Why Is Diabetic Retinopathy Screening a Challenge?
High Costs – Traditional screening requires expensive equipment & specialists.
Slow Process – Delays in reporting affect timely intervention.
Limited Access – Many diabetics never get screened due to lack of facilities.
What a Diabetologist can do to Prevent Blindness?
The only way to prevent vision loss is through annual retinal screening, conducted when diabetic patients visit their physicians.
Physicians or nurses can easily capture retinal images using Automated fundus camera, without the need for dilating the pupil
With the help of AI-powered analysis, an instant diabetic retinopathy report is generated, indicating whether the disease is present or not.
If diabetic retinopathy is detected, the patient is referred to an ophthalmologist for further treatment.
If no signs are present, the patient is advised to re-test after one year or as per doctor’s protocol.
