Eyesi Direct Ophthalmoscope Simulator: Enhancing Fundus Examination Training
Introduction
Medical undergraduates often lack proper training in using direct ophthalmoscopes, leading to a shortage of basic ophthalmological skills among general practitioners worldwide. This study investigates the effectiveness of the Eyesi Direct Ophthalmoscope Simulator (Eyesi) as a modern tool for fundus examination training.
Methods
Undergraduates were randomly assigned to receive either Eyesi or traditional direct ophthalmoscope (TDO) training. After training, participants answered relevant questionnaires and exchanged training tools for further evaluation.
Results
Participants trained with Eyesi showed a significant increase in fundus structure recognition and self-confidence in examination compared to those trained with TDO. Additionally, the majority preferred Eyesi as a training tool and were open to introducing it in training programs.
Conclusion
Based on participant feedback, the Eyesi outperformed TDO in fundus observation, operational practice, and theoretical learning. It effectively equips undergraduates with fundus examination skills, potentially promoting the use of direct ophthalmoscopes in primary medical institutions.
