Diabetics often feel tired and have tearing eyes, what's the reason?

Patient's question:

My dad has been feeling sleepy after eating breakfast in the morning, usually around 10 a.m., and his eyes have been constantly tearing. I'm very worried about potential complications. He's 52 years old this year and has had diabetes for three years. Thank you. It's been more than a month.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the impact of diabetes on the eyes is still significant. It is recommended to undergo a fundus examination. Advice: Firstly, it is necessary to review the condition of the fundus every six months or a year. Currently, if you are experiencing tearfulness, it is best to first check the control of blood sugar levels. Doctor's inquiry: Could you please tell me how your father's blood sugar control is and if you have any other symptoms?
