SIVIHA: Eye Disease Simulation Glasses
SIVIHA: Eye Disease Simulation Glasses
This document provides instructions for using a set of glasses designed to simulate seven different ocular pathologies. These glasses are crafted by an optician with expertise in the field, aiming to replicate symptoms of advanced stages of these diseases.
Specifications and Usage Instructions
The glasses simulate the following conditions: cataract, retinal detachment, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), retinitis pigmentosa, and homonymous lateral hemianopsia (HLH). Users are advised to avoid touching the lenses and to store the glasses in their case after use. Cleaning should be done with a soft, dry, antistatic cloth, and the glasses should not come into contact with water or other liquids.
Pathology Descriptions
- Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD): A chronic degenerative disease affecting the central retina, leading to progressive central vision loss while usually preserving peripheral vision.
- Glaucoma: A serious condition often associated with high eye pressure, causing optic nerve damage and potential total vision loss.
- Retinitis Pigmentosa: Begins with peripheral retina damage, leading to night vision loss and progressive narrowing of the visual field, potentially resulting in complete blindness.
- Diabetic Retinopathy: A complication of diabetes causing retinal damage, which can accelerate other eye diseases and lead to blindness without treatment.
- Cataract: Characterized by lens opacity, affecting vision clarity.
- Unilateral Retinal Detachment: A rare condition where the retina separates from the eyeball, requiring urgent treatment to prevent blindness.
- Homonymous Lateral Hemianopsia (HLH): A visual disorder affecting the same visual field in both eyes, often due to nerve damage from tumors, vascular issues, or trauma, and can result from a stroke.
Conclusion
The document emphasizes the importance of proper handling and maintenance of the simulation glasses to ensure their longevity and effectiveness in simulating ocular pathologies.

Instructions for use Simulation of Ocular Pathologies Homonymous lateral hemianopsia (HLH): Hemianopsia in which the loss of visual field is on the side opposite the lesion that caused it. A lesion on the right therefore results in an HLH on the left. It is said to be homonymous because the lost visual field is, in relation to the patient, on the same side for both eyes. We advise you not to put your fingers on the glasses and to store the glasses in their case after use. . You can clean the glasses with a soft, dry and antistatic cloth specially designed for this purpose. Do not put the glasses...

Instructions for use Simulation of Ocular Pathologies ❖ AMD Age-related macular degeneration is a chronic degenerative disease of the retina that begins after the age of 50. It selectively affects the macular region, ie the central area of the retina, causing progressive loss of central vision. It usually leaves peripheral or side vision intact . ❖ GLAUCOMA Glaucoma is a serious eye disease that is usually accompanied by excessive eye pressure. It causes a slow destruction of the optic nerve, which can lead to total loss of sight. More than a million people would be affected in France. ❖ Retinitis...

Instructions for use Simulation of Ocular Pathologies ❖ UNILATERAL RETINAL DETACHMENT Retinal detachment is a rare eye disease that is manifested by separation of the retina from the outer membranes of the eyeball with which it normally comes into contact. It can lead to blindness if not treated quickly (relative ophthalmological emergency). This disease mainly affects people aged 45 to 60, nearsighted people and diabetics. ❖ Homonymous lateral hemianopsi (HLH) Hemianopsia is a visual disorder that affects a visual hemifield, that is to say only one half of the visual field of the eye. It can...
