I haven't had laser treatment so I have no experience there. There is a homeopathic remedy that has helped me prevent and heal problems in my left eye. Doesn't seem to work as well in the right one though (some remedies are left or right sided in their action, oddly). Anyway, if you can get the remedy called 'Lachesis' in a 30c dilution, and take it daily for a few weeks, it might help with retinal bleeding in your left eye. Mine cleared entirely. Yes, I too was not helped by the parental tone many Doc's take in response to less-than-perfect blood sugars. The arrogance undermines their helpfulness, especially with teenagers! Did you get your diabetes when you were a teenager? I did. -Alternative medicines and disciplines can do a great deal towards preventing complications. Antioxidants, like Duncan says, help a lot. <!--more--> Exercise is really important too. And positive thinking, or at least avoiding doom-sayers. Be proud of the good stuff you CAN do for yourself, and don't be too hard on yourself about the rest. Lots of advice, and I don't think you were asking for any! -Good luck with your eyes. -Linda Hi Ellen. I haven’t had laser treatment so I have no experience
there. There is a homeopathic remedy that has helped me prevent and
heal problems in my left eye. Doesn’t seem to work as well in the
right one though (some remedies are left or right sided in their
action, oddly). Anyway, if you can get the remedy called ‘Lachesis’
in a 30c dilution, and take it daily for a few weeks, it might help
with retinal bleeding in your left eye. Mine cleared entirely.

Yes, I too was not helped by the parental tone many Doc’s take in
response to less-than-perfect blood sugars. The arrogance undermines
their helpfulness, especially with teenagers! Did you get your
diabetes when you were a teenager? I did.
