Abstract

The article focuses on a long distance wi-fi network developed by researchers to provide residents of remote villages in India access to eye care. It states that the network assigns eye specialists based at the Arvind Eye Hospital at Theni, South India to check and interview patients in 9 remote clinics through high-quality video. It adds that the new system applies fixed links between the remote vision centres and the hospital.
