PURPOSE: The goal of our study was to determine the benefits of screening by non-mydriatic retinal camera in the @entity15164 region and to present the results of this screening. @entity1 AND METHODS: We report a prospective study of 430  @entity6 @entity1 , or 860  eyes, compiled between December  2012 and June  2013 in the Dokkarat health center, "integrated referral center for management of @entity6 and @entity101 " in the region of @entity15164 . All @entity1 underwent an examination by non-mydriatic fundus camera, obtaining two digital images per eye. The photos are taken by a nurse and a general practitioner. Interpretation of the images was performed in the ophthalmology department of the Hassan  II University Medical Center of @entity15164 . RESULTS: A total of 430  @entity1 were screened (78.4% female, 21.6% male). The mean age was 54.7  years (range, 10-80  years). The average duration of @entity6 was 7.7  years (  5.9). Most @entity1 had @entity164  2 @entity6 (94%). Insulin therapy was found in 35.3%. The mean HbA1c (obtained from 421  @entity1 ) was 8.21%. 38,8% of @entity1 had never consulted an ophthalmologist before. The fundus photographs were not interpretable for at least one eye in 75  cases (17.4%). Among the interpretable images, the prevalence of @entity6 ( @entity6 ) was 44.6%. @entity6 was present in at least one eye in 2.5% and @entity6 in 32  cases (9%). After screening, 69% of @entity1 with @entity6 were seen by the ophthalmologist. CONCLUSION: These data confirm the benefits of screening by non-mydriatic retinal camera, because it helps reintegrate @entity1 into the healthcare system and thus provides a real benefit in terms of public health and prevention of complications.
