The goal of this project is to create a model of the human eye that can mimic common ailments and train doctors how to overcome conditions that make an eye examination difficult. Ultimately, students will be able to use this device to practice on, and instructors will be able to determine whether or not they are doing it correctly.
A prototype has been constructed so Reports and Presentations are not posted due to confidentiality issues.
