The Yamane technique wet lab aims to provide ophthalmic surgeons with practical, hands-on experience in performing the Yamane technique for scleral fixation of intraocular lenses (IOLs). This advanced procedure is designed for cases where standard capsular support for IOL placement is absent, such as in aphakic eyes without sufficient capsular support. The wet lab focuses on teaching participants the critical steps of the Yamane technique, including creating scleral tunnels, externalizing the haptics of the IOL, and ensuring stable fixation without sutures. Participants will gain familiarity with the specialized instruments and techniques required, improving their ability to handle complex cases in clinical settings. Additionally, the wet lab aims to enhance the participants' understanding of the anatomical and biomechanical principles underlying the Yamane technique. Through direct practice and expert guidance, surgeons will learn to manage potential complications and refine their skills in manipulating delicate ocular tissues. The objective is to increase the surgeons' confidence and proficiency in performing this innovative technique, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes. The wet lab provides a controlled environment for learning and perfecting these skills, ensuring that participants can translate their training into successful surgical practices.
