We are doing a study to learn how quickly blood inside the eye goes away on its own. This kind of bleeding is called a vitreous hemorrhage. It can make it hard for people to see clearly.

By doing this, we hope to learn when doctors might need to step in and when it's safe to wait and watch.

This research study is a virtual intervention designed to decrease diabetes distress in adults 30 years and older with type 1 diabetes. We will enroll participants into a virtual intervention with two arms, both of which are evidence-based interventions to decrease distress. Diabetes distress is important to address because it affects well-being and diabetes management. It is very common, with about 40% of people with diabetes having some level of distress. It responds well to treatment and we are studying the best way to decrease distress in our study population.
