Home-monitoring/remote optical coherence tomography in teleophthalmology in patients with eye disorders-a systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Teleophthalmology uses technology to provide remote eye care services, tackling obstacles in accessing specialized care. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) represents a technical advancement, enabling high-resolution ocular imaging. The aim of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy, feasibility, safety, and clinical utility of home monitoring OCT devices and remote OCT technology compared to standard in-office OCT in teleophthalmology settings across various eye conditions.

Materials and methods

A systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed, Cochrane Library, ScienceDirect and Google Scholar for studies on home-monitoring/remote OCT published from January 2004 to February 2024. Studies utilizing home monitoring/remote OCT in teleophthalmology
