^∗1 patient had a referral noted for which there was no recorded outcome.

^†“Image unlikely” refers to patients who had minor physical issues which influenced the ability to get readable images and so were referred directly to the ophthalmologist.

^‡“Other pathologies” refers to patients with pathology other than DR which required direct referral to the ophthalmologist.
