We trained (EMOs) to use digital retinal colour photography with the portable, handheld Remidio Non Mydriatic Fundus on phone camera. This camera incorporates offline Medios Artificial Intelligence (AI) software for automated analysis of the images in screening for referable diabetic retinopathy. Eye Mitra Opticians are a cadre of personnel trained by Essilor India Pvt Ltd to carry out refraction in rural India. We trained three EMOs (theory and practical hands-on training) to use the Remidio Non Mydriatic Fundus on phone camera to take images of the retina (disc centred and macula centred). The images were analysed using the in-built AI software and a report was generated informing the EMO if the patient had referable diabetic retinopathy, within 20 s of the image being taken. The EMOs successfully used the portable fundus camera with AI to screen the patients for diabetic retinopathy.
