A cataract is a cloudy opacification of your natural eye lens which de-saturates your crystal clear vision, causing discomfort in your eyes by making you strain excessively to see everyday objects.

Phakic IOLs are artificial lenses replacing clouded natural eye lenses. IOLS with ICL provide crystal clear 20/20 vision. IOLs are implanted in your eyes permanently by laser surgical procedures.

The retina is a delicate ten-layered film of living and breathing tissue in the back of the eye akin to the film of a conventional camera that is responsible for sensing vision. Any disease affecting the this layer can cause significant and permanent vision loss if not detected and treated early.

Glaucoma is an eye disease which causes loss of your vision by damaging the optic nerve. It is known as the silent thief of vision and it is a major cause of permanent blindness the world over.

Oculoplasty is a top-notch eye treatment that includes the reconstruction of the eye, eyelids, eyebrows, orbit, tear ducts, and face. Most oculoplastic treatment is performed on people of all ages.

More Than a Health Policy: Creating a Diabetes-Friendly Workplace for World Diabetes Day 2025

Nov 11, 2025

With 4 days to go until World Diabetes Day on November 14th, the global community is rallying around a critical theme: “Know more and do more for diabetes at work.”

Diabetes affects millions of working-age adults, yet workplaces often overlook the unique challenges employees with diabetes face. This isn’t just about offering health insurance or a gym membership. A truly diabetes-friendly workplace builds understanding, support, and proactive care—allowing employees with diabetes to thrive while protecting their long-term health. One critical, often overlooked aspect? Vision.

Why Workplaces Matter for Diabetes and Eye Health

Managing diabetes at work goes far beyond monitoring blood sugar. Employees need:

Flexibility to take breaks for meals, snacks, or insulin management
Time to attend essential medical appointments
A supportive environment that reduces stress and physical strain

Why it matters: Prolonged screen time, high stress, and uncontrolled blood sugar create a perfect storm for diabetic eye disease. In fact, 1 in 4 people with diabetes will develop a sight-threatening eye condition, and early stages often have no noticeable symptoms.

For employees, this can mean missed deadlines, anxiety, and burnout. For employers, it can translate into lower productivity, increased absenteeism, and a workforce that isn’t fully supported. Creating a diabetes-friendly workplace is not just ethical—it’s smart business.

3 Major Diabetic Eye Diseases Everyone Should Know

Understanding the risks of diabetic eye disease is essential for employees and employers alike:

Diabetic Retinopathy – Damage to the retina’s blood vessels caused by high blood sugar levels. Retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness among working-age adults. Learn more about diabetic retinopathy treatment in Bangalore and how early detection can preserve vision.
Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) – Swelling in the macula, the central part of the retina, causes blurry vision that can impact reading, driving, and everyday tasks.
Cataracts – Clouding of the eye’s lens develops faster and at a younger age in people with diabetes, leading to foggy vision.

Early detection is key. Comprehensive diabetic eye screenings can catch these conditions before symptoms appear, allowing treatment to prevent vision loss.

Join the Global Call to Action

The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) has made it incredibly easy for everyone to get involved. Here’s how you can participate:

Take the Workplace Quiz: Wondering how your company measures up? Take the official quiz to see if your workplace scores Red, Amber, or Green! It’s a fantastic first step for starting a conversation with HR or management.
Share Your Experience: Help shape the global understanding by taking the short Diabetes in the Workplace Survey. Your challenges and insights are invaluable.
Contact Policymakers: Use the IDF’s online platform to send a letter to your Minister of Health, urging them to accelerate action on the WHO Global Diabetes Compact.
Organize a Global Diabetes Walk: Promote physical and mental well-being by organizing or joining a walk this November to spread awareness.

"Do More" by Protecting Vision: A Clear Call to Action

Knowing more about the risks is the first step. "Doing more" means taking proactive, preventative measures. For employees and employers alike, this includes prioritizing vision health.

Regular comprehensive eye exams are the single most effective way to detect diabetic eye disease early when it is most treatable. An eye doctor can see the signs of these conditions long before you notice any change in your vision.

Don’t wait for symptoms to appear. This November, commit to a screening.

Protect Your Vision: A Clear Call to Action

Knowing the risks is only half the battle. Doing more means taking proactive steps to preserve eyesight:

Schedule a comprehensive diabetic eye screening with an eye specialist.
Encourage regular breaks from screens and stress-reducing practices at work.
Eat balanced meals and monitor blood sugar consistently.

Don’t wait for symptoms to appear—vision loss is often preventable with early detection.
