VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System requires an EyeSi Surgical Simulator to provide our ophthalmology residents the ability to learn the essential steps of cataract surgery.  This is a key step in preparing trainees before performing real live surgery in a patient.     The challenge with the current crisis created by the COVID-19 pandemic poses a scenario of a longer interruption of service and surgeries.  Also, the new guidelines for the AGCME accreditation requirements now mandate to have a formal wet-lab or surgical simulator as part of the resident training.  As of today, 80% of the Ophthalmology Residency Programs own a simulator.  36 of all the EyeSi simulators are located at a Veterans Administration Hospital Facility.   Within VSN 8, Gainesville VAMC, VA SimLearn VA National Training Center Orlando, Orlando VAMC and Miami VAMC already have a simulator to assist in resident training.   Also, there are peer review studies that validate the impact in quality of care by improving phacoemulsification surgery skills along with reductions in complications.   Due to these reasons, we believe acquiring an EyeSi will improve the quality and safety of care delivered to our veterans while improving our capability of training residents. 

The scope of this purchase order is to provide Ann Arbor VAMC with the EYESI Surgical System, for delivery to 2215 Fuller Rd Ann Arbor VAMC location. Contractors shall furnish the simulator and provide training to the VA Ophthalmology Attending Staff and Residents.
