iXope: Advancing in-clinic eye examinations and procedures
Common ophthalmoscopes used in primary care allow healthcare providers to detect a foreign body in a patient’s eye, but they cannot remove it. This forces them to refer the patient to the hospital, where they face long wait times - and potentially a lengthy journey as well.
Traditional ophthalmoscopes often create barriers to effective in-clinic eye care due to:
- Limited visibility of eye structures: A direct ophthalmoscope only provides a narrow view, making it difficult to assess the retina
- Close proximity during examination: Doctors are just a few centimetres from the patient's face during eye exams, a position that can be uncomfortable for both the patient and the clinician.
- Inability to use ophthalmoscopes: Doctors who wear glasses often find it difficult to use ophthalmoscopes effectively.
- No in-clinic procedure capability: Without a slit lamp, foreign body removal and detailed corneal assessments require an urgent referral, delaying care.
- Lack of digital imaging: Traditional tools don’t capture images, making it harder to share findings with specialists and requiring manual documentation for medico-legal protection.
- Unnecessary specialist referrals: Many patients with minor eye concerns are sent to ophthalmologists or forced to present at pressured hospital emergency departments when treatment could have been handled in general practice.
