Best Visual Acuity: 6/6

The key is to completely avoid sugar, high carbohydrate diet, alcohol, high cholesterol foods and exercise regularly i.e. walking, swimming, cardio exercises

I had Vitreous Hemorrhage from my left eye on December 23 d 2023. I couldn't see, I only saw shadows and blood plus black spot. I went to my retina specialist, told me I needed surgery. So on March 14th of 2024 I had surgery, because the Eylea injections didn't work, so i got surgeries, now i can so much better. I would say I can see 95 percent better

I started with eye floaters… I’m also diabetic… went to a doctor 4 years ago… was told it would require injections to the eye… I ran away… fast forward … got my 1st injection Las week :( my floaters come back from time to time… even worse I started seeing blue n red lights… I walk extra slow as it is had to tell what’s real n what’s not…. I’m 41 I can only imagine what 60 is going to look like…
I’m listening to my doc and am trying to go back 2 normal… never knew I was blessed and Neil this started….
Y’all take care!!

I enjoyed your video as you take a good balanced approach to visually displaying and explaining

You can reverse Retinopathy! Here's how you do Carnivore Diet!
My wife a 50yr T1 diabetic with Retinopathy and with eye bleeds for 20 years has had about a 1000 laser zaps and a couple dozen eye shots that only made things Far, Far worse and the cause of one Retina detachment.
She went on Keto a year and half ago then the Carnivore Diet 7 moths ago with No Carbs! And she has not had Any eye bleeds in over a year!
Her A1C has went from mid 9s to 6.3...so far! For years the littlest amount of stress would cause a major eye bleed that would last for a week or longer, Now stress doesn't cause any eye bleeds. Will Carnivore fix any of the damage the butcher doctors caused with lazers and shots? Time will only tell but we hope so. Also you must know that we do not need any Carbs to survive but Big Food, Big Pharma and the Government want us to believe we DON'T! There is no such thing as an essential carb, only essential Proteins and Fats. Do your own research on the Carnivore Diet, look up Dr Richard Bernstein, Dr Ken Berry, Dr Shawn Baker. The body can heal itself with the proper human diet. Pass the word and Good luck to all!

What is the effect of prolonged fasting with retinopathy?

One of the best things to do is eat a healthy diet and regular exercise. Can help with reversing blood surger A1C levels and many others like cholesterol tryglecierides and losing weight can help reverse diabetes if its caught early.

Following my latest Diabetic Retinopathy I was told that they were unable to get clear
pictures of the back of my eyes. And have referred me to go for a "Slit Lamp Test"
with an Opthamologist to find out what is going on. I have noticed in my left eye,
while watching TV, that my vision is blurred in that eye. Does this involved surgery
as I live alone, and afraid of going blind.
