Study in an interactive and practical way and learn about the new scientific evidence in the surgical approach to pathologies of the Anophthalmic Cavity"

This Postgraduate certificate is framed in the important results obtained recently with periocular surgery. Advances in treatments such as enucleation or synthetic ocular implants have produced a transformation in the discipline, providing the physician with new techniques and treatments to recover the function of the eye and its adjoining structures. As this is a field in continuous evolution and expansion, the specialist in this branch of ophthalmology must be continually updating his knowledge and implementing the latest techniques in his practice.

In order to facilitate this task, TECH and its team of experts in Oculoplastic Surgery, have developed this complete 150-hour program that will give the student access to a large amount of virtual content on the new scientific evidence of periocular surgery, from reconstructive surgery to the externalization of orbital content, among others. This is a comprehensive degree adapted to the latest evidence in this field of medicine, with which the graduate will be able to get up to date in less than two months, acquiring a deep and quality knowledge about this subspecialty.

The program aims for the student to acquire practical skills to treat the different types of patients that may present this particular condition, including its first signs in the pediatric age.

In this sense, the physician is expected to deepen in the handling of surgical and organic materials (autologous dermograft material) for the corresponding protocols. This will be done with the help of an innovative interactive video system developed by renowned experts. This Postgraduate certificate in Anophthalmic Cavity contains the most complete and updated scientific program in the market.
