Lin J, et al. - Researchers carried out a prospective study to test the effectiveness of eye model in improving the knowledge and confidence of the junior doctors in the removal of corneal foreign bodies (FBs). Between April and November 2016, a total of 73 junior doctors {median age was 26 years old (interquartile range [IQR] 25 to 29 years old)} partook in this investigation. Data reported that 82.2% (60/73) had no prior experience in corneal FBs removal. Findings suggested that the surrogate eye model is low-cost, fast and simple to reproduce. The learners expressed greater confidence in handling the removal of corneal FBs and the use of slit lamp after use. Teaching this technique through simulation with a recent focus on patient safety and quality is a safe way to bridge the gap between traditional didactic teaching and the clinical environment.
