The best patient education system for ophthalmologists. Start today and work more productively, save time in patient education and offer your services in the best possible way! 3D EYE MODEL Use your fingers to move the new 3D eye model on your iPad or use your fingers or a compatible pen to draw your comments directly on the 3D model. Choose different camera perspectives, cloud the lense with a simple tap and move an IOL in the capsular bag of the eye. Ideal for an individual patient education. VISION SIMULATOR Starting from the personal vision of the patient, you can show different correction procedures (IOL) and visual disturbances with the Vision Simulator. HALO&GLARE SIMULATOR With the new Halo & Glare simulator, you can simulate halo, glare and starburst around light sources at dawn / night. Inform your patients about possible side effects of premium lenses in a personal conversation. VISUAL FIELD DEFECT SIMULATOR With the new visual field defect simulator, visual field defects can be simulated more realistically for a better patient understanding. This facilitates patient education and helps you to emphasize the need for early detection. ANIMATIONS A wide variety of easy to understand 3D animations help you to explain complicated issues.

In Eye MG Max, a 3D eyeball model with TrueColor confocal fundus image, and all structures related to ophthalmology are provided in a user-friendly interface. In this application multiple views, along with transparency for viewing the structures passing through another model, free camera mode, annotated modes, customized zoomed views and videos related to any ophthalmic pathology is provided. Thus, providing a 3D atlas at the user’s fingertip for comprehensive learning. Free Mode: The user can explore the ‘3D View’ provided in the app, with Hide/Unhide option for various anatomical parts: - Skin - Skull - Meninges - Brainstem (BS) - Brain - Cranial Nerves (CNs) - Circle of Willis (CoW) - Brainstem Nucleus (BS Nuclei) - Optic Pathway (Optic Path) - Cerebral Venous System (CVS) - Eyeball (Eye) - Extraocular Muscles (EOM) Users can explore these structures separately from the main menu: - Eyeball - Optic Pathway - Brainstem Nucleus - Cranial Nerves - Cerebral Venous System - Circle of Willis - Skull - Supraorbital Fissure AR: AR is a view of the real, physical world in which the elements are enhanced by a computer-generated overlay. AR requires a real world entity that can be overlayed on. For example, the face of a person, or a particular design or QR code. Sometimes even just a plane such as the ceiling, floor or wall would be enough to get the computer generated overlay (augmented world) onto the real world. In Eye MG Max, we just make use of a plane recognition system to overlay ophthalmic concepts and anatomical 3d models over the real world that would help ophthalmic residents and neophytes to experience the real-time structures. Requirements for AR: - iPhone 11 / iPad 2nd Gen or later - iOS 13 / iPad OS or later Permissions: - Camera Permission for AR Other Features: Video Gallery: Videos related to various pathologies are given here.
