The Retina Labs RD Inc is a service developed to facilitate and promote the screening of diabetic retinopathy.
More than 50% of diabetic people do not have their eyes checked regularly.
Yet all health organizations linked to diabetes recommend an annual eye exam.
The disease does not give any symptom until it reaches an advanced stage and the access to health services is difficult.
The main challenge to overcome blindness caused by diabetes is to provide access to the largest possible number of people with diabetes to a regular eye exam; however, this is in a health system where the material and human resources are already inadequate.
