Insight Optics created a way for Primary Care Physicians (PCPs) to provide eye exams during annual whole-body checkups. The examination is made with an ophthalmoscope that is compatible with a smartphone camera, allowing the PCP to take high-resolution images of the patient’s retina from their smartphone. This information is then shared through the app with an ophthalmologist for further review. This allows patients valuable insight on their eye health, and the empowering information of whether or not they need to go see an eye specialist (Insight Optics, 2017).
