Brief description The project will assess the accuracy, acceptability and relative cost effectiveness of general practice based diabetic retinopathy (DR) screening and monitoring, with ophthalmic support and education via videoconferencing. Accredited GPs will screen for DR using non-mydriatic cameras as part of the Diabetes Annual Cycle of Care and monitor patients with minimal to moderate levels of DR but no sight threatening signs, with virtual ophthalmology support. Positive project outcomes have the capacity to effect policy
