New infographic / Diabetic retinopathy

Diabetic retinopathy is a disease that affects the retina, can be considered a complication in disease evolution and, if it is not detected, can cause serious vision problems. It occurs as a result of damage that high levels of sugar exert on the blood vessels, these can dilate and increase their permeability, producing fumes of their content or they can be partially or totally narrowed,…

About Age-related macular degeneration and why do we advise the See Far glasses to be used

  What is AMD Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a degenerative condition of the central retina (macula). In macular degeneration, very important light-sensitive photoreceptors and retina pigment epithelium begin to break down, causing gradual loss of the central vision. The condition may change to a more severe stage with severe vision loss and blindness1. AMD is one of the leading causes of vision impairment globally…

About Cataract and why do we advise the See Far glasses to be used

  What is Cataract  A cataract is an opacification of the eye’s natural lens that prevents the light rays from reaching the retina, leading to visual impairment. The lens becomes less flexible, less transparent, and thicker causing loss of vision1. Proteins and fibers within the lens build up, break down, and clump together, clouding the lenses,2. Cataracts are the leading cause of blindness in the…

2021 – The Rise of Telemedicine

From the beginning of the COVID pandemic back in March 2020, telemedicine is taking healthcare to the next level. It is promising to make state-of-the-art healthcare more accessible and fast, without the need to wait hours in line. The ongoing pandemic forced institutions and regulatory bodies to select alternative ways of providing healthcare services while limiting exposure to the virus. Telemedicine is bridging the gap…

Sensor-based behavioral informatics in See Far.

Sensor-based behavioral informatics in See Far.

The field of behavioral informatics has the potential to optimize interventions through monitoring, assessing, and modeling behavior in support of providing tailored and timely interventions. The See Far patient-centered research is ongoing utilizing a wearable sensing ecosystem and machine learning/AI to optimize the interventions. The latter is performed through the Smart Personalised profile which is a software component of the See Far solution. One of…

The COVID 19 pandemic triggers the need for telemedicine

The COVID 19 pandemic triggers the need for telemedicine. The See Far project proposes a new model of specialized medical care that provides greater accessibility for everyone. It is estimated that approximately 180 million people in the world do  have diabetes and needs fundus examinations for good control and follow-up. Other diseases such as age-related macular degeneration or glaucoma are equally prevalent in society and…
