[0031] In some embodiments of this application, each ophthalmic examination device at each device position is equipped with a user identification device and a prompting device. The user identification device is used to identify the user, and the prompting device is used to prompt the user to operate the corresponding ophthalmic examination device.

[0032] In one possible implementation, the prompting device includes a speaker.

[0033] In some embodiments of this application, the vehicle body is provided with a spare compartment 117, which is located on one side of the driver's seat 116 and near the window. The spare compartment 117 is used to house a spare testing device. It is understood that the spare testing device can be configured according to the scheduled testing items in the appointment module. For example, when there are too many users scheduling a particular ophthalmological examination, the efficiency of that examination can be improved by adding an ophthalmological testing device for that item to the spare compartment 117.

[0034] In some embodiments of this application, each device is equipped with a user identification device and a prompting device. The user identification device is used to identify the user, and the prompting device is used to prompt the user to operate the corresponding ophthalmic examination device. This ensures that the examination items are matched with the user, preventing the user from using the wrong ophthalmic examination device.

[0035] In some embodiments of this application, the ophthalmic screening vehicle also includes a display device disposed within the vehicle body. The display device is used to guide the user to each device location, so as to facilitate the user to quickly go to the corresponding target device location.

[0036] In some embodiments of this application, the ophthalmology screening vehicle includes a prompting device located inside the vehicle body to guide the user through an ophthalmology examination.

[0037] In one possible implementation, the notification device includes a display screen for displaying information such as the user and target device location, queuing information, etc.

[0038] In some embodiments of this application, the ophthalmic screening vehicle also includes a computer room control center 120, which is located at the rear of the vehicle body. The computer room control center 120 is used to control various devices on the screening vehicle.

[0039] In one possible implementation, the ophthalmology screening vehicle includes a consultation appointment module, a navigation allocation module, a registration and queuing module, a screening upload module, and an intelligent reporting module, all connected to the computer room control center 120. The consultation appointment module is used to obtain user information, including basic user information, appointment time, and examination items. The navigation allocation module is used to determine the target treatment address based on the user information. The registration and queuing module is used to allocate users to the target equipment position based on the user information. The screening upload module is used to input the examination images generated by the ophthalmology examination equipment into the intelligent reporting module. The intelligent reporting module is used to generate preliminary diagnostic results.

[0040] Furthermore, the ophthalmology screening vehicle includes a referral management module, which is connected to the computer room control center 120.

[0041] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The working principle of the mobile ophthalmology screening vehicle includes the following steps:

[0042] The appointment module retrieves user information, including basic user information, appointment time, and examination items.

[0043] In this embodiment, users can access the appointment module through mobile terminal clients, mini programs, or web pages, and make appointments for eye screening services by filling in user information in the appointment module.

[0044] The navigation module determines the target treatment address based on user information;

[0045] In this embodiment, user information includes basic user information, such as user name, place of residence, contact information, and the address to be examined. The allocation and navigation module matches the user's target medical address based on their place of residence or the address to be examined, and then pushes the target medical address to the user using the contact information they provided.

[0046] It's understandable that contact methods can include user accounts, text messages, email addresses, etc.

[0047] The vehicle travels to the target medical address and appointment time to provide eye health services to the user.

[0048] The appointment booking module generates codes;

[0049] In this embodiment, the code serves as a unique identifier for the user. By identifying the code, a specific user can be quickly located, reducing the probability of errors.

[0050] In response to user actions, the registration and queuing module assigns users to the target device position based on user information;

[0051] In this embodiment, users can register for a queue number using a code generated by the appointment module. Specifically, when a user displays the aforementioned code to the scanning window of the queue number registration module, queue number registration is completed. Subsequently, the queue number registration module assigns the user to a target device location based on the user's information and provides the target device location to the user, guiding them to the target device location to receive eye health services.

[0052] In response to user input, the ophthalmic examination equipment generates examination images;

[0053] In this embodiment, the ophthalmic examination device can provide users with operation prompts, allowing users to operate the device independently to perform ophthalmic examinations and generate examination images. This effectively saves labor and reduces screening costs for users.

[0054] The screening and uploading module acquires the examination images generated by the ophthalmic examination equipment and inputs the examination images into the intelligent reporting module;

[0055] The intelligent reporting module generates preliminary diagnostic results based on the examined images. The intelligent reporting module sends the preliminary diagnostic results to the online doctor for interpretation. The intelligent reporting module responds to the online doctor's operation and obtains the final diagnostic result.

[0056] In this embodiment, the screening upload module inputs the examined images into the intelligent reporting module, which then generates a preliminary diagnostic result, thus improving report generation efficiency. Simultaneously, after the preliminary diagnostic result is generated, the intelligent reporting module first sends it to an online doctor for review. The online doctor verifies the report content of the preliminary diagnostic result, and only after confirming its accuracy does the final diagnostic result be generated, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the final diagnostic result.

[0057] In some embodiments of this application, the ophthalmic screening vehicle includes a prompting device disposed within the vehicle body. Specifically, the prompting device guides the user to the target device location for examination via at least one of voice prompts and indicator lights, facilitating quick location and examination for the user. This improves user experience and also helps increase screening efficiency.

[0058] In some embodiments of this application, the ophthalmology screening vehicle includes a referral management module, and the eye health service method includes: the referral management module determining referral recommendations or medication follow-up procedures based on the final diagnosis results.

[0059] In one possible implementation, when the final diagnosis indicates that the user needs further examination or ophthalmological treatment, the referral management module provides referral suggestions to facilitate further examination or treatment for the user.

[0060] In unmanned ophthalmological screening, users may go to the wrong target device for examination, leading to incorrect screening results.
