1 Importance of Diabetic Retinal Screening

2 Diabetic Retinal Screening
Regular eye screening is one of the best ways to detect diabetic retinopathy before you notice any changes in your sight. Specialised digital photography is primarily used to look for changes that could affect your sight. When the condition is caught at the early stage, treatment is performed to reduce or prevent damage to your sight. Diabetic patients are typically recommended to undergo an eye examination annually. Diabetes is a problem that can affect the eyesight and diabetic changes may first become apparent in the eye. Patients with diabetes today have a lot of advantages thanks to the many modern medicines which help them to minimize their condition and live their life in a healthy and happy manner. At the same time, they have to remain vigilant about health risks such as retinopathy that are the direct result of the diabetes.

4 Diabetic Retinopathy This procedure is not really a treatment; as the name suggests, it is a way to view and analyze the existing condition of the eye and determine if the affliction in question is developing or not. It is extremely important that people with diabetes get this test done as it will give their doctors a vital heads up about the inner workings of their eyes.

5 RETScreen RETScreen is a proven enabler of clean energy projects worldwide. RETScreen significantly reduces the costs (both financial and time) associated with identifying and assessing potential energy projects. These costs, which arise at the pre-feasibility, feasibility, development, and engineering stages, can be substantial barriers to the deployment of Renewable-energy and Energy-efficient Technologies (RETs).

6 Stages Of Diabetic Retinopathy
Nonproliferative Diabetic Retinopathy Non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy is manifested in the retina as red dots and blots of hemorrhages and/or as yellow dots which are actually lipid (fatty) leakages. Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy Proliferative diabetic retinopathy is the more advanced stage where abnormal new blood vessels begin to grow on the surface of the retina as a compensatory mechanism for the decreasing blood flow brought about by the capillary abnormalities.
