Smartphone technology is advancing at a rapid pace. Their role in day-to-day life is becoming more and more intricate and irreplaceable. Of late, they have gained immense importance in different medical specialities where they possess an active ability to guide the clinician. This is particularly evident in ophthalmology, where the constantly evolving camera-illumination systems and the artificial intelligence integrated technology have unravelled many novel observations for non-contact posterior segment imaging. The scope of this review is to highlight the role of smartphones as ophthalmoscopes (direct as well as indirect). Nevertheless, their limitations and future directions are also stated here with the intention of making progress in the field of smartphone fundus imaging.
智能手机技术正在飞速发展。它们在日常生活中的作用正变得越来越复杂且不可替代。近来，它们在不同医学专科中变得极为重要，具备指导临床医生的实际能力。这在眼科尤为明显，不断发展的摄像照明系统和集成人工智能技术为非接触性眼后段成像带来了许多新发现。本综述的范围是突出智能手机作为检眼镜（直接和间接）的作用。然而，这里也阐述了它们的局限性和未来发展方向，以期在智能手机眼底成像领域取得进展。
