Simulation‐based certification for cataract surgery

To evaluate the EyeSi™ simulator in regard to assessing competence in cataract surgery. The primary objective was to explore all simulator metrics to establish a proficiency‐based test with solid evidence. The secondary objective was to evaluate whether the skill assessment was specific to cataract surgery.
