Diabetic eye exams available at several locations

The Institute is pleased to announce that eye exams for people with diabetes are now available at several of our health centers. Patients with diabetes can now get their yearly eye screening using a special machine called the LumineticsCore, which takes a picture of the eye and uses AI technology to check for eye problems. The entire test is quick, painless, and takes just a few minutes.

Everyone with diabetes should have their eyes checked at least once a year. This important test checks for a condition called diabetic retinopathy, in which high blood sugar levels damage the blood vessels at the back of the eye. Diabetic retinopathy has no symptoms until the later stages, but if left untreated, it can cause blindness. That’s why it’s vital to get yearly eye exams if you have diabetes.

The LumineticsCore eye test is now available at:

• Ellenville Family Health Center
• Stevenson Family Health Center
• Kingston Family Health Center
• Institute for Family Health at 17^th Street

Coming February 2026:

• Family Practice Center of Hyde Park
• Walton Family Health Center

Coming April 2026:

• New Paltz Family Health Center
• Mount Hope Family Practice

Don’t wait — protect your vision.
If you have diabetes, ask your provider about scheduling your eye exam at your next visit.
