Making the lifestyle changes as far as possible in manage the condition and co-morbidities, will be the most effective method of controlling the controllable, while trying to deal with other symptoms as early as they are detected.

Phew - am I glad I had mine done this year and am hoping B will have his good eye done soon or it will be too late for him to have it done and could lose his sight. His bad eye just has a mix of grey/white blur so am keeping fingers crossed......
