Eyes on Eyes

If I identify things incorrectly, does it mess up the data?

Not at all! We don’t expect that every identification will be right. That is why we show the same images to lots of people, and combine all of those answers. We think that overall, people will be pretty good at identifying things (even if they are guessing!). By getting a lot of people to make identifications, we can be pretty confident in the answer. For images that are really difficult and we don’t get a high level of agreement, we will make sure that those images are reviewed and identified by an expert.

How do I delete a mark I make on the scan?

If you want to delete a line or mark, just click on it and click the cross icon in the black circle.

Do the lines have to touch when I finish tracing around the chamber?

You can draw multiple lines, so take your time and be as accurate as you can! Use the Zoom function if you need to see the image in more detail. Don't worry if your lines don't match up perfectly! If you make a mistake or would like another go, select the line you want to delete and click on the cross icon.

When I zoom in, things get blurry. How am I supposed to identify cells like that?

While zooming in can sometimes help, it can remove the contrast between the cells and their surrounding. You'll likely have better luck if you are a bit zoomed out and you can see more of the anterior chamber.

Is there a save button to come back to the same image later on/on a different day?

Unfortunately we don't have a save tool, please just do what you can, then click 'Done', and come back to visit us another day!
