Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Simulation
  • Medical Education

Background:

  • Virtual reality (VR) simulators are increasingly used in surgical training.
  • The eyesi surgical simulator offers a platform for vitreoretinal surgery training.
  • Assessing the validity of VR simulators as objective assessment tools is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the validity of the eyesi surgical simulator as an assessment tool.
  • To assess its utility within a virtual reality vitreoretinal training program.

Main Methods:

  • A virtual vitreoretinal training program was developed on the eyesi simulator.
  • Six modules were designed: navigation, forceps, bimanual, laser, posterior hyaloid, and ILM peeling.
  • The program was completed by medical students, ophthalmology residents, and vitreoretinal surgeons.

Main Results:

  • Vitreoretinal surgeons achieved significantly higher overall scores compared to residents and students.
  • Significant differences were observed in four modules: navigation, bimanual, posterior hyaloid, and ILM peeling.
  • No significant differences were found between groups in forceps or laser coagulation modules.

Conclusions:

  • The developed eyesi simulator training program demonstrates validity as an assessment tool.
  • It is effective for overall performance and specific vitreoretinal surgical skills.
  • This program holds potential as a valuable training resource for future vitreoretinal surgeons.
