Lemon and Rod Model: An Easy Method to Teach Movements and Axes of Eyeball
Dr. Saju Binu Cherian
Abstract :
Understanding the eye movements and various axes of eyeball is very important for a medical undergraduate to know the actions of extraocular muscles and testing the integrity of nerves supplying the muscles. But at the same time, it is very demanding for the teacher to make them understand and also give a correct concept regarding the movements even in a small group session such as demonstration .The different axes passing through the equator cannot be demonstrated while using a specimen or a plastic model. Also the eyeball cannot be rotated with all its axes. Active learning leads to enhanced learning. Engagement of the student is a key element making active learning activities work. Hence to help the students understand this concept, we have devised a cost effective and simple model using a lemon and rod to illustrate the various movements of eyeball.
