Popis: | Storytelling has been long researched in literature and its benefits have been acknowledged. Recently, storytelling has widely been used in health care and has proved to be very helpful in health education. However, the impact of storytelling in several medical specialties has not been investigated. The aim of this paper was to highlight the benefits of using storytelling in Ophthalmology. As technology evolved, storytelling has been transformed into digital storytelling with more benefits for both health care consumers and health care providers. Apart from promoting a constant health education, digital storytelling offers the opportunity to raise the health care consumers' awareness on a specific ophthalmologic disease, and identify proper methods to prevent it, as well as identify the risk factors accordingly. |
