Digital Eye Health; towards remote monitoring in eyecare
Our project starts in July 2020 and will take 30 months to complete. The goal of this project is to rapidly make available remote eye care for patients and their doctors in the current COVID-19 crisis, to support availability and accessibility of eye care in the aftermath of the COVID-19 crisis, and to improve the existing tool into a clinically validated and integrated platform, enabling the heralded sustainable digital transition in eye health.
