So I have had Diabetes for around ten years.. I have developed  a touch of retinopathy..
This causes my vision to be blurry sometimes for short periods at random..
Any of you guys deal with this as far a it affecting your shooting sports???

The Red dot sights I have now seem to help me somewhat .. I was wondering if anyone with this prob uses a nice scope with a focus adj on it and if it helps???

I have had diabetes for 3 years and just got through my eye test without any vascular damage. My eyesight has gone down to 20-60, but that could be age related, (45), and my whole family wears eyeglasses.

I still don't have your symptoms.

With diabetes, it's also real important to maintain a good hydration level. Low hydration will cause blurry vision that will be noticeable from day to day.

I went 5-6 years undiagnosed before I found out.. My last retinal exam showed that all but one tiny lesion had healed, since I have been taking excellent care of myself.. Take care of your disease..You don't want this crap..
