The Wet Lab has three surgery stations. All have height adjustable tables, operating stools and microscopes.
The two “wet” stations have X-Y microscopes (one Moller and one Zeiss) and both have Bausch & Lomb Millenium phaco machines.
The “dry” station is for suture practice only. The Zeiss microscope has foot pedal operated zoom and focus but no X-Y.
Trainers can observe via microscope side arms or video screens.
Currently surgery practice makes use of Royal College approved rubber “phaco” eyes and other simulated material. Future developments will allow the use of animal eyes.
We can accommodate trainees from other departments by arrangement. Usually this will require attendance of trainer or trainers from their own department, but we may be able to arrange training by our own medical staff. We have supporting materials and facilities for tutorials and lectures.
