Eyesi Surgical provides an immersive, high-fidelity simulation of intraocular surgery. Trainees operate through a stereoscopic microscope view while using realistic surgical instruments in a virtual surgical field. The system replicates intraoperative constraints such as wound stability, viscoelastic behavior, red reflex changes, and tissue interaction, delivering a highly realistic surgical experience without risk to patients.
-
The simulator includes a modular, step-by-step curriculum designed to progressively build surgical proficiency. Training begins with fundamental microsurgical skills and advances to complete surgical procedures. Tasks are structured to match the trainee’s skill level, allowing gradual progression through increasingly complex scenarios. Online theoretical modules via VRmNet complement hands-on simulation training.
-
After each training module, the system provides detailed performance assessment, including metrics for instrument handling, surgical efficiency, tissue interaction, and microscope control. Comparative benchmarking allows trainees to evaluate their performance against peers, while educators can monitor progress across entire cohorts through the VRmNet platform.
-
The cataract curriculum includes simulation of key surgical steps such as capsulorhexis, hydrodissection, phacoemulsification, irrigation/aspiration, IOL insertion, and complication management. Training modules are designed to reinforce fine motor control, spatial awareness, and procedural accuracy.
-
The vitreoretinal configuration includes wide-angle optics for posterior segment surgery training. Modules cover procedures such as posterior hyaloid detachment, internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling, epiretinal membrane removal, and retinal detachment repair, enabling structured posterior segment surgical training.

VRmNet is a web-based learning and administration system supporting Eyesi simulators. It provides trainees with personalized dashboards, online course access, and performance tracking, while enabling educators to manage users, monitor progress, and analyze training outcomes remotely across networked simulators.
