Short term Phaco Training review@ Nethradhama Super Specialty Eye Hospital, Bengaluru

• Duration - 1 month 

• Starting 2-3 SICS will be given to assess our skills, based on that, you progress to Phaco. 

• If well versed with SICS, then 30-35 phaco cases can be done in 1 month duration. 

• They provide you stay in an apartment but drawback is, it is far away from the centre.

• In a week Monday and Saturday are for observation, rest 4 days are for surgical training. 

• They even make you practice on wax eyeballs. 

• Trainers are all skilled and do their job very well. 

• In the beginning, they make you do phaco through tunnel incision and teach you divide and conquer and later chop and stop in the end. You may get few cases with clear corneal incision towards the end.

• Direct chop they will brief you about it theoretically .

• Fees something between 1-1.5 lacs
