Retinopathy, Neuropathy, and Nephropathy in Diabetes/ Diabet

---

Diabetes-related problems of the kidneys and retina are both brought on by damage to these organs’ small blood vessels. The catastrophic effects of these diabetic microvascular complications could include blindness and end-stage renal disease. Both type 1 and type 2 diabetes are susceptible to a highly specific vascular complication called diabetic retinopathy, whose prevalence is directly correlated with both the duration of diabetes and the degree of glycemic control. People with diabetes experience glaucoma, cataracts, and other eye conditions more frequently. Diabetic neuropathies are diverse disorders with a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations. Other than effective glycemic management, no specific treatment for the underlying nerve damage is available presently. Clinical nephropathy is the most severe consequence of diabetes mellitus. There is a very significant risk of dying young if persistent proteinuria develops. The most typical cause of death is renal failure, but cardiovascular illnesses also have a higher mortality rate.
