About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a new 3D-printed eyeball movement simulator improves medical education compared to traditional teaching methods. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does using the 3D simulator help medical students better understand eye anatomy and muscle function compared to standard lectures and textbooks?

How do students rate the usability and effectiveness of this new teaching tool?

Researchers will compare two groups of medical students:

One group will learn using the 3D simulator

The other group will receive standard teaching methods

Participants will:

1. Complete a pre-test to assess their baseline knowledge 2. Attend training sessions using either the 3D simulator or standard methods 3. Take a post-test to measure learning improvement 4. Provide feedback about their learning experience 5. Take a post-intervention exam and satisfaction survey 6. Participate in focus groups about their learning experience

The study will help determine if interactive 3D models can enhance medical education about eye movements.
