5 ways Apple smart glasses could transform healthcare workflows.

Part 3 of 3

As Apple moves closer to launching its smart glasses, the opportunity for healthcare transformation is massive.

Here are just a few ways this technology could radically reshape the way care is delivered:

1. Ambient Documentation

Capture patient encounters passively, generate visit notes, billing codes, and next-step suggestions automatically without typing or clicking.

2. Instant Clinical Insights

Integrate with platforms like OpenEvidence, allowing doctors to ask clinical questions and receive evidence-based answers in real time, mid-conversation, without interrupting care.

3. Real-Time Lab and Imaging Summaries

Lab results, imaging findings, and AI-generated interpretations could appear instantly, prioritized by clinical relevance, right in your field of view.

4. Hands-Free Specialist Consults

Launch telehealth consults instantly, sharing your exact perspective, and collaborating seamlessly with experts across town or across the world.

5. Smarter Training and Education

Overlay anatomy guides, procedural instructions, or diagnostic checklists during training or critical procedures, turning every encounter into a learning opportunity.

The combination of ambient intelligence, real-time context, and true hands-free interaction could change the healthcare experience for both doctors and patients.

The future will not just be faster, it will be smarter, more personal, and radically more human.

I am excited for what is coming next. We are only at the beginning of what is possible.
