Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the correlation of cataract surgical simulator and real-life surgical experience and its contribution to surgicaltraining.Materials and Methods: Sixteen doctors in our department were divided into three groups based on their surgical experience.After being familiarized with the device, the participants were evaluated while performing the navigation, forceps, bimanual practice,anti-tremor and capsulorhexis stages. The capsulorhexis stage was repeated five times. Participants were also assessed while performingcapsulorhexis again with their non-dominant hand. The influence of repetition and surgical experience on the recorded points wasevaluated. P values below 0.05 were considered statistically significant.Results: There was correlation between the participants’ surgical experience and their scores in the capsulorhexis module. Theirdominant hand was more successful than the non-dominant hand in capsulorhexis (p=0.004). Capsulorhexis scores increased withrepetition (p=0.001).Conclusion: Results achieved with the cataract surgery simulation device correlate with surgical experience. The increase inperformance upon repeated practice indicates that the simulator supports surgical training.
