  3. Realistic Handling • Head-mounteddisplaywithvirtual light source • Different lenses • Virtual patientswith a widerangeofpathologies • Light sourceandlenshavetobeexactlyalignedin front ofthevirtualpatient– just aswitha real indirectophthalmoscope.

  4. Lifelike Experience Due toAugmented Reality The userseeshisreal surroundings in 3D throughthehead-mounteddisplay. An imageofthevirtualpatientismappedontotheblackmodelhead.

  5. Intuitive User Interface • The self-explaining control elements for light adjustment, lens selection, and the patient‘s viewing direction are easily controlled per touch screen. • The graphical user interface reflects the sub-steps of a retinal examination: • Ophthalmoscopy • Findings • Diagnoses

  6. Didactical Concept for Structured Learning A curriculum of four tiers facilitates independent and structured learning. It was developed with ophthalmologists, lecturers, and learners. The cases are created by VRmagic in collaboration with universities, hospitals, and professional associations. Each tier comprises several courses with a multitude of cases each.

  7. Tier A: Examination Skills • Tier A trains the handling of an indirect ophthalmoscope by means of abstract cases. • Different icons are arranged on the retina. Trainees have to find the icons and document them on a fundus scheme. • The complete retina surface has to be examined.

  8. Tier B: AnatomicalStructures Tier B offers a variety of patients of different age and ethnicity with healthy retinas. • Trainees get an overview of anatomical structures in the posterior eye segment. • Structures have to be found and classified in a classification scheme.

  9. Tier C: Basic FindingsandDiagnoses Tier C provides an introduction into findings and diagnoses. • Trainees examine patients with known pathologies such as AMD or diabetes. • The symptoms of the pathologies have to be found and classified.

  10. Tier D: Clinical Cases • Based on real patient cases, Tier D teaches advanced diagnostic skills: • Real patient history • Retinas modeled on the basis of real fundus images • Case-related additional diagnostics. • Multiple-choice questions regarding pathologies and possible therapies • Specification of findings and diagnoses • Real fundus images and videos

  11. ObjectiveandComparableEvaluation of Performance • The quality of each examination is evaluated objectively. Many different parameters are evaluated, for example: • Actual retina surface examined by the trainee with graphic presentation • Light exposure • Correct, wrong, or missing findings and diagnoses.

  12. The First Simulator forIndirectOphthalmoscopy! • Realistic Handling • Quality assurance through objective evaluation of the examination • Evidence-based and self-reliant learning • Large case database containing a wide range of clinically relevant pathologies • No risk to patients.
