Abstract

Suboptimal diabetic eye disease screening is a major cause of preventable vision loss. Screening barriers include mydriasis and need for dedicated screening appointments. The Clearsight trial assessed whether non-mydriatic ultra-widefield (NM UWF) screening on the day of a diabetes clinic visit improved detection of clinically important eye disease vs usual screening. This single-centre, randomized, parallel-group controlled trial was conducted at St. Joseph’s Health Care, London, Canada. Adults with diabetes due for screening were randomized to same-day On-Site Screening (NM UWF imaging) on the day of a scheduled diabetes clinic visit or Usual Screening (encouraged to arrange optometric screening).
