The shortage of pediatric ophthalmologists presents an opportunity to leverage existing tools and re-imagine care delivery to support this patient population. By directly interfacing with the eye, wearable health devices provide a localized and potentially more accurate assessment of certain eye conditions. In addition to early detection, wearable health-based devices (wearables) can enable data collection over time and serve as adjuvant treatment to the standard clinic- or surgical-based solutions. We highlight some innovations in wearables targeted for common categories of pediatric eye disease: refractive errors, strabismus, dry eye disease, and glaucoma. In addition to integrating preventive medicine with ophthalmology, wearables generate data that can be funneled into addressing research questions and refining device development.
儿科眼科医生的短缺为利用现有工具和重新构想医疗服务以支持这一患者群体提供了契机。通过直接与眼睛接触，可穿戴健康设备能够对某些眼部疾病进行局部且可能更准确的评估。除了早期检测外，基于可穿戴健康的设备（可穿戴设备）还可以随着时间的推移进行数据收集，并作为基于标准诊所或手术的解决方案的辅助治疗手段。我们重点介绍了针对常见儿科眼病类型的可穿戴设备的一些创新：屈光不正、斜视、干眼症和青光眼。除了将预防医学与眼科相结合外，可穿戴设备还能生成数据，这些数据可用于解决研究问题和改进设备开发。
