Surgical Training and Simulation Market Trends

Due to recent advances in augmented and virtual reality in healthcare, virtual surgery training is a quickly expanding sector within the broader field of healthcare simulation.

For instance, in April 2022, Alcon the global leader in eye care reinforced its longstanding commitment to surgeon training and education with the Alcon Fidelis virtual reality (VR) ophthalmic surgical simulator, a portable VR tool for cataract surgeons-in-training. As part of the Alcon experience academy, the VR simulator offers a high-fidelity, virtual operating room environment with haptic feedback to simulate the look and feel of cataract surgery. The simulator can be used from any location around the world with the ability to invite others to join virtual instruction and training sessions.

Similarly, few of the key players in the market that provide VR surgery training programs include FundamentalVR, Osso VR, PrecisionOS, and various others. Thus, the growing adoption of virtual reality along with availability of players in the market is expected to increase the demand for surgical simulators, thereby augmenting the market growth.
