RetinaRisk

RetinaRisk is a pioneering mobile application tailored for individuals with diabetes who seek to understand their risk of developing sight-threatening diabetic retinopathy. It integrates a clinically validated algorithm that empowers users to evaluate their personal risk by inputting details such as their type of diabetes, disease duration, gender, any existing retinopathy, blood sugar control (HbA1c levels), and blood pressure.

The utility of this application lies in its ability to not only provide a risk assessment but also to enlighten users on the critical factors contributing to their risk. By making sense of these factors, individuals can then actively engage in actions to mitigate their risk and strive to hit their target health markers. The user-friendly interface enhances the experience by offering a choice of languages—English, Icelandic, Spanish, and German.

A standout feature is the comprehensive educational content it offers. The content is meticulously curated to enhance the understanding of diabetes, its numerous complications, and particularly diabetic retinopathy. Equipped with a trend-tracking function, it lets users monitor the evolution of their risk over time, establish health goals, and seamlessly export their risk assessment results.

Whether users are at high or low risk, it's an essential tool to stay informed about their health status, offering personalized insights and education to help manage and take control of potential health complications associated with diabetes.
