Abstract |
An IBM-compatible computer graphics software program has been developed which simulates pupillary function. A light pen, electronically interfaced with the computer, simulates a pen light and, when it is placed on the computer image of the pupil, causes pupillary constriction; when it is withdrawn, the pupils redilate. A variety of abnormal pupillary responses are depicted. Anatomical diagrams and questions concerning various simulated pupillary conditions further enhances the educational experience. Medical students, residents in ophthalmology and the neurosciences, optometrists, nurses, ophthalmic assistants, and other health care professionals can utilize this program to learn a wide range of pupillary abnormalities in an interactive environment. |
