Causes of DIABETES AND EYE

Dabetic retinopathy

This is the most common eye problem in people with diabetes. High blood sugar damages the tiny blood vessels in the retina causing blurry vision or blindness.5,6

Cataract

People with diabetes are at 2-5 times increased risk of cataract compared to others. People with diabetes also get cataracts at a younger age. In cataract, high blood sugar causes clouding of the eye’s lenses, causing vision problems.5,6

Glaucoma

People with diabetes are at twice the risk of glaucoma compared to others. High blood sugar affects the eye’s nerve that connects eye to the brain. This gradually damages your retina causing loss of vision.5,6

According to Ayurveda, impaired metabolism causes imbalance of vata, pitta and kapha dosha causing eye complications from diabetes.7 As such, diabetes is caused due to different diet or ahara practices, along with lifestyle or vihara habits including:8,9

  • Sedentary lifestyle
  • Excessive sleep
  • Excessive intake of sweet, sugary, salty, difficult to digest and cold foods, and raw grains
  • Regular consumption of seafood and meat
  • Regular consumption of beer, sugarcane juice and milk products
