1. A method of monitoring an ocular anatomy of a patient, the method comprising:
receiving an initiation command from a location of the patient;
transmitting, in response to receiving the initiation command, and over a network, an alert for remote monitoring of the ocular anatomy of the patient to a location of a physician remote from the location of the patient;
capturing, using a first imaging section including a first imaging sensor at the location of the patient, a plurality of images of the ocular anatomy of the patient, the first imaging section being rotatable such that each of the plurality of images is captured with the first imaging section rotated to a different degree;
transmitting, over the network, the plurality of images to the location of the physician;
displaying at least one image of the plurality of images at the location of the physician for determination of whether an in-person examination of the ocular anatomy of the patient is warranted; and
communicating an instruction from the location of the physician to the location of the patient indicating whether the in-person examination is warranted.
