Eyetube is an enormously valuable resource that is arguably more relevant to eye surgeons than any scientific paper. Many of the techniques elucidated with beautiful videos on Eyetube can be used every day to benefit our patients.
ARTHUR B. CUMMINGS, MB ChB, FCS(SA), MMed(Ophth), FRCS(Edin)
Eyetube is an incredible resource that is well cataloged and easily searchable. Any surgeon encountering a situation in which surgical guidance is required can search Eyetube and will likely come up with a helpful video from a colleague.

As a resident, I filled any gaps in my schedule by spending time in the operating room, watching my mentors do surgery. Observing the surgical techniques in action was far more useful to me than looking at static diagrams in textbooks.
This aspect of my education also extended outside the operating room, when I was able to borrow videotapes of the Video Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery from Robert H. Osher, MD. Fast-forward to the present, where I have thousands of eye surgical videos available to me instantly on my computer, tablet, and even phone.
ERIC D. DONNENFELD, MD
Eyetube has been a driving force behind improving surgical techniques and educating ophthalmologists on new technologies. Eyetube has become a loyal friend of the anterior segment surgeon, and watching the videos available on this site makes me a more confident surgeon.
A. JOHN KANELLOPOULOS, MD
Eyetube is a dream come true. The ability to have immediate access to didactic videos on new techniques and complications management, even in the operating room, is indispensible to me and to ophthalmologists worldwide.
ERIK L. MERTENS, MD, FEBOphth
Eyetube has helped change ophthalmic education by bringing together and categorizing surgical videos submitted by excellent surgeons around the globe. Watching and analyzing surgical videos affords the viewer surgical tips and tricks that could never be learned by reading scientific peer-reviewed articles or handbooks.
KHIUN F. TJIA, MD
I always refer residents and colleagues to Eyetube, as it is one of the best educational resources to learn special techniques and how to manage complicated situations. I have received great feedback and thankful comments for referring my colleagues to Eyetube.
