    HESI RN Exit Proctored Exam

    The nurse is developing a plan of care for an older male client with type 2 diabetes who reports blurred vision. Which outcome should the nurse include in the plan of care for this client?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A: Controlling blood pressure to less than 140/80 mm Hg is essential for reducing the risk of diabetic retinopathy, which can contribute to blurred vision and other complications. B: Educating the family about the disease is important, but it does not directly address the client’s blurred vision or its underlying cause. C: While eye care is important, this outcome does not focus on addressing the underlying issue of blurred vision in a client with diabetes. D: Although acceptance of health status is important, it is not as directly related to managing the client’s vision issues as controlling blood pressure.
