Objective To analyze the effect of eye care intervention in diabetic retinopathy. Methods A total of 76 patients with diabetic retinopathy treated in our hospital during the study period from March 2021 to August 2023 were selected and randomly divided into control group and observation group, 38 patients in each group, 38 patients in the control group with routine care and 38 patients in the observation group with eye care. The blood glucose control and visual improvement of the two groups were compared. Results Before nursing, there was no significant difference in blood glucose index between the two groups (P>0.05), while after nursing, the blood glucose index of the observer patients improved better (P<0.05). Before nursing, there was no significant difference in visual acuity between the two groups (P>0.05). After nursing, the visual acuity improved more in the observation group with significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion The application of eye care intervention in diabetic retinopathy has a good effect, which can increase patients awareness of sugar control, reduce blood sugar level, reach the clinical requirements of blood sugar range, and improve visual acuity level, which is conducive to slowing down ocular neuropathy.
