occurs when blood glucose levels are excessively high

Hyperglycemia, also known as high blood sugar, occurs when there is an excessive amount of glucose in the bloodstream. This condition is often associated with diabetes and can result from insufficient insulin production or the body's inability to effectively use insulin. Persistent hyperglycemia can lead to serious health complications, including damage to the eyes, kidneys, nerves, and cardiovascular system.
