RESUMEN
The popularity of intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy continues to increase due to its relative safety, high skin coverage rate and ability to treat both vascular and pigmented lesions. An often-overlooked risk is the potential for IPL-induced ocular damage. The damage sustained can cause significant, persistent morbidity and can occur even with very limited IPL exposure to the eye.

We present our experience creating a digital retinoscope by combining a mobile smartphone camera and a retinoscope. We found this digital retinoscope to be useful for demonstrating and documenting abnormal retinoscopic reflexes in teaching retinoscopy. This report explains how the digital retinoscope is assembled and provides examples of the range of normal and abnormal reflexes that can be captured. A short video showcases the reflexes being obtained in real time.
