220 million people worldwide suffer from preventable or treatable blindness. Many are unable to access eye care due to the limited supply of eye specialists and the distance between patients and eye doctors. In the US, 8 million patients every year cannot get same-day care at an eye doctor and resort to visiting emergency rooms or urgent care centers. Unfortunately, both facilities often lack the tools and expertise to properly address eye conditions. According to studies, over 40% of eye diagnoses made at these facilities are inaccurate, often resulting in improper treatment. That's 3 million people who risk vision loss and worsened pain.Do you have a story where lack of access threatened your vision?info@oculartechnologies.io
