Predicting Diabetic Retinopathy From Risk Factor Data and Digital Retinal Images

Running, not enrolling

Conditions studied: Diabetic Retinopathy, Diabetic Macular Edema

In brief

The objective of this study is to compare the results of a deep learning approach to diabetic retinopathy assessment with results from (1) an in-person examination with an ophthalmologist, and (2) the assessments of optometrists involved in a teleretinal screening program.

You may qualify if…

• Patients diagnosed with Type I or Type II Diabetes
• Patients who are over the age of 18 years
• Patients who have not previously been seen in the current year by the LACDHS Teleretinal Diabetic Retinopathy Screening Program and Reading Center
• Patients whose teleretinal screening exam images yield readable results

You may not qualify if…

• Patients under the age of 18 years
• Patients with gestational diabetes
• Patients who have previously been seen in the current year by LACDHS's Teleretinal Diabetic Retinopathy Screening Program and Reading Center
• Patients whose teleretinal screening exam images do not yield readable results, as gradable images are needed for later comparison against ophthalmologist reads.
• Previously eligible patients who do not return for an in-person eye exam within 3 months of receiving a teleretinal screening (In order for the results of the teleretinal screening and in-person eye examinations to yield similar information, patients who do not return for their in-person eye exam within 3 months of their teleretinal screening will not be able to remain in the study. This is because significant eye changes not documented by the teleretinal screening may occur after a 3-month period).
