month without wearing view glasses, for that time I thought I was no longer needing the glasses, but when I regulate the glucose I needed them again

Before knowing that it was diabetic in the last graduation of the view, they told me that I had lost 20 percent vision of an eye.When I was diagnosed with the type two diabetes, I commented and the doctor sent me to the ophthalmologist and they made a series of tests.The results were that the vision was not affected.I have not noticed anything in the view of what they indicate.I had it fasting to 240 and 10 percent glucosyard hemoglobin.
