The lack of nutrients and oxygen to the tissue result in damage to the retina. Diabetes can also alter the clear tissue covering the front of the eye. Decreased corneal sensation has been noted and swelling of the corneal tissue can reduce vision, sometimes dramatically in people with this disease. To try to explain it in easier to understand terms..... high blood sugar is like having really sweet sticky blood flowing through veins, arteries and capillaries. It sticks and blocks up the smaller areas and capillaries reducing oxygen and nutrition to certain areas such as eyes. Other problem areas for people with diabetes is kidneys. Kidney function can be reduced and even stop completely. Hands and feet can loose feeling and wounds in these areas may be hard to heal.<br><b>References : </b><br> cranial nerve ll – is the optic nerve

In diabetes, small hemorrhages develop in the smallest arteries (arterioles) in the retina of the eye and destroy (or disconnect by hemorrhages) retina cells from the optic nerve causing loss of small amounts of vision. The "bleeds" need to be treated, often by a laser, as soon as possible, to prevent further damage.<br><b>References : </b><br>a medical professional Babydoll – The 2nd cranial nerve is the optic nerve which carried vision from the retina (back wall) of the eye to the optic centers of the brain.
