EYESi Ophthalmoscope – A Simulator for Indirect Ophthalmoscopic Examinations
2009We present a training simulator for indirect ophthalmoscopy. An optical tracking system is used to reconstruct the position of a lens mockup and a model of the patient's face. Refraction and illumination are computed in real-time and displayed on a head-mounted display using augmented reality.
