Immersive photoreal new-age innovative gameful pedagogy for e-ophthalmology with 3D augmented reality

Abstract

Augmented reality (AR) has come a long way from a science-fiction concept to a science-based reality. AR is a view of the real, physical world in which the elements are enhanced by computer-generated inputs. AR is available on mobile handsets, which constitutes an essential e-learning platform. Today, AR is a real technology and not a science-fiction concept. The use of an e-ophthalmology platform with AR will pave the pathway for new-age gameful pedagogy. In this manuscript, we present a newly innovated AR program named “Eye MG AR” to simplify ophthalmic concept learning and to serve as a new-age immersive 3D pedagogical tool for gameful learning.
