Background Over 40 million people in the U.S. and 830 million worldwide live with diabetes, putting them at risk of diabetic retinopathy, the leading cause of blindness among working-age adults. Alarmingly, an estimated 85% of patients with diabetes over the age of 40 will develop diabetic retinopathy. Early detection through regular screenings is critical, yet many patients face barriers to obtaining annual eye exams. Accessible AI-powered diabetic eye exams at point-of-care offer a practical alternative, significantly increasing adherence to essential screenings.
