A practical continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis self-training system.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To describe a practical, self-assembled continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC) self-training system to facilitate resident self-training and shorten the CCC learning curve.

Methods

This was a prospective experimental study that included a total of 600 capsulorhexis cases. A device for CCC practice was self-assembled and used for training and testing. Based on capsulorhexis manipulation experience, three main groups of residents (A, capsulorhexis experience with <50 cases; B, capsulorhexis experience with 400-500 cases; and C, capsulorhexis experience with >1000 cases) were created. Furthermore, based on different capsulorhexis conditions, each main group was divided into four subgroups (1, CCC without an anterior chamber cover and capsulorhexis marker; 2, CCC wit
