Many areas with the highest prevalence of unaddressed sight loss struggle to develop programmes that can reach those in need, ensuring that everyone is screened, diagnosed and treated.<\/p>\n

Peek Vision<\/a> is a social enterprise that began as an ICEH research project in 2012. Peek initially developed the world\u2019s first clinically-validated visual acuity smartphone test<\/strong>, enabling health volunteers to provide simple vision checks through their phone in remote areas.<\/p>\n

Since then Peek has expanded into a software system that enable eye health programmes to screen people, analyse the data they create, design programmes and track the patient journey to treatment and beyond<\/strong>. This ensures that no one is left behind and eye health services can operate efficiently and at scale.<\/p>\n

As of mid-2025, Peek has now been used to screen 14 million people and connected 1.5m people to eye care<\/strong>, with numbers increasing exponentially. Peek is powering 80 live programmes<\/strong> in 12 countries<\/strong> through a wide variety of partnerships.\u00a0<\/p>\n

ICEH and Peek continue to work together closely<\/a>, collaborating on research projects, service programmes, education and data collection. All of Peek\u2019s products and services are validated through trials.<\/p>\n
