Diabetic
Screening

Eye complications are
widespread in diabetes and early detection is a priority.
Diabetes can affect the eyes in a number of ways. These usually involve the fine network of
blood vessels in the retina – hence the term diabetic retinopathy.
The importance of early treatment
Although your vision may be good, changes can be taking place to your
retina that need treatment.
And because most sight loss in diabetes is preventable –
§ Early diagnosis is vital
§ Have an eye examination
every year
§ Do not wait until your
vision has deteriorated to have an eye examination
Chase Eyecare is contracted to Cannock Chase Primary Care Trust to
provide eye screening for all diabetic patients.
Membership of the diabetic register entails at least one full
examination annually at an accredited practice.
As founder members of the screening scheme we are equipped to fast
tract referrals in appropriate cases.
