Enables researchers from the School of Medicine at Stanford University to develop an inexpensive device is linked to smart phones iPhone , and is used in the process of examining the eyes that normally require special equipment ophthalmic costing tens of thousands of dollars .The university hopes to be any Joe (EyeGo), a name that launched the project managers on the new device , useful for primary care physicians in the United States and the countries of the Third World.And described the new device that makes it easy for anyone with a minimum of training , take a picture of the eye and share them securely with other health practitioners or stored in the electronic patient record .For his part, Robert Chang , assistant professor of ophthalmology , and one of the operators of the project : Think you take a picture of your eye and share the Anstagram .The device Aye Joe highlighted through the lens of the eye ball and then reflected again , where the glass lenses to focus the image on the camera phone iPhone , what allowed to take detailed pictures of each of the front and rear of the eye.It can then , and promptly add imagery to medical records for review at a later date by a specialist , or even can be transmitted factor of primary health care in remote area to a specialist who can provide advice on the medical care required for the injury may be experiencing eye It may be for the use of smart phones for the eyes, according to what was said by David Myeong , a specialist in ophthalmology and in charge of the second project , the ability to enhance the provision of health care to the eye, and in particular, to provide that in remote places that are difficult to access.The organizers of the project is that it has been manufacturing the prototype of Joe docking components are commonly available on the Internet , and that they hope everyone in the future of these components by printing three-dimensional printers .The researchers have recently received financial support to launch the device commercially , which now costs about $ 90, and it is hoped that these devices are available at a lower price when it is produced on a large scale .
