CASES AND PATHOLOGIES

• Create a defined central patch with defined edges. This will allow lifting the membrane from the patch edges without creating an initial flap.
• Creating the initial flap of an ILM peel is a critical and difficult step.
• ILM COAT IS A DRY SCENARIO-DO NOT FILL WITH FLUID.

1. Apply a slightly larger drop of ILM COAT and spread to cover the entire colored area of retina. With no defined edge, the user must now create a flap close to the central region of the retina.
2. Go for steps 1 to 3.
3. Re-assemble the FUNDUS anterior segment.
4. Removing ILM COAT: Removing the entire membrane when performingrepeate peels is encouraged. Keeping the retina dry will provide better results when coating consecutively since the coating is sensitive to humidity. To remove any undesired coating that was not peeled, rub coating off with a wet cotton swab. Any diluted coat left may affect the peeling performance of the next coat. Use at least a second wet swab to ensure retina isclean (the cotton swab should come out white).
5. Dry with a cotton swab and air before re-applying new coating. Coat may not dry if model is wet or humid.

CHARACTERISTICS

1. Remove the ANTERIOR SEGMENTof your FUNDUS Model.
2. Remove the ILM COAT main cap and roll-on cap. Dip the tip of a cotton swab into the ILM COAT and apply a drop to the center of theretinal surface of your FUNDUS Model. Remember to close the ILM COAT Vial.
3. Spread ILM COAT drop with compressed air. Start gently spreading with a steady but slow flow in the center of the drop, and gradually increase intensity to spread to desired thicknes and extension. Keep drying until there is no more specular reflections from wet spots. Membrane will have a satin finish when dry.

1. DISASSEMBLY: Gently push the optical element (if needed) into the eye. Insert the legs of the assembly tool through the iris aperture and leverage the anterior segment out.
2. ASSEMBLY: Slide the anterior segment support ring under three muscle insertions and use the assembly tool tip to help it under the fourth muscle insertion. Press on all quadrants to make sure the support ring is properly seated and no gaps are visible.
3. Fill with vitreous substitute of choice such as egg white. Fillseal channel with dispersiveviscoelastic before assembling to create a better fluid seal.

Description

FUNDUS is an innovative model for posterior segment training simulation. It features a photo-realistic model of the central retina, a cristal clear optic (sold separately) and a flexible pars plana that allows surgical intervention.

Its modular design allows peelable coatings to be applied to the retina, adding vitreous substitutes and insertion of foreign bodies to enhance training scenarios amd maximizes fidelity while being cost effective. Its anterior segment can be replaced when necessary, while allowing reuse of the crystal clear optical element (sold separately) and detailed posterior segment.
