Description:
Eye2Phone - ophthalmologic tests in your hands!
EyePhone is a portable tool for ophthalmology practitioners, physicians and students that will help a lot in their daily routine.
It includes the most usual tests in your hands:
- Near Visual Acuity
- Distance E
- Ishihara (Color Test)
- Amsler grid
- A powerful flash light tool (a clean white screen)
- Target for fixation tests
- Pupil Gauge
These amazing tools will be available for free download during the first months. We are already planning version 2.0, which will have many other sophisticated tests that will come in hand!
Check our website for a tutorial, and feel free to suggest any other functions.

Reviews:
A pretty good app for eye care professionals and doctors - but some improvements could be made.

Initially this didn't sync with my iPod touch 2nd gen but now does. This is a big improvement!
A pretty good app for eye care professionals and doctors - but some improvements could be made. This app could have better navigation (with buttons at the bottom as well as the top) and instructions. Also a few different options for distance acuity (a mini letter chart) and near acuity (English text in different point sizes) would be good. Currently numbers and illiterate E's are used. The pupil gague should have the pupil sizes near the edge of the screen for easier comparison and some different fixation images instead of the single one provided. Also some eye diagrams such as a schematic cross section and an ocular fundus should be provided to complete this app.
It does have an Amsler grid and Isihara colour testing plates which are excellent.
All in all this is a good start and the authors should be encouraged!
At long last.......

A much anticipated app. Thank you so much for now. Will post further reviews later but just too happy to fully try app yet.
It's a eYeTest on your iPhone !

Very nice app and easy to use. The color tests are very handy to do on the go like at a free screening. Cant wait to see the new features in the update.
Things that would be nice to see added:
Various calculators (i.e. Glaucoma risk, Ks to base curve, etc)
A "back" button
More great test (Park Three Step, etc)
keep up the good work!!
Good app

A fun app to use. I'm just not sure how useful it is in real life.
Wonderful app!

This one is just brilliant and deserves a lot more publicity. At the time I wrote this, it was grossly under-rated for silly reasons.
Well done

How about a Snellen chart too?

Well I guess I'm color blind! This is a great app! The color blind test works, it's nice having a test on the go.

Some tests have no desript

Please ad descriptions in future updates because I don't understand half the tests but this would be 5 star if it did
Read the description carefully!

I didn't, and so only realized that THIS IS AN APP FOR PROFESSIONAL OPTHALMOLOGISTS ONLY!
There are no instructions and no tests to measure yourself, it is a tool for medics. My fault for not checking, but it really should have that bit on bold type or something.
I'm sure it is a great app, and of much use to the right people, but certainly not for the majority.
Good app but could be great

I've had app for months now without any updates!! 1st, there are too many color plates... 10 would be fine and they should be swipable. The "Next" button is too close to the "i" button. Making them swipable would eliminate this problem and shortening the number of plates would alow you to use the most useful plates easier as the ones that differentiate between Protan and Deutan defects are near the end of the queue! Lastly, the amsler grid needs to be larger and the grid pattern not so small. Currently, it only picks up field anomalies at edge of FAZ at normal 16 in viewing distance. PLEASE update and make this a GREAT app instead of just good.

Is anyone else a little bothered by the typo in the description?
Okay but not spectacular

Would be useful to be able to navigate back to menu. Would be better to use a Rosenbaum chart for near vision.
Good start

Good first attempt. It might be more helpful to have a standard Snellen chart. When you're trying to have someone read the near field acuity chart, it is difficult to differentiate between lines if they're not reading 100% (how about the color bar separators or at least some acuity markers on the right side?)
Eh.....it's okay

It's cool to check your eyes but when u do the color test it freeze way to much. But hey it's free and u can also delete it.
Not useful

Unless you're an optimetrist, there's really no point in getting this app other than to see if you have colour deficiency

Good idea, but errors 
By: tekjew - Oct 14, 2008

The color test is quite helpful, but the other tools range from gimmicky (the iPhone as a flashlight for testing pupillary response? It's not direct enough) to inaccurate (the pupil sizes are all off by 1 to 1.5 mm, the Amsler is not the right size to provide macular coverage, etc.).
Also, I'm a little weirded out by seeing Dr. Neves in the splash screen, but maybe that's just me.
