This app allows professional optometrists to communicate with the individual who requires refraction. The tele-refraction system using remote consultation is deployed to a network of trained technicians who get connected to available optometrists who provide real-time supervision and control of visual acuity and refraction. Once both optometrist and individual are satisfied, the optometrist ends the call and validate the updated prescription.
