1. Simultaneous training of condition and visual cognition on the  treadmill

Many sports require excellent spatial vision.

c-Digital Vision Trainer (R) is an innovative patented system. It improves spatial vision in terms of depth resolution and recognition speed.

What does the c-Digital Vision Trainer consist of?

The system consists of a PC with internet connection, a special 3D monitor, polarization glasses and a hand-held controller.

How is it used in the gym?

The c-Digital Vision Trainer can be used in conjunction with the treadmill or independently. Instead of watching TV, the interactive visual training takes place using a special monitor directly in front of the treadmill. The interaction takes place by means of a hand-held controller. The training consists of 3 sessions. One session lasts about 5 minutes.

Is there an analysis of the data?

The result data of the individual session and the entire training course are analysed and are available to the user. If desired, a detailed analysis will be carried out by an ophthalmologist (at the user’s expense).

Previous experience?

The training effect of the c-Digital Vision Trainer has already been scientifically investigated by tennis professionals and goalkeepers. A significant improvement in depth resolution and recognition speed has been demonstrated. The effect lasted at least 6 months.

Mobile Tele-Ophthalmic Consultation Service for Company Based Healthcare Programs, Medical Clinics, Neurological Clinics or Emergency Units

• You are a medical professional organizing a company based healthcare program  or a medical doctor in a medical or neurological clinic. You want to empower your instititution with ophthalmic expertise.
• You need access to the MOBILE Tele-Ophthalmic Consultation Service performing telemedical examinations of the eye and visual functions in patients with suspected arterial hypertension, diabetes, or neurological diseases.
• The MOBILE Tele-Ophthalmic Consultation Service serves as a mobile consultant in Company Based Healthcare Programs, and also in institutions without ophthalmic expertise. Visual function , retinal vasculature, and  optic nerve head morphology were documented by mobile devices and afterwards telemedically evaluated  by an experienced eye doctor within hours.
• The retinal vasculature, the retinal nerve fiber layer, the macular retinal ganglion cells are ideal structures for visualizing early processes of vascular remodeling, diabetic edema, neurodegeneration, neuroprotection and neurorepair.
• Impairment of retinal vessels and capillaries, axonal and neuronal degeneration are important features of arterial hypertension, diabetes, multiple neurologic disorders affecting the anterior visual pathway.
• Since the retinal vasculature, the retinal ganglion cells,  and the non-myelinated axons are perfect visible, the retina is an ideal structure for visualizing the processes of vascular remodeling, edema, neurodegeneration, neuroprotection and even neuro-repair. No other central nervous system tract has this unique  arrangement.
• Thus, mobile imaging of the retina and optic nerve by Optical Coherence Tomography OCT provides high-resolution reconstructions of retinal  anatomy in a rapid and reproducible fashion and permits objective analysis of the retinal vasculature, as well as ganglion cells and other neurons  in the macula.
