The research was developed by Contact Lenses UK to explore the nation's eye health, by analysing participants ‘colour vision’ and ‘perception’.Artificial intelligence in eyecare: how do we ensure new technologies truly benefit our patients?
From monitoring patients with heart disease to improving the early diagnosis of cancer, artificial intelligence (AI) using deep learning techniques is already employed in many different healthcare specialties [1]. In the eyecare field, AI technologies have been used to analyse...Working smarter not harder: How to transform eyecare delivery in the United Kingdom (part 1)
Are we doing enough to meet the current demands on ophthalmic services? In part one of a two-part series (see Part 2 here), Rosalind Harrison takes a look at how efficiency has been improved in eyecare services in the US....Letter from America: Orbit and oculoplastic fellowship, University of California, San Diego
I was the fortunate recipient of the 2012 Keeler Scholarship, granting me the incredible opportunity to undertake a fellowship at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) in orbital, oculoplastic and reconstructive surgery. My fellowship mentors were the renowned Professor...
