Accuracy of a popular online symptom checker for ophthalmic diagnoses

JAMA Ophthalmology Jun 18, 2019

Shen C, et al. - Through a vignette-based, cross-sectional study, the researchers intended to determine the accuracy of the most popular online symptom checker for ophthalmic diagnoses.

Requirement of further research to reflect the real-life application of internet diagnostic resources is suggestive.
