摘要

A system and method to identify and track eye-related symptoms are presented. A method of identifying an appropriate eye-care provider or to alert an established provider of new eye-related symptoms based on a user's experienced symptoms are disclosed. Based on a user's experienced symptoms, the system may provide for identifying an appropriate eye-care provider by providing the field of medicine, subfield of medicine, individual eye-care providers, or alert information relating to the user's experienced symptoms. The system may enable users or eye-care providers to track user symptoms as a means of determining whether prompt treatment of such symptoms is necessary. The system may assess a user's experienced symptoms and inform a user or an eye-care provider of whether the user needs prompt treatment.
