Development of 3D Printed Ophthalmic Tissue for Surgical Training

Abstract

The main focus of this effort is to develop a platform of 3D printed tissues with intrinsic motion tracking for application in ophthalmic surgical training programs utilizing three state-of-the-art construction methods: electrospinning, 3D bioprinting and BioLP laser induced cell and particle transfer. The proposed simulation training system would combine the strengths of both mechanical and virtual models: a mechanical tissue with a three-dimensional nano- and micro-structure built to the specific known parameters of human tissues with embedded sensors to track tissue manipulation and localized stress and strain during procedures.
