Ophthalmology goes digital - Be there!
In our first part of our VR and AR series, we generally outlined how this technology in ophthalmology can make the lives of doctors and patients easier. Now it gets more concrete: In the first hands-on part, we visit the company Haag-Streit Simulation in Mannheim, Germany, and test the new ROP simulator.
We have prepared a series of articles for you again: What do Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality offer in ophthalmology? In this article we summarize the topic for you - then it becomes concrete. We visit Haag Streit Simulation in Mannheim, Germany and then try out the latest device from the US start-up TwentyTwenty Therapeutics from San Francisco, CA, USA.
Digital technologies are expanding and complementing more and more examination techniques in ophthalmology. "Digital technologies" is a somewhat fuzzy term in this context. In this article, we bring some order to the different digital technologies in ophthalmology.
In the last two parts of our series on what a digital ophthalmology practice might look like, we first looked at setup in general. After highlighting specific products in the second part, we now move on to the conclusion. Where do we see opportunities, what could be problematic? Let's get started!
In the last post, we generally highlighted the setup of a digital eye care practice. This time we will be more specific! What exactly do we need to build a digital eye care practice? What software? Which devices? We also talk about app integration, VR devices, and home devices! Let's take a look!
With the increasing possibilities of digitalization in medicine, more and more completely digital ophthalmic practices are now emerging, pushed by the COVID-19 pandemic. This time, we have taken a closer look at the topic of digital ophthalmology practices in a 3-part series. We will first discuss general aspects of organizing a digital practice. Then we move on to the concrete implementation. After that, we will focus on the advantages and disadvantages. Learn more now with part 1!
