Blindness
A Global threat
Problem
• Blindness is a Global threat to health and productivity
• Of the 39 Mn blind people in the world 12 Mn live in India
• Africa has approximately 19% of the world’s blindness
• 80% blindness caused due to –
• Cataract / Glaucoma / Refractive Errors/ Diabetic Retinopathy/AMD
• Of the 60 Mn Diabetic patients in India 20% will develop diabetic retinopathy

80% of blindness can be prevented if pre-screened

Challenges
• Scalability – Low Patient-to-Ophthalmologist ratio; 1:70000 in India
• Affordability – Expensive devices which require trained ophthalmologist
• Rural reach – Only 7-10% of the people are screened on time
• Awareness – Lack of awareness about detecting eye disorders early

An Effective Pre-screening tool is the Unmet need! 27


Addressing the Unmet Need!

Scalability
• Take the Ophthalmology pre-screening closer to the patient
• Create a new market for remote ophthalmology pre-screening – “Paradigm Change”
• Enable diagnostic labs, diabetes centers, clinics etc to perform ophthalmology screening

Affordability
• Indigenously developed in India
• Robust device with minimum complexity
• Low maintenance cost and zero consumables
Rural Reach
• Non-Mydriatic, Non-invasive & portable device
• Robust system to be operated in rustic environments
• Minimally skilled technician required to operate device
Awareness
• Create awareness about the importance of detecting ophthalmic diseases early

Take Away’s for Policy & Strategy
• IT not just for “big boys” or rich yuppies...can play
transformational role in society, polity and economy
• Refocusing Strategic Priorities for Indian IT in Next Decade
...Domestic Markets and Developing/Emerging Countries
...Not just about Growth, also about Learning
• Affordability, Scalability, Reach and Education/Awareness
Key to Direction of Entrepreneurship & Innovation
• Innovation is More Than R&D, Even D&E of Products
...Service Dimensions and “Business Models” also Salient
• Government Critical to Shaping “Demand” or Ecosystem
• Advance Market Commitment (e.g. Laptops for Students)
• Platforms (e.g. Aadhar)
• Incentives and Regulation
