Diabetic retinopathy often has no early warning signs. At some point,
though, you may have macular edema. It blurs vision, making it hard to
do things like read and drive. In some cases, your vision will get better
or worse during the day.
As new blood vessels form at the back of the eye, they can bleed (hemorrhage)
and blur vision. The first time this happens it may not be very severe.
In most cases, it will leave just a few specks of blood, or spots, floating
in your vision. They often go away after a few hours.
These spots are often followed within a few days or weeks by a much greater
leakage of blood. The blood will blur your vision. In extreme cases, a
person will only be able to tell light from dark in that eye. It may take
the blood anywhere from a few days to months or even years to clear from
the inside of your eye. In some cases, the blood will not clear. You should
be aware that large hemorrhages tend to happen more than once, often during
sleep.
