Intended for ST2 and ST3 trainees, this is the first of an annual cadaver workshop focusing on refreshing knowledge of relevant anatomy and practising surgical technique on the eye in a safe but realistic environment. At HYMS, we use a special 'lite embalming' technique which results in cadaveric tissues which are much more like real life. There is a big safety plus for surgeons and patients and a great advantage for our trainees in practising in this way before performing 'the real thing' on a live patient.
