    I had a vitrectomy in November 2010. I must say it took at least 3 weeks to get my vision back. Also, 2 months later I had a post operative haemorrhage and a massive bleed which left me without sight in my eye for 10 days. Its NOT a speedy recovery! But believe me it was worth it. If you’re a diabetic take this seriously. Take care of your BM’s so you dont need the op to begin with!

    I’ve been diabetic for about 6 years now type 2. My blood sugar’s have been pretty well control. The sad thing is when they say in this video that diabetic retinopathy can occur even with controlled blood sugars. I’ve already been legally blind since I was very young I have had glaucoma since I was very young up until now it has taken most of my peripheral vision I have congenital nystagmus which already makes it hard to see and I’m myoptic. And I’m already totally blind in one eye due to an injury . This really sounds like somebody who’s at high risk of going completely blind yep that’s me really sucks just hope it doesn’t happen I would like to at least keep the remaining Vision that I have. And I just learned from my last I doctor’s visit that I have early cataract formation so yes there’s a cataract that’s already brewing in my eye and I’m already noticing changes in my vision.
