Article Synopsis
- This study evaluates the effectiveness of store-and-forward tele-ophthalmology for diagnosing cataracts, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration in patients over 40 with vision impairment lasting three months or more.
- The research involved comparing tele-ophthalmology results with traditional face-to-face assessments and used statistical measures to determine agreement and accuracy between the two methods.
- Findings indicated that tele-ophthalmology matched in accuracy, particularly excelling in diagnosing AMD with over 99% sensitivity and specificity, while also showing solid performance with cataracts and glaucoma, and both modalities incurred similar costs.
