Slit-lamp photo imaging is a superior method for examination of trabeculectomy eyes compared with 2D photo imaging. The remote slit-lamp system shows similar potential to the slit-lamp system for the evaluation of trabeculectomy eyes, although the evaluation time is much longer.
The remote slit lamp has a similar diagnostic ability, but required more examination time in comparison to the conventional slit lamp. The currently developed remote slit lamp has the potential to be employed for tele-medicine purposes in the field of ophthalmology.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
