The initial focus is to develop algorithms that prevent, delay the progression, or improve treatment of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Examples include but are not limited to: describing the incidence, prevalence, and severity distribution of DR and AMD in the overall population and subgroups; diagnosing specified severity thresholds for DR and AMD; predicting the development and progression of DR and AMD for the overall population, subgroups, and individuals; and recommending tests and treatments to prevent or delay the progression of DR and AMD for the overall population, subgroups, and individuals.~Data will be collected retrospectively and prospectively.
The Retinal Care Data Repository's primary objective is to make data available for Retinal Care to develop algorithms that improve the care of people with retinal diseases.
