The condition of diabetes can be seen by looking at the signs from the eye, because a person with chronic high blood sugar levels puts pressure on the blood vessels, resulting in visible blood spots at the back of the eye.
These blood spots mean the blood sugar level has reached a dangerous level and requires immediate attention. If glucose levels are not treated, it can lead to blindness.
2. Breast Cancer
Signs of breast cancer can even be seen through the markings on the eyes. Because when cancer cells start to spread to other parts of the body, the signs may even appear in the eyes.
Abnormal lesions or masses/tumors in eye structures such as the uvea (middle layer of tissue on the wall of the eye) indicate that cancer cells have spread to the eye.
If you have problems such as blurred vision, eye pain, or seeing flashes (floater), immediately to contact your doctor.

When cholesterol levels are high in the blood, it can gradually build up in the eyes. The visible sign is a white, gray or blue ring that forms around the iris of the eye.
While rings also form due to aging, another reason could be high cholesterol levels. If at any age you see rings on the eyes. Get tested for cholesterol levels, because high cholesterol can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.
