SPECIFICALLY, HELPMESEE SEEKS TO ELIMINATE CATARACT BLINDNESS WORLDWIDE BY VASTLY INCREASING THE NUMBER OF QUALIFIED CATARACT SPECIALISTS TO TREAT CATARACT BLINDNESS AND VISUAL IMPAIRMENT. TO ACCOMPLISH ITS MISSION, HELPMESEE HAS DEVELOPED A HIGHLY STRUCTURED TRAINING SYSTEM DEDICATED TO DELIVERING HIGH-QUALITY TRAINING IN MANUAL SMALL INCISION CATARACT SURGERY (MSICS). THIS TECHNIQUE WAS CHOSEN AS IT IS CONSIDERABLY LESS EXPENSIVE AND YET DELIVERS QUALITY OUTCOMES FOR ALL CATARACT TYPES PREVALENT IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD. WELL TRAINED CATARACT SPECIALISTS WILL BE ABLE TO PROVIDE LOW COST TREATMENT TO MILLIONS OF THOSE WHO ARE CATARACT BLIND OR VISUALLY IMPAIRED. THE PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES TO ACCOMPLISH THE EXEMPT PURPOSE OF HELPMESEE ARE: DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT AND DEPLOYMENT OF VIRTUAL REALITY EYE SURGERY SIMULATOR-BASED TRAINING SYSTEM AND; SUPPORT A WORLDWIDE NETWORK OF MSICS LEARNING CENTERS LOCATED IN THE AREAS OF GREATEST NEED. THE NEED FOR SCALABLE SOLUTIONS FOR CATARACT SURGICAL TRAINING GLOBALLY 100M PEOPLE ARE BLIND/VISUALLY IMPAIRED DUE TO CATARACT AND MOST LIVE-IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. OUT OF 193 COUNTRIES SURVEYED MOST DEVELOPING COUNTRIES HAVE A SHORTAGE OF WELL-TRAINED SURGEONS TO DELIVER CATARACT CARE. 23 COUNTRIES HAD <1 OPHTHALMOLOGIST/M POPULATION. IT TAKES 5-7 YEARS TO TRAIN ONE OPHTHALMOLOGIST. THIS GAP BETWEEN NEED AND AVAILABILITY OF SURGEONS WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE WITH POPULATION AND AGE. THE WORLD NEEDS A SCALABLE, SUSTAINABLE SOLUTION TO ELIMINATE THE CATARACT SURGICAL BACKLOG. IN NORMAL SURGICAL TRAINING ONE MENTOR TEACHES ONE TRAINEE AT A TIME. WITH SIMULATORS, FOUR SURGEONS ARE TRAINED BY ONE SIMULATOR EXPERT/OPHTHALMOLOGY SURGEON AT HELPMESEE. ALSO, BY INCREASING THE NUMBER OF SIMULATORS, INSTRUCTORS OR COURSES THAT CAN BE DELIVERED THERE ARE HUGE OPPORTUNITIES TO SCALE SURGICAL TRAINING LARGELY BECAUSE THERE IS NO DEPENDENCY ON HAVING PATIENTS. RAPID TRAINING CAN BE DELIVERED WITH NO PATIENT RISK OR BIO MEDICAL WASTE. IN THE CURRENT PANDEMIC WHERE SURGERIES ARE CURTAILED AND FEWER OPPORTUNITIES ARE AVAILABLE FOR SURGEONS, SIMULATOR-BASED TRAINING OFFERS A PARTIAL SOLUTION. QUALITY OF SURGERY IS ALSO A CHALLENGE IN MANY COUNTRIES. ABOUT 10% SURGERIES HAVE POOR VISUAL OUTCOMES. IN REGULAR TRAINING, NOVICE RESIDENTS PRACTICE ON A LIMITED NUMBER OF ANIMAL/HUMAN CADAVER EYES AND THEN COMPLETE MOST OF THE LEARNING ON LIVE PATIENTS. ON A VIRTUAL EYE SURGERY SIMULATOR, RESIDENT CAN PRACTICE ON INNUMERABLE SIMULATED EYES AND LEARN TO MANAGE RARE COMPLICATIONS UNTIL CONFIDENCE AND PROFICIENCY ARE ACHIEVED.
