Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is the most common complication that arises due to diabetes, and it affects the retina. It is the leading cause of blindness globally, and early detection can protect patients from losing sight. However, the early detection of Diabetic Retinopathy is an difficult task that needs clinical experts' interpretation of fundus images. In this study, a deep learning model was trained and validated on a private dataset and tested in real time at the Sindh Institute of Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences (SIOVS). The intelligent model evaluated the quality of the test images. The implemented model classified the test images into DR-Positive and DR-Negative ones. Furthermore, the results were reviewed by clinical experts to assess the model's performance. A total number of 398 patients, including 232 male and 166 female patients, were screened for five weeks. The model achieves 93.72% accuracy, 97.30% sensitivity, and 92.90% specificity on the test data as labelled by clinical experts on Diabetic Retinopathy.
