These features are absent from currently available competing devices and are of value in the diagnosis and management of numerous eye diseases. These diseases include diabetic retinopathy, hypertensive retinopathy, retinal dystrophy, retinal disorder secondary to carotid disease, retino-choroidal infection and inflammation, retinal detachment, choroidal cancers as well as benign tumors, and other medical conditions. The instruments are expected to facilitate the handling of patients, leading to more efficient referrals, more accurate diagnosis, and more favorable care outcomes.
