Diabetics can get most surgeries done, but it's a MUST that your doctor or yourself let the surgeon know that you are diabetic. The reason for this is that surgeries will be done in the mornings for diabetics because they usually can't eat before anaesthetic. My mother was diagnosed with Diabetes (took the shot of insulin twice daily) and was able to have eye surgery done. Work well with your GP and Specialist and there should be no problems.
