This study tests a new camera software to help general practitioners check for diabetic retinopathy, an eye problem caused by diabetes. It is for people with type 1 or 2 diabetes who are 40 or older.
This program aims to screen people for diabetic eye problems early and help prevent vision loss over time. It may help you if you have type 2 diabetes (or you’ve been invited as a diabetes/non-diabetes participant) and can safely take part in the study activities.
This study looks at how high-risk factors for heart and blood vessel disease develop in people who were diagnosed with diabetes before age 18. It may help researchers understand who is most at risk and how to better prevent heart problems later.
This study looks back at medical records of people with type 2 diabetes to understand how diabetic eye disease (retinopathy) progresses and when treatment is needed. It may help doctors better predict risks and guide future care.
This study observes how diabetes affects vision over time in people with diabetes. It helps doctors better understand eye health without any treatment or intervention.
This study follows people with type 2 diabetes to understand how diabetic retinopathy (an eye disease caused by diabetes) changes over time without treatment. It may help if you have no other eye issues causing new blood vessels and are not planning for certain eye procedures.
