These checks look for complications, even when you feel well.
When and how often?
Malta’s diabetes shared-care programme describes annual foot screening and annual screening for diabetic eye disease. Ask your diabetes team when your next appointments are due; your findings may mean closer follow-up.
How do I arrange them?
Ask your health-centre diabetes clinic or GP to check your eye-screening and podiatry referrals. Keep a record of appointment dates and bring your diabetes care information. New foot wounds or changes in vision need medical advice rather than waiting for the annual review.
