See What I See: Diabetic Retinopathy Virtual Reality Experience

Diabetic retinopathy can cause vision loss and blindness in people with diabetes. Watch this video to explore what life might look like with vision loss caused by diabetic retinopathy — and if someone you love has diabetes, make sure they're seeing their eye doctor to get the help they need.

This video is from See What I See — a virtual reality app created by the National Eye Institute (NEI) that shows what life looks like with common eye diseases like diabetic retinopathy.

The app also features 4 knowledge-based quizzes to check your knowledge about diabetic retinopathy.
