| dc.description.abstract | Advances in information and communication technology (ICT) are having an increasing impact on the practice of ophthalmology. Successive generations of 4G networks have provided continued improvements in bandwidth and download speeds. Fibre-optic networks were promised as the next step in the development of a faster and more reliable network. However, due to considerable delays in their widespread implementation, original expectations have not been met. Currently, the new 5G network is on the verge of widespread release and aims to offer previously unparalleled bandwidth, speed, reliability and access. This review aims to highlight the potential profound impact near instantaneous communication (the 5G network) may have on ophthalmology and the delivery of eyecare to the global population. Conversely, if the new network fails to deliver as intended, the wireless network itself may become yet another obstacle to adopting next-generation technologies in eyecare.
