Cataract Surgery Course

September 1 @ 9:00 am - September 4 @ 5:00 pm

MSICS Simulation Training Course Details:

In this course, you will learn the complete MSICS procedure as standardized by HelpMeSee. MSICS revolves around making and using a well-constructed tunnel to work inside the eye. The tunnel is used to remove the cataract and implant an IOL.

Along with simulation training, you will undergo a self-paced eLearning course to strengthen your understanding of key concepts prior to simulation training.

The course is divided into four modules, each focussing on a specific segment of the surgery.

Module A: Sclero-Corneal Tunnel Construction
Module B: Capsulorrhexis & Nucleus Delivery
Module C: Cortex Removal & IOL Implantation
Module D: Restoration of Physiological Conditions

Objectives:

By the end of the course, you will be able to:

Understand and recall the different concepts related to MSICS
Understand tissue and instrument interactions and depth perception
Identify visual and tactile cues
Develop the required skills to perform MSICS in a simulated environment

Outcome:

This course will equip you with the necessary skills to perform Manual Small Incision Cataract Surgery in a simulated environment, enabling a smooth transition to live surgery.

Phacoemulsification Simulation Training Course Details:

In this course, you will learn the complete Phaco procedure as standardized by HelpMeSee. This technique ultrasonically emulsifies the cataract and allows cataract removal through a small opening in the cornea. A foldable IOL is then implanted through the corneal incision.

Along with simulation training, you will undergo a self-paced eLearning course to strengthen your understanding of key concepts prior to simulation training.

The course is divided into five modules, each focusing on a specific segment of the surgery.

Module A: Phaco Incisions
Module B: Capsulorrhexis & Hydroprocedures
Module C: Lens Removal – Divide & Conquer or Stop & Chop or Direct Chop
Module D: Cortex Aspiration & IOL Implantation
Module E: Visco Wash & Wound Hydration

Objectives:

By the end of the course, you will be able to:

Understand and recall the different concepts related to Phaco
Understand tissue and instrument interactions and depth perception
Identify visual and tactile cues
Develop hand, eye, and foot coordination by using the foot pedal
Develop the required skills to perform Phaco in a simulated environment

Outcome:

This course will equip you with the necessary skills to perform Phaco in a simulated environment, enabling a smooth transition to live surgery.

Prerequisites:

You should be an ophthalmologist with or without previous surgical experience in Phaco and have the following characteristics:

Good hand-eye coordination
Normal stereopsis
Good spatial skills
Basic computer skills – knows how to navigate a laptop keyboard, touch pad, mouse

You will be required to complete an eLearning course and assessment prior to starting simulation-based training.
