Before revision:  Adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (AOSLO) provides real-time retinal images with high resolution down to 2 \mu m . This technique enables detection of the morphologies of individual microaneurysms (MAs), which are one of the earliest signs of diabetic retinopathy (DR), a frequent complication of diabetes that can lead to visual impairment and blindness .
