Abstract
In an ophthalmic system of some embodiments, ophthalmic imaging apparatuses include slit lamp microscopes, and information processing system is connected to each ophthalmic imaging apparatus via a communication path. Each ophthalmic imaging apparatus is configured to acquire a three dimensional image by photographing a subject's eye, and transmit the three dimensional image to the information processing system. The information processing system is configured to receive the three dimensional image, store three dimensional images received, perform machine learning and/or data mining based on the three dimensional images, store knowledge acquired by the machine learning and/or data mining, and generate diagnosis support information by performing inference based on a three dimensional image of a subject's eye transmitted from one of the slit lamp microscopes knowledge stored in the knowledge storage.
