The simulator platform for the implant insertion procedure (left picture) approximates a setup in which the user sits in an OR environment and performs surgery on the virtual patient from a frontal position. Only about one quadrant of the virtual patient’s head is actually realized as a physical model, roughly modeling the part from the brow ridge to the top, which is necessary as a hand rest for the user. The simulator platform for the refill-exchange procedure (right picture) enables the user to stand next to the virtual patient who is positioned sitting in an inclined ophthalmic chair
