NEW YORK, July 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — AEYE Health, a leader in AI-powered retinal diagnostics, announces its strategic partnership with Ford Medical, a healthcare distributor dedicated to supporting non-acute care providers. The collaboration will bring AEYE’s fully autonomous diabetic eye exam screening solutions to pharmacies and non-acute centers nationwide – making early detection of diabetic retinopathy easier, on-the-spot and more widely accessible for patients.
With diabetes rates on the rise, pharmacies have become vital access points for retinal screening. Diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness among the working-age population – yet it is preventable in the vast majority of cases. Unfortunately, most diabetic patients are not screened annually, as recommended by clinical guidelines. AEYE-DS, AEYE Health’s AI-driven technology, enables point-of-care screening for patients who may not regularly see an eye specialist – enhancing care outreach, expanding pharmacy services, and creating new revenue opportunities. AEYE-DS is the first and only FDA-cleared AI solution compatible with a portable camera, making retinal screening truly feasible in a pharmacy setting.
Through this partnership, Ford Medical will distribute AEYE Health’s FDA-cleared AI screening solutions, enabling pharmacies and non-acute centers to offer an in-house, non-invasive eye exam that delivers immediate diagnostic results without the need for a specialist. The solution closes care gaps and is fully reimbursable under an existing CPT code, empowering point-of-care providers to prevent vision loss.
“We’re excited to collaborate with Ford Medical to bring AEYE-DS into pharmacies and non-acute centers – a strategic step toward making diabetic eye exams more accessible than ever,” said Zack Dvey-Aharon, Ph.D., CEO & Co-Founder of AEYE Health. “By integrating fully autonomous AI into everyday care settings, we’re making it much easier to detect disease early and prevent blindness for millions at risk.”
“This partnership with AEYE Health represents a major step forward in making AI-driven diagnostics more accessible,” said Scott Greenberg, Vice President of Sales at Ford Medical. “We’re giving non-acute providers the ability to deliver real clinical value through early detection – keeping patients healthier and helping providers grow their impact and their business.”
