    Diabetic Retinopathy is one of the most common complications affecting people with diabetes and is a leading cause of blindness worldwide. Advanced technological methods through image analysis and artificial neural networks have become major assets in addressing the escalating problem of DR. This paper discusses various approaches to implementing automation in DR detection, focusing on image acquisition and preprocessing, feature extraction, and classification using AI. We review the utility of these systems in terms of cost, benefits, and performance, as well as the challenges related to data quality, model interpretability, and regulatory requirements. The study demonstrates that automation holds the key to delivering higher patient-impact opportunities in clinical applications such as screening programs and telemedicine. Finally, we discuss directions for future research and community implementation, emphasizing the importance of highly controlled, naturalistic designs and the translation of research findings into clinical practice.
