One in two people with diabetes in Australia do not receive adequate screening or follow-up for diabetic retinopathy, a leading complication of diabetes and cause of vision loss and blindness. To tackle this issue, a new Australian study will evaluate a new telephone intervention designed to inform people with diabetes about diabetic retinopathy screening. This intervention is expected to improve future adherence to national screening guidelines for diabetic retinopathy.
