Retinal screening for employer health

Add vision-threatening disease screening to your on-site and near-site clinics. Your clinic captures the image; our board-certified ophthalmologists read it and return a clear report in 24–48 hours. Early detection that protects employees — and your bottom line. Think radiology, but for eyes.

Why it matters for employers

Your workforce is carrying silent eye disease right now

Diabetes and hypertension are widespread across nearly every employee population — and the eye is where both quietly leave the earliest marks. Vision loss is expensive long before anyone files a claim, in lost productivity and avoidable downstream care.

1 in 9

Working adults have diabetes

Diabetic eye disease can advance for years without symptoms. Annual retinal screening catches it before vision — and productivity — is lost.

~50%

Of hypertensive adults are uncontrolled

High blood pressure leaves its mark on the retina first. A single image surfaces vascular changes a routine wellness check would miss.

Top driver

Vision loss raises total cost

Untreated eye disease feeds absenteeism, disability, and downstream medical and pharmacy claims. Early detection bends that curve.

The math is straightforward: a single retinal image at a routine on-site visit catches disease early, when it is cheapest to manage and easiest to keep from becoming a long-term claim.

On-site, low friction

A two-minute screening that never leaves the building

No specialist to staff, no off-site referral to chase. Your on-site or near-site clinic captures the image during a visit employees are already having — and EyeSee handles the expert read remotely.

  1. 1

    Capture

    Patient photo

    Your staff captures the retinal image during a routine visit using your existing fundus camera — RetinaVue, Optomed, Topcon, and most platforms supported.

  2. 2

    Upload

    Securely send

    One click sends the image to EyeSee through your camera portal or our secure, HIPAA-aligned upload — no new software or workflow disruption.

  3. 3

    Ophthalmologist Review

    Expert interpretation

    A board-certified ophthalmologist reviews the image, documents findings, and writes clinical impressions and recommendations.

  4. 4

    Report Returned

    24–48 hours

    You receive a clear, structured report — ready for the chart and the conversation with your patient — typically within 24–48 hours.

Quick

About two minutes to capture during a routine wellness or chronic-care visit.

Painless

Non-invasive imaging — no eye doctor visit and, in most cases, no dilation.

Secure

Images and reports move through a HIPAA-aligned, access-controlled workflow.

What employers get

Early detection your benefits team can measure

A screening program that protects employees, reduces avoidable cost, and gives population-health leaders the data to prove it worked.

Early detection, at scale

Find vision-threatening disease in employees who feel fine — diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and hypertensive changes — before it becomes a claim.

Lower long-term claims

Catching disease early steers people into management instead of emergencies, reducing avoidable downstream medical and disability cost.

A benefit employees feel

A two-minute, painless screening at the on-site clinic signals a company that invests in its people — a real differentiator at open enrollment.

Easy to deploy

Device-agnostic. Your clinic captures with the fundus camera it already has; we read it remotely. No new specialist, no referral logistics.

Fast, structured reports

A board-certified ophthalmologist returns a clear, chart-ready report in 24–48 hours — ready for the clinic to discuss and route.

Measurable program

Track screening volume, find rates, and follow-through so benefits and population-health teams can prove the ROI of the program.

What a single image reveals

The conditions most relevant to a working population

The retina is the only place a clinician can see blood vessels and the optic nerve directly. For an employed population, that means catching the chronic-disease complications that drive the most long-term cost — often before any symptom appears.

Diabetic Retinopathy

Damage to retinal blood vessels from diabetes — a leading cause of preventable blindness.

Glaucoma

Optic-nerve damage that progresses silently; imaging supports earlier detection and surveillance.

Macular Degeneration

Age-related central-vision loss where early monitoring changes outcomes.

Hypertensive Retinopathy

Retinal vessel changes caused by high blood pressure.

Retinal Disease

Tears, detachments, and vascular conditions that threaten vision.

Suspicious Ocular Lesions

Concerning spots identified early, including melanoma.

Questions, answered

Employer program FAQ

Where does the retinal image get captured for an employer program?
Right at your on-site or near-site clinic during a routine wellness or chronic-care visit. The clinic captures a fundus image with its existing camera; EyeSee provides the remote interpretation. No vision-specialist staffing and no off-site referral required.
How long does a screening take for an employee?
Capturing the image takes about two minutes and is non-invasive — no eye doctor visit and, in most cases, no dilation. Employees stay on campus and get back to work, and the report follows in 24–48 hours.
Does this replace a routine eye exam?
No. It is a screening that flags vision- and life-threatening disease early — diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma signs, and hypertensive changes — and recommends the right next step, including referral when warranted. The clinic keeps the relationship.
How do we measure the program’s impact?
EyeSee delivers structured reports your clinic and population-health team can roll up: who was screened, what was found, and who needs follow-up. That data lets benefits leaders tie screening to early intervention and downstream cost.
