Abstract
We are living in a mobile world, where the number of medical apps is surging in recent years. Over 320 000 healthcare apps are now available as shown in the latest research. The major function and potential of these apps vary, from assisting the learning and practice of clinicians as well as achieving better outcomes of patients to preventing eye diseases through the education of healthy individuals. However, based on the various features, ophthalmology apps nowadays contain a wide range of subjects and focus on different stakeholders in the ophthalmic practice, including but not limited to doctors, patients, and researchers. Here, we review special and advanced apps that ophthalmologists will find useful in their clinical practice.
