Dr. Singman is on Doximity
As a Doximity member, you’ll join more than three million U.S. healthcare professionals—including 85+% of physicians, and 2/3 of all NPs and PAs—in a private, secure network.
- Gain access to free telehealth tools, such as our “call shielding” and one-way patient texting.
- Connect with colleagues in the same hospital or clinic.
- Read the latest clinical news, personalized to your specialty.
Summary
- Audacious Goal: Combine the strengths of telemedicine with the growing capabilities of automating the ophthalmic exam to be able to diagnose and treat the major causes of vision loss worldwide, regardless of current accessibility to healthcare. That might mean detecting amblyopia, refractive errors, strabismus and glaucoma through remote sensing devices, or delivering medications by drones, cutting of spectacle lenses through CNC technology, or providing cataract surgery and intravitreal injections robotically. The dream is within reach.
