How it works?

Peek is focused on making the invisible visible in eye health. Our platform helps bring services to last-mile healthcare and power our partners to reach the people who are typically left behind.

In Pakistan, the first CBM program using Peek launched in 2018 with just three sites. It has since expanded to connect more than 130 health facilities across two provinces with over 1,500 schools being integrated. 1,500 female health workers are being trained to use Peek for household screening. Referrals to a district hospital in Pakistan for refractive errors decreased from 41% to just 1% after Peek was introduced. Refractive errors could instead be treated at the primary level, freeing up specialist hospital resources for more complex conditions. Trials in Kenya showed that three times more people received care when the programme was supported by Peek. An economic evaluation in Kenya has demonstrated a substantial cost saving per patient when Peek was compared to the standard of care. The study calculated average savings of US$8.61 per patient at the primary care level and US$263.60 per patient at the hospital level when using Peek.
