A 45-year-old man named Mr. Zhao, who often attends social gatherings for work, recently noticed difficulty in reading road signs and even experienced distorted and twisted lines on the road while cycling. Medical examination revealed significantly elevated blood pressure, blood sugar, and blood lipid levels, with high blood sugar causing vision impairment due to retinal damage. The patient was diagnosed with diabetic retinopathy and macular edema, and after receiving proper treatment, including medication for the 'three highs' control and intravitreal injection therapy, his condition improved gradually. Diabetic retinopathy is emphasized as a common diabetic complication affecting the eyes, underscoring the importance of regular eye examinations for early detection and prevention of complications.
