The actual listing for diabetes indicates that a claimant must have the following:

*A diagnosis of Diabetes Mellitus.

* Evidence of Neuropathy that must be demonstrated by “significant and persistent disorganization of motor function in two extremities”. This neuropathy must also result in a “sustained disturbance of gross and dexterous movements, or gait and station”.

* Acidosis that happens, on average, no less than once every two months (this must be documented by the proper blood tests).

* Diabetic retinopathy that results in a level of visual impairment equal to the criteria set aside in section 2.00 of the impairment listing manual. Essentially, this means a visual impairment that involves a significant loss of peripheral vision in the better of the two eyes, or a significant loss of visual acuity in the better of the two eyes.
