ABSTRACT

The indirect ophthalmoscope is a very necessary diagnostic and therapeutic tool, widely used by all ophthalmologists, as this contributes to the development of teaching and learning Ophthalmology in general and particularly the posterior segment of the eye. Our purpose was to present the interactive multimedia "Indirect Ophthalmoscope" for the development of professional skills in residents of the ophthalmology Service at the Central Military Hospital concerning the proper use of this diagnostic tool. The multimedia contains different headings related to eye exam, history, videos, simulators, positions and advantages of indirect ophthalmoscope. From the fulfillment of the actions set out in the guide produced for this purpose, the implementation of this tool will allow residents to prepare themselves and help to solve problems detected through the indirect ophthalmoscope when diagnosing and treating eye conditions that constitute a health problem in Cuba.
