Preparing for the Phacoemulsification Training Course

The first step in the phacoemulsification training course begins with Preparing for the Course
by Understanding the Surgical Environment.

First and foremost, essential equipment, such as the phaco machine, microscopes,
and monitors are introduced.
It is important to know how and what the machine is capable of and to familiarize how they integrate.
The rest of the lesson is usually a lecture on how to set up the machine,
the principles of phacoemulsification, the types of probes,
and the machine settings and parameters, which are important to know before setting
hands on the machine and the patient’s eye.

Phacoemulsification Training Course Curriculum

In the first section of the course, Trainers discuss one of the most important aspects
of phacoemulsification surgery, which is knowing and understanding the anatomy of the eye,
the different layers of the eye, which are the cornea, the sclera, the choroid, the retina, and the optic nerve.

Trainers explain how improper incisions made during cataract surgery can cut the major structures
of the eye, leading to severe complications such as retinal detachment.

During the training session is discussed the vitreous humor, its significance,
and how its removal with vitrectomy can provide much better visualization
of the posterior segment during vitreous surgery.
