A mobile phone using the Cybersight telemedicine platform

Cybersight

Cybersight is our award-winning telemedicine platform. Through Cybersight, our expert volunteers teach and support eye care teams around the world using the latest advancements in internet and mobile technologies.

Cybersight is a digital extension of our mission. It increases our ability to provide training and support with our local partners. With Cybersight, we can make an impact in places where a physical presence simply isn't possible due to cost, logistics or security.

Our expert volunteers provide on-demand advice for complex cases, mentoring local eye care professionals on diagnosis and treatment of their patients. We help combat geographic isolation with easy access to an expert second opinion.

We also make sure that everyone benefits from our training activities on-board the Flying Eye Hospital, wherever it is in the world. We broadcast live lectures and surgeries to partner hospitals and classrooms around the globe. Remote participants enjoy a similar experience as those in the on-board classroom: they see surgeries through the operating microscope and can ask questions of expert surgeons and lecturers in real-time.

Dr. Ijilmurun

Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia

The Cyber­sight team and men­tors have played a major part in my pro­fes­sion­al devel­op­ment as an oph­thal­mol­o­gist. Due to the lack of up-to-date knowl­edge in the Mon­go­lian oph­thal­mol­o­gy sec­tor I rely heav­i­ly on the train­ing and men­tor­ship from Cyber­sight. Because of Cyber­sight I can learn every day, non­stop from excel­lent men­tors. You are a life-chang­ing force.

Cybersight is also a living library of our collective training efforts, freely available to all eye health professionals including current and future generations of nurses, optometrists, anesthesiologists and ophthalmologists.

Cybersight in Action

In 2018,we completed our first ever remote surgical mentorship by observing cataract surgery on a 5-year-old girl in Peru from the US. Through Cybersight, they were able to review all prepared cases and discuss appropriate treatment. Cybersight meant that the two ophthalmologists could strengthen their relationship and share learning, despite the distance.
