NEW DELHI: Researchers have detected a new way to detect diabetes among Indians by taking a high-resolution photo of the retina or the back of the eye.
The research study, published in Diabetes Technology and Therapeutics journal, shows that AI can spot tiny warning signs in the eye’s blood vessels that are invisible to the human eye that can differentiate people with and without diabetes without a finger prick blood test.
