BALLATE NODALES, Edith María; PUIG PEREZ, Miguel Ángel; VALLE DELGADO, Dulce María and RANKIN BRAVO, Lídice. Computing applications in Ophtalmology residence. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 1999, vol.12, n.2, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3070.
The rise of many microsurgical techniques for cataract made the detailed study of all aspects leading to technique improvement necessary, based on computerized method. Thus, the Ocular Microsurgery Improvement Program called SIPMO was created in our service for calculating residual astigmatism and for the evolutin of aniseikonia in patients with implanted intraocular lens (IOL). These results were recorded in a database having possibilities of retrospective studies. This technique contributes to raise the technical-scientific quality of the residents in this field, to deepen their knowledge and increase their practical abilities and additionally, it serves to evaluate individual and collective results of our services by computarized methods. The program is at the disposal of any ophtalmologist or any teaching institution thay may wish to use it.
