Abstract
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina | * BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The objective of this pilot study was to determine whether a new screening system, the DigiScope (EyeTel Imaging, Inc., Columbia, MD), can detect the presence of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) at a level requiring referral to an ophthalmologist for further evaluation and possible treatment.* PATIENTS AND METHODS: The DigiScope is an Internet-basedKeywords
