Diabetic Retinopathy
Early detection of retinal photography is the key to early treatment.
Visual symptoms are an unreliable indicator of the presence of eye problems, and are an indicator of more advanced retinal changes. Retinography’s goal is to facilitate annual diabetic retinopathy screening by connecting patients, diabetic care doctors and screening sites. Photo-screening is the gold standard, and the most cost-effective; way of screening for diabetic retinopathy.
