Experts examined 6,708 pregnancies among individuals with pre-existing diabetes. They found that only 18.7% had eye screening in the first trimester, and 45.4% at any point during pregnancy. Screening was more common with prior retinopathy treatment, longer diabetes duration, and insulin pump use. Endocrinologist care early in pregnancy significantly increased screening rates. These findings highlight poor adherence to screening guidelines.
