Here is a list of the currently FDA-cleared camera + AI combinations for retinopathy. Aeye is definitely still the strongest of these; offering both a tabletop camera and a handheld. UMass, for example, took both, and surely many other players will do the same. Each unit gets the device that suits it best. In my opinion, the Aeye-Topcon-Optomed trio is in a very strong position in this market.
