EyeSpy Ophthalmic Education
A case-first study hub for learners building confidence in eye exams, diagnoses, surgical reasoning, and visual pattern recognition.
Case format
History -> exam -> image findings -> differential -> management
Clinical cases
Practice diagnostic reasoning with visual prompts.
Surgical skills
Review core concepts before the OR or wet lab.
Ophtho essentials

Open guidelinesFeatured case workflow
A repeatable way to practice ophthalmic reasoning.
Each case is designed to help learners slow down, notice key findings, and connect bedside observations to differential diagnosis and management.
Open the case study library- Start with the story.Age, symptoms, timeline, and risk factors.
- Read the eye exam.Visual acuity, pupils, pressure, motility, slit lamp, and fundus.
- Interpret the image.Identify the decisive findings and misleading distractors.
- Commit to a plan.Differential, next test, treatment, and follow-up.
Visual learning
Make ophthalmology easier to see, remember, and teach.
