Preventing avoidable sight loss through earlier detection
Diabetic eye screening plays a vital role in identifying sight-threatening complications of diabetes before symptoms develop, enabling earlier intervention and helping prevent avoidable sight loss.
NEC Health’s OptoMize platform supports the safe and effective delivery of diabetic eye screening programmes at population scale. Designed with clinicians and screening specialists, it combines advanced imaging workflows, pathway automation and programme oversight to help organisations maintain quality, improve efficiency and support positive patient outcomes.
Today, OptoMize supports more than 75% of NHS diabetic eye screening programmes in England, screens over 2 million people each year and is used across national programmes from Ireland to New Zealand. This combination of scale, clinical expertise and proven performance has made it one of the most widely adopted diabetic eye screening platforms in the world.
