Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Most people with diabetes believe their eyes are fine-until one day, they aren't.Vision doesn't usually fade overnight. It disappears quietly. A little blur that comes and goes. Difficulty reading small print. Trouble driving at night. A few floaters that seem harmless. And then, one day, something changes, and the loss feels sudden-even though the damage has been building for years.That is how diabetic retinopathy works.This book was written for people who do not want to be caught off guard.Diabetic retinopathy is not rare. It is not unusual. It is one of the leading causes of vision loss in adults worldwide-and yet most people living with diabetes know very little about it until it becomes personal. The danger is not only in the disease itself, but in how quietly it advances. No pain. No redness. Often no warning at all.This book pulls the curtain back.It explains, in clear and relatable language, what is happening inside the eye long before vision changes begin. It shows how years of blood sugar fluctuations slowly weaken the tiny blood vessels that feed the retina. How small, invisible changes accumulate. How the eye compensates-until it can't anymore.You will learn why: People can have significant retinal damage while seeing "perfectly fine"Vision loss often feels sudden, even though it isn'tSkipping eye exams is one of the most common-and most costly-mistakesEarly stages are the most important stages to catchTreatment works best before symptoms appearThis is not a book that talks down to you. And it is not a book that overwhelms you with medical jargon.It walks you through the disease the way a careful doctor would explain it to someone they actually care about-step by step, without panic, without sugarcoating, and without false reassurance.Inside, you'll find: A plain-language explanation of how diabetes damages the retina over timeA clear breakdown of the stages of diabetic retinopathy and what they mean for real lifeWhat early warning signs people often ignore-and why they matterWhy vision can fluctuate day to day and what that really indicatesHow diabetic macular edema affects reading, driving, and recognizing facesWhat sudden floaters, flashes, or dark shadows actually meanHow modern screening and imaging detect damage before vision is affectedWhy "I see fine" does not mean "my eyes are healthy"This book also addresses something many resources avoid: the emotional side of vision loss risk.The anxiety of waiting for eye exam results.The fear of injections, lasers, or surgery.The frustration of managing a disease that feels relentless.The guilt of wondering if something could have been prevented earlier.These experiences are real. They matter. And they are part of the story of diabetic retinopathy.Whether you are living with diabetes, caring for someone who is, or working in healthcare, this book helps you understand what is at stake-and what can still be done.It makes one thing clear: blindness from diabetic retinopathy is often preventable-but only if the disease is taken seriously early enough.Knowledge changes behavior. Behavior changes outcomes. And outcomes determine whether someone keeps their independence, their ability to read, drive, work, and recognize the faces they love.This book exists because no one should lose vision simply because they were never told what to look for.If you or someone you care about has diabetes, this is not a book to read someday.It is a book to read before the damage becomes visible Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Very slight corner wear. Not from a library. No remainder mark. xi + 313 pages. lg 8vo. ill., maps. The first comprehensive social and cultural study of Laos in forty years. Laos stands at the center of mainland Southeast Asia. It shares borders with all the main states in the region including China, so that when one touches on Laos, one touches the heart of the region. Any study of culture and society in Laos inevitably leads into broader issues associated with all the surrounding societies and cultures concerning their origins and contemporary developments. While all the essays in this volume take Laos as their focal point they raise issues which overflow the boundaries of the Lao state. They focus on the creation of the idea of Laos and its culture, whether it be through literature, tourism, or the activities of nationalists, thereby contributing to more general debates on the nature of Southeast Asian nationalism. They look at questions of minorities in Laos and issues of ethnic change. And they look at Laos in its regional context, and at Lao businessmen in their new global context. Contents: From buffer state to crossroads state / Randi Jerndal & Jonathan Rigg -- Towards a new Laos / Soren Ivarsson -- Women, space, and history / Andrew Walker -- Elites in exile / Si-ambhaivan Sisombat Souvannavong --Ethnic change in highland Laos / Grant Evans -- The Lue of Muang Sing / Khampheng Thipmuntali -- Apprentice ethnographers / Grant Evans -- Royal relics / Ing-Britt Trankell -- Women's power and Theravada Buddhism / H.
