Overview
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the performance, operational efficiency, acceptability, feasibility, and cost-effectiveness of an AI-assisted screening model for visual impairment in a community setting. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Can the AI-assisted screening model improve screening and referral accuracy compared to the current traditional screening approach?
- Does the AI-assisted model enhance operational efficiency and reduce healthcare costs in a community setting?
Researchers will compare the AI-assisted model with the current traditional screening approach to assess its impact on screening accuracy, operational efficiency, and cost-effectiveness.
Participants will:
- Undergo vision screening using either the AI-assisted model or the traditional model.
- Provide feedback on the acceptability of the screening approach.
- Contribute to evaluating the feasibility and costs associated with each screening method.
