Abstract

The article discusses the use of virtual reality (VR) simulators for many graduate medical education (GME) programs. It states that the GME programs had accessed to virtual eye surgery training with the systematic analysis of simulation training outcomes. It also notes that the simulation-based course requires construct validation by comparing surgical performance on the simulator between novices and ophthalmologists.
