What is a remote Optos?

Remote Optos are professionals who operate Optos imaging devices and software remotely to capture high-resolution retinal images for eye care. They assist optometrists and ophthalmologists by providing necessary imaging services without being physically present in the clinic. This role typically involves guiding patients through the imaging process via telehealth platforms, ensuring image quality, and securely transmitting results to doctors for diagnosis. Remote Optos play a crucial part in expanding access to eye care, especially for patients in underserved or remote areas.
