Living With Diabetes.

Healthy life choices and working with your doctor can go a long way toward lowering the risk of complications from diabetes. Work with your doctor to monitor your A1c, blood pressure and kidney function. It is also important to get a retinal eye exam by an eye care professional.

If you have health insurance through your job, or you have an individual or family plan, you may qualify for no-cost, annual, diabetic retinopathy screening. Email the Texas Quality Improvement Program to find a screening event near you.
