Background
What started as a simple sequence of e-mail communications during a 1998 ORBIS program to Havana, Cuba, evolved into a full-fledged telemedicine program called Cyber-Sight in 2003. Today, Cyber-Sight makes it possible for ophthalmologists in developing countries to benefit from the knowledge and experience of ORBIS volunteer faculty whenever the need arises.
