These were analyzed retrospectively by 35 reviewers (21 residents and 14 attending physicians). Accuracy of diagnosis was compared to in-office fundus photography.Results: The average probability of correct diagnosis was over 78%. There was no difference between resident and attending reviewers, except for one of the vitreous hemorrhage cases where residents performed better (p=0.039).Conclusion: Smartphone-based cameras are effective in screening for ocular diseases in the ER of academic centers, where residents and fellows are often the first providers to see various types of vision and life-threatening pathology.Keywords: fundus camera, emergency room, posterior segment, smartphone, retina |
