Overview of sessions in English

Mobile Technology has introduced significant changes to eye care, last but not least in low-resource settings. Smartphones gain increasing popularity and due to their ubiquity and multifunctionality they might pave the way for the next revolution in medicine. This is especially the case in Ophthalmology, where they allow for smartphone-based funduscopy, an easy and extremely mobile eye examination. This symposium will highlight current promising developments and applications of smartphones and mHealth in Ophthalmology and will also show how mHealth is successfully being utilized in other fields than Ophthalmology.
