Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this protocol is to determine whether point of care optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging combined with an OCT-guided retinal referral algorithm at primary diabetes care visits increases rates of retina specialist eye care for patients with diabetic macular edema. The hypothesis is that OCT imaging with an automated OCT-guided referral algorithm will enable identification of patients at risk for vision loss from diabetic macular edema and facilitate direct referral to retina specialists for more timely evaluation and treatment.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

OCT imaging

All study participants will undergo optical coherence tomography imaging and will be referred to a retina specialist for further standard care evaluation and management if they are identified as having diabetic macular edema or the scan quality is not sufficient to evaluate macular status.
