Eyeball simulator for extraocular muscles

Learning about human eye movements broadens our comprehension of the visuomotor system and aids in the effective management of strabismus. One’s clinical practice is improved by a dynamic simulation of human eye movements using physical models of the extraocular muscles (EOMs). We use our eyeball mo...

Sumario:Learning about human eye movements broadens our comprehension of the visuomotor system and aids in the effective management of strabismus. One’s clinical practice is improved by a dynamic simulation of human eye movements using physical models of the extraocular muscles (EOMs). We use our eyeball model to teach the basics of strabismus to undergraduate students and ophthalmology residents. In Listing’s plane, extraocular movements of each muscle and the angle demonstration are being used to familiarize students with their knowledge. The degree of the residents’ understanding of strabismus is significantly influenced by the eyeball strabismus simulator. This model is an inexpensive, Do It Yourself (DIY) model that is simple to build.
