摘要：

We describe the establishment of a new tele-eye care solution over a Broadband Satellite service, connecting metropolitan-based ophthalmologists to patients with eye conditions in rural and remote Australia. A trial of the service demonstrates the ability of the telehealth system to close the gap in access to eye care services for adult Australians living in under-served rural and remote communities, preventing needless blindness.
