Peek Vision is a social enterprise that develops evidence-based smartphone tools for eye health organisations to tackle the global vision crisis and improve access to eye care in low- and middle-income countries. Its smartphone technology allows non-specialists – such as teachers and community health workers – to conduct vision screening and eye health surveys in homes, communities and schools. Eye health services using Peek can screen for eye health conditions by using a smartphone app to conduct vision checks and then track patients through the health system.
