The Oftalmo University
Cataract Surgery Training Program
Following our experience with hundreds of eye surgeons successfully trained we have designed a tailored path for the ophthalmologist:
Phase I: Online theoretical fundamentals
Your mentored starting point. You’ll master surgical concepts, techniques, instruments, and phaco settings through structured, interactive online modules designed for active learning. A personal mentor guides you as you build the essential knowledge required to perform confidently in Phase II.
Phase II: Hands on training with Simulation & Wet/Dry Lab
You advance from theory to controlled practice.
You work on the most advanced Haag-Streit EyeSi simulators, giving you an immersive environment to build skills for basic and complex cases.
You also train step by step with high-fidelity Bioniko artificial eyes, modern microscopes, and the latest phaco systems.
This phase accelerates your learning, strengthens safety through evidence-based practice, and prepares you to operate confidently with cutting-edge technology.
Our goal is to support you step by step so that you can perform cataract surgeries with complete confidence and safety—no matter what stage you’re currently at. That is why we take advantage of all the means available so you can get the most comprehensive training worldwide.
Wet/Dry Lab: Our Training Centers are equipped with the best quality of artificial eyes (Bioniko Models) and latest technology in: Microscopes, Phaco Machines, consumables & IOLs.
Training with Surgery Simulation: Providing an immersive experience that is increasingly becoming the optimal method for acquiring skills in both basic and complex scenarios we have the best simulators with the latest software
upgrades: Haag-Streit EyeSi ® Simulators.
Through this phase, you will save time with our efficient methodology designed to optimize your learning process, ensure safety with evidence-based training for the best surgical outcomes, and benefit from an innovative approach that leverages cutting-edge technology and simulation methods.
Phase III: Mentored Surgeries with real patients
After Simulation and lab training, you progress to real patients. Close mentor support during your first cases ensures safe, steady growth.
Completing 20 to 40 supervised surgeries gives you the confidence and competence to operate independently.
In our comprehensive cataract program, we encompass all available training options and bundle them with our proven success methodology, which also includes psychological training, nutritional guidelines, and mental focus strategies.
