Diabetic Retinopathy Screening

“One in four Diabetic Patients can have Retinopathy which can lead to irreversible Blindness, so it becomes mandatory to screen every Diabetic Patient for Retinopathy at least once a year”

Welcare works in association with Diabetes Centers, General Hospitals, Labs and Community Service Organizations to screen patients visiting these centers for Eye Diseases such as Diabetic Retinopathy, Hypertensive Retinopathy, Cataract, Glaucoma, and Age Related Macular Degeneration etc. Welcare Ophthalmologists provide Diagnostic Reports and Treatment advice for the patients.
