With a patient model head, two lenses, and a head mounted stereo display, the Eyesi Indirect simulator mimics all features of a real binocular indirect ophthalmoscope. When trainees put on the ophthalmoscope hat, they see a 3D simulation of a patient. To examine the patient’s retina, the lens must be positioned correctly in front of the patient model head. The corresponding visualization of the eye is dynamically rendered in real time.

Eyesi Indirect provides both trainees and educators with an objective performance assessment. Immediate feedback after each case helps trainees to improve their skills systematically. Scored parameters include, for example, percentage of retina examined, light exposure, completeness of pathological signs found, and the accuracy of the diagnosis.

For trainees, the web based VRmNet dashboard offers access to their current training status and evaluation data. Furthermore, they find their personal findings library for recap of learning content. The VRmNet dashboard can be accessed online from any computer or mobile device.

Numerous studies have validated the training concepts of training simulators by Haag-Streit Simulation and have proven that beginners, residents, and experienced doctors benefit from simulator training.
