About Diabetes

We Believe in Champions

Diverse group of smiling happy people

Living with diabetes puts you at a higher risk for developing diabetic eye disease, such as diabetic macular edema, diabetic retinopathy, and more. But having eye disease or diabetes, doesn’t define you. We’re defined by our choices—our choice to choose our own health and the choice to provide guidance to those whose health journey has just begun. 

Our champions have made that choice, and they do so every day. While championing their own health, they champion the health of others through their inspirational stories of learning to thrive despite their circumstances.
