It is the most common cause of vision loss among people with diabetes and the leading cause of vision impairment and blindness among working-age adults. Over time, too much sugar in the blood can lead to the blockage of the tiny blood vessels that foster the retina in cutting off its blood supply which results, the eye attempts to grow new blood vessels.
