Fundus Photography

Historically, fundus photography is performed when a patient visits their ophthalmologist. Fundus photography is used to identify eye pathologies, such as diabetic retinopathy before they become detrimental to a patient’s vision.

But what if patients could get these important screenings done at their general practitioner’s office? Or in their own home? And what if the ability to have this preventative screening performed in more accessible places meant catching a disease early enough to prevent blindness because of the improved convenience of the test and the gradability rating of the imagery? 

Read on to learn about the importance of fundus photography, the gradability. of fundus images, and how technology can help any size or type of healthcare organization implement diabetic retinal exams into the checkups of their diabetic patients in order to catch eye pathologies earlier and prevent blindness.
