Summary

This trial uses advanced imaging tools to take detailed pictures of the tiny blood vessels in the eyes of people with diabetes. It focuses on patients with different levels of diabetic retinopathy, a common complication that can impair vision. The imaging techniques use light waves to capture detailed images, helping doctors see changes that aren't visible with regular eye exams.
