Benefits of the training system in comparison with conventional teaching methods
are the availability of a wide range of clinically relevant cases as well as detailed
evaluation of both procedural and diagnostic skills.
Target Groups
All students of medicine have to learn how to examine the fundus. Handling of the
ophthalmoscope and correct positioning of the magnifying lens require a good deal
of practice. Frequently, the pupil of the examined person is artificially dilated with
drops. As a result, the eyes will be uncomfortably sensitive to light for hours
afterwards. This new simulator system now allows ophthalmoscopic training
without any stress on patients. The technology is designed to permit medical
training of ophthalmologists and optometrists as well as general practitioners,
internists, diabetologists, gynaecologists, neurologists and orthopedic surgeons. It
is also possible for educators to have cases added to the database as required.
Augmented reality technology enables realistic training of retinal
examinations
The simulator consists of a head-mounted display, a patient model head as well
as a freely movable diagnostic lens. This setup is operated exactly like a real
ophthalmoscope. A PC with touch screen is used for system control.
The integrated augmented reality technology provides a realistic experience of
retinal examinations. Looking through the data eyeglasses, the user can see the
