Activity 1 - University of Florida Optimizing Disease Management (ODM) A Vision for Diabetic Eye Screening
Activity 2 - University of Florida Optimizing Disease Management (ODM) A Vision for Diabetic Eye Screening: Do It Better
Diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness in working-age adults and affects four of every ten people with diabetes. But only half of those who should be screened for diabetic retinopathy are screened, leaving the rest vulnerable to vision loss that is frequently not detected until it is too late. Timely treatment of diabetic retinopathy can reduce the risk of vision loss by 95%.
Now, primary care clinicians can screen their patients with diabetes using an AI-assisted diagnostic camera. Images are also securely sent to an ophthalmologist who will overread the images for other eye conditions. Optimizing Disease Management (ODM): Diabetic Retinopathy, a University of Florida Health quality improvement initiative, provides primary care clinicians with the tools to detect diabetic retinopathy in patients who may not otherwise be screened.
