Technical skills fade such as capsulorhexis difficulties were commonly perceived by trainee surgeons in addition to transient anxiety, reported in more than half of all surgeons following a hiatus as short as 8 weeks. Eyesi® simulation offers the potential to negate technical de-skilling. Few had formal return plans or awareness of RCOphth guidance. We believe there is scope for more specialised and targeted support for future returning cataract surgeons thereby optimising patient care.
