Why Diabetic Retinopathy screenings

Teleretinal screening (also called teleophthalmology screening) means retinal images are captured in primary care and read remotely by licensed eye specialists.

Typical workflow: (1) staff captures undilated retinal photos during the visit, (2) images are transmitted securely, (3) an ophthalmologist or optometrist interprets asynchronously, (4) a structured report returns to the clinic for follow-up and quality documentation. CarePlus is built for this workflow in primary care settings.
