Method and System for Self-Administering a Visual Examination Using a Mobile Computing Device

摘要

Novel vision monitoring and screening testing tools and help-seeking enablers that may be used individually as or in combination with vision monitoring and screening testing systems that improves patients' ability to recognize onset and progression of visual changes over time. Patients' ability to identify acute or chronic visual conditions on their own may drive earlier help-seeking behavior by the patient, enable earlier clinical diagnosis by an eye care specialist, and therefore resulting in earlier treatment and reduced likelihood of severe vision loss.
