Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Education
  • Medical Simulation

Context:

  • Pterygium surgery is a common ophthalmic procedure with inherent risks.
  • Traditional training methods may benefit from supplementary tools.
  • Simulation offers a safe environment for skill acquisition.

Purpose:

  • To assess the efficacy of procedural simulation in training ophthalmology residents for pterygium surgery.
  • To evaluate the impact of simulation on surgical knowledge and performance.

Summary:

  • Eight residents participated in three simulation workshops.
  • Pre- and post-training assessments revealed significant improvements in knowledge scores (3/5 to 4.1/5).
  • Performance scores also showed significant enhancement, alongside high learner satisfaction (13.87/16).
