Abstract

One of the greatest burdens facing patients with eye-related pathologies is access to ophthalmologists in the area. Teleophthalmology is a way for eye examinations to be conducted in the easily-accessible primary care setting, with images sent to ophthalmologists for interpretation. This project addresses the perceptions of this model amongst patients and primary care physicians.
