Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Silicon oil removal 3D visualization

Device: GlasScope Surgical Microscope
3D visualization of the poterior chamber for silicon oil removal

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Field of view of GlasScope surgical microscope [Up to 3 days after surgery]

  2. Depth of field of GlasScope surgical microscope [Up to 3 days after surgery]

  3. 3D perception of GlasScope surgical microscope [Up to 3 days after surgery]

    3D perception of GlasScope surgical microscope is assessed by the surgeon ability to perform surgical gentle procedures using the surgical tools on the eye tissues - both inner and posterior parts of the eye.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Surgeon fatigue and neck strain (questionnaire) [Up to 7 days after surgery]

    Questioning the surgeons after surgery on the pain and stress during the use of Glasscope causing decreased performance/lack of concentration/fatigue, the complexity on keeping the eye-piece image in the surgeon sight, how the instrument prevents the surgeon situation awareness in the operating room, the stress and fatigue on the surgeon eyes for long duration of observation in the image

Eligibility Criteria

Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study:
18 Years and Older
Sexes Eligible for Study:
All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Yes
Inclusion Criteria:
  • Patients older than 18.
