Last month, Apple unveiled an upgraded version of all its products from an iPhone to its latest Macbook and mini tabs. The iPhone 13 was introduced with four new variants adding to the lineup.
Now, Apple phones are known for their cameras and photography. Most iPhones are bought on the basis of their camera and lens quality. This year, Apple included macro photography to the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max. This service was already available for Android users for years but Apple just introduced it.
In a rare case, an ophthalmologist has been found using the iPhone 13 Pro Max to diagnose his patients. Yes, a doctor is using an iPhone as a method of testing the eyesight of his patients.
Dr Tommy Korn, an opthalmologist, took to LinkedIn to introduce his new gadget to his audience. The doctor has been clicking up-close pictures of his patients' eyes using the macro mode on the iPhone 13 Pro Max and posting it on his page. According to him, this can help doctors to understand medical issues and disorders in a better way.
Unlike Android phones, Apple also installed an ultra-wide camera with its macro lens that helps take a clear picture of objects as near as two centimetres from the lens.
For example, Dr Korn recently used a study of a patient who had received a cornea transplant that helped doctors examine the patient's eyes to see if the abrasion has healed.
The doctor posted, "Been using the iPhone 13 Pro Max for MACRO eye photos this week. Impressed. Will innovate patient eye care & telemedicine. forward to seeing where it goes… Photos are from healing a resolving abrasion in a cornea transplant. Permission was obtained to use photos. PS: this "Pro camera" includes a telephone app too!"
