Key takeaway
Offering digital eye scans right inside community clinics nearly tripled screening rates for diabetes-related vision damage. This matters for our community because it successfully closed major care gaps, particularly for men and people without insurance. Making these quick checks part of regular clinic visits helps more of us protect our sight before permanent damage occurs.
