A growing problem in Germany is the inadequate provision of ophthalmological care in rural areas – this is exactly where this project comes in. Mobile examination units enable ophthalmological screenings to be carried out directly on site.
The measurement and imaging data collected during the examination are transmitted via a cloud infrastructure to a team of ophthalmologists for evaluation. This separates the examination from the medical evaluation and enables nationwide, comprehensive eye screening. Patients can register for appointments via an online portal, where they also receive their diagnostic results and recommendations for further action.
