q2 i? In Deuchler et al.'s pre-test/post-test study, learning was observed with EyeSi simulator training but was higher when students also trained on a theory-based online platform. → Dutt Deepaysh DCS 2025

Dutt Deepaysh DCS 2025¶

Dutt Deepaysh DCS, Hohnen Harry, Kulshrestha Subham, Razavi Hessom. (2025). Simulation models in direct ophthalmoscopy education: a systematic review. Canadian Medical Education Journal. https://doi.org/10.36834/cmej.79989

q2 · i? · review · r3

Pre-test/post-test study of 86 medical students reviewed within the systematic review, comparing EyeSi-only training with EyeSi plus EyeSiNet online platform. The review reports that "learning is observed with simulator training, but is higher if students trained on both a simulator and theory based online platform."

"Deuchler et al.39 conducted a pre-test and post-test on students after training with EyeSi Direct or with a combination of EyeSi direct and EyeSiNet for direct and indirect ophthalmoscopy and found that learning is observed with simulator training, but is higher if students trained on both a simulator and theory based online platform."
