Abstract
A stand-alone station such as a kiosk (10) includes automated equipment for performing eye examination procedures on a user positioned in the station (11). Information derived from the examination determines possible existence of a correctable medical condition. The station includes a user interface (22) and a fulfillment remedy section (30) that addresses the medical condition, as by fabrication of eyeglasses (32) for correction of refraction error, or by communicating treatments through the user interface to the user for treating such conditions as age-related macula degeneration, Alzheimer's disease, or visual field impairment. The station also includes a payment device (24) allowing the user to directly pay for the procedure and to indirectly pay using identified health insurance coverage.
