glaucare is addressing the global issue of limited access to ophthalmological care, affecting 2.5 billion people worldwide, according to the World Health Organisation. Their mission is to prevent blindness caused by eye diseases such as age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataract, diabetic retinopathy, and infections, especially in regions with few or no eye doctors.

glaucare has developed ophmo, a mobile eye clinic that allows eye doctors, clinics, and local health organizations to conduct preventive eye examinations in rural areas. Medical assistants trained by glaucare register and measure patients, with data visualized through an app for ophthalmologists to make remote diagnoses. The system facilitates timely treatment to prevent blindness.

The ophmo case is a compact suitcase containing an iPad with the app, measuring devices, and accessories, designed for ease of use with color-coded components for quick learning.

Glaucare's solution has been tested in Kenya and is attracting interest from West and East Africa as well as South-East Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. The goal is to spread access to ophthalmological care globally.

For inquiries or orders regarding the ophmo cases, interested parties are encouraged to contact glaucare via email at [email protected] or phone at +49 30 590 083 322.
