Timely diabetic retinopathy screening is essential for detecting early signs of retinal damage. Many eye problems related to diabetes develop gradually and often cause few symptoms in the early stages. Regular eye screening helps prevent permanent vision problems.
What is diabetic retinopathy screening?
Diabetic retinopathy screening is an examination in which the retina (fundus) of the eye is carefully checked for abnormalities caused by diabetes.
During a diabetic eye screening in Amsterdam, special fundus photographs of the retina are taken. These images allow the optometrist to assess changes in the retina and detect early signs of diabetic retinopathy or other diabetes-related eye conditions.
Why is diabetic eye screening important?
Diabetes can damage the tiny blood vessels in the retina. Without regular monitoring, this damage can eventually lead to reduced vision or permanent vision loss.
Regular diabetic retinopathy screening helps detect retinal changes early and allows timely treatment when necessary.
Benefits of early diabetic eye screening include:
- Early detection of retinal abnormalities
- Prevention of serious eye damage
- Timely referral to an ophthalmologist if needed
- Protection of long-term eye health

Diabetic retinopathy screening in Amsterdam is recommended for:
