Area of Science:

Ophthalmology
Medical Education
Surgical Simulation Technology

Background:

Access to surgical simulation training is crucial for ophthalmology residents.
Existing disparities in healthcare education resources may impact training quality and equity.
EyeSi is a widely used surgical simulator in ophthalmology residency programs.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate regional disparities in access to EyeSi surgical simulation training among U.S. ophthalmology residency programs.
To identify demographic factors associated with unequal access to this training technology.
To understand the relationship between EyeSi access and residency program rankings.

Main Methods:

Analysis of EyeSi sales data from 2021.
Comparison of demographic metrics from U.S. Census Bureau and PolicyMap.
Statistical analysis (Mann-Whitney U test, Fisher's exact test) of demographic data, VA affiliation, and Doximity rankings.

Main Results:

The Western U.S. had significantly lower EyeSi simulator density compared to other regions.
Northeastern U.S. counties with EyeSi access had lower populations of Black, Hispanic, and Native American residents.
Programs with EyeSi access had higher Doximity rankings than those without.

Conclusions:

Significant regional disparities in EyeSi simulation training access were identified in the U.S.
Unequal access may disproportionately impact minority populations.
EyeSi simulator access correlates with higher residency program rankings, irrespective of VA affiliation.
