Diabetic retinopathy screening at home

A quick, at-home eye screening that helps catch vision problems early. Our licensed clinicians come to you—no cost through your health plan, performed in your home, and typically takes just 20 to 30 minutes.

Catching vision changes before they matter

Diabetic retinopathy often develops without symptoms. Early detection gives you time to work with your doctor on treatment before vision is affected. This screening helps you stay independent and keep doing the things you care about.

  • Spot problems before they affect your sight
  • Stay independent and keep living your life
  • Work with your doctor on what matters most

What people say

Real experiences from those who've been screened.

“I wasn’t having any vision problems, so I probably would’ve skipped this if it wasn’t done at home. It was simple, didn’t take long, and my doctor explained the results afterward. I’m glad I did it.”

Carlos P.

Patient, 54

“The technician was friendly and patient, which I really appreciated. I felt comfortable the whole time. Knowing an eye doctor reviewed the images gave me peace of mind.”

Denise H.

Patient, 65

“I’ve had diabetes for years and have done these screenings before, but this was the most convenient by far. No rushing, no waiting room, and no bill. That alone made it worth it.”

Robert M.

Patient, 76

“This was much easier than going to an office. I didn’t have to take time off work or arrange transportation. Everything felt calm and respectful, and I appreciated getting a copy of the results in the mail.”

Linda K.

Patient, 58

“I was a little unsure at first, but the visit was very professional. The technician showed ID, walked me through the process, and answered my questions. A few days later my doctor already had the results.”

James R.

Patient, 71

“I honestly didn’t even realize I was overdue for an eye screening. The technician was kind, explained everything, and it was over quicker than I expected. I liked not having to drive anywhere or sit in a waiting room.”

Patient, 62

Questions

Answers to what matters most about your screening visit.

Are your clinicians really licensed?

Yes. All MeaeCare clinicians and technicians are properly licensed, certified, and trained according to state and federal requirements. We work with qualified healthcare professionals who follow strict clinical protocols and quality standards. Your care and safety are always our top priority.

How long does a visit take?

Some MeaeCare screenings, such as diabetic retinopathy or osteoporosis screenings, take about 15 to 20 minutes to complete. A more comprehensive health risk assessment may take between 30 minutes and up to an hour. Our clinicians and technicians work efficiently while ensuring you feel comfortable, informed, and never rushed during your visit.

Who is eligible for MeaeCare screenings?

Eligibility for MeaeCare screenings is determined by your health plan. Members of contracted health plans who have certain conditions or risk factors identified in their health records may be invited to participate. These screenings help support preventive care and early detection based on your plan’s clinical guidelines. Ask your health plan if they're partnered with MeaeCare.

Will you sell me anything?

No. MeaeCare does not sell products or services to patients. Our in-home screenings are provided at no cost to you because they are covered by your health insurance, and we never upsell or charge for anything during your visit. Our only goal is to help identify potential health concerns and support early, preventive care.

Why come to my home?

MeaeCare brings care directly to you to make healthcare more convenient, comfortable, and accessible. In-home visits remove the need for travel, long wait times, or exposure to crowded clinical settings, which is especially important for seniors and individuals with chronic conditions. By meeting patients where they are, our trained technicians can provide attentive, high-quality screenings while ensuring a calm, personalized experience.
