Improving Access to Eye Care Through Community Health Screenings Using Artificial Intelligence.
Ophthalmic Epidemiology 2024 Februrary 22
PURPOSE: To the best of our knowledge, implementation of artificial intelligence (AI)-based vision screening in community health fair settings has not been previously studied. This prospective cohort study explored the incorporation of AI in a community health fair setting to improve access to eyecare.
METHODS: Vision screening was implemented during a community health fair event using an AI-based non-mydriatic fundus camera. In addition, a questionnaire was provided to survey the various barriers to eyecare and assess eye health literacy.
RESULTS: A total of 53 individuals were screened at this event. Notably, about 88% of participants had follow-up appointments scheduled accordingly with an approximate 62% attendance rate. The most reported barrier to eyecare was lack of health insurance followed by transportation.
CONCLUSION: The addition of AI-based vision screening in community health fairs may ultimately help improve access to eye care.
