Look in my eyes ...



Many relatives of diabetics know the phenomenon to feel the fluctuations of the bloodsugar level of the partner, child or parent even before he or she measures it. Here the eyes sometimes seem to play a major role.

But is this really possible? Can you see, for instance, too high values in the eyes of your loved one?

Basically not. It is possible, though, to draw conclusions from the eyes. It is generally known that hypoand hyperglycaemia retard the reaction time. Likewise, slips of the bloodsugar level can lead to visual disturbances, mostly temporary shortsightedness. A typical reaction of the vis-à-vis here is to screw up his or her eyes. However, each diabetic can surely say that his or her closest fellowmen develop a sixth sense for the changing of the bloodsugar level.
