01Diabetic retinopathy screening
Saudi Advanced Automated Retinal Image Analysis
Diabetic retinopathy screening, in minutes.
SAARIA reads a standard retinal photo from the camera your clinic already has, and returns a clear, bilingual report with the next step for every patient.
- >90% sensitivity, specificity and accuracy
- SFDA approved (MDMA)
- ISO 13485:2016
Why it matters
Diabetes can damage the retina quietly, long before a patient notices any change in their sight. Regular screening is how vision is protected, and SAARIA brings that screening to where patients already are.
How it works
Three steps, one visit.
-
01
Capture
A standard retinal photo from the fundus camera already in the clinic. No new infrastructure.
-
02
Analyse
Each eye is analysed independently for diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular edema, in minutes.
-
03
Report
One structured report in Arabic and English: DR stage, macular edema, and a clear next step, from routine follow-up to urgent referral.
The report
Every patient leaves with a clear next step.
SAARIA grades each eye and turns the result into an action the clinic can take straight away, in one report written in both Arabic and English.
Sample reports. Patient details have been removed.
