Abstract

This work shows the initial results obtained in the development of a cataract surgery simulator for education and medical training. A 3D human eye has been developed with haptic feedback and the necessary surgical equipment to carry out the cataract surgery. The developed system provides the students and surgeons a tool of interactive learning that can be used for the anatomy study and physiology of the eye, diagnoses training or planning of ocular surgery.
