摘要：Authors' reply Lucas Holderegger Ricci,¹ Caroline Amaral Ferraz² ¹Department of Ophthalmology, School of Medicine, Laureate International Universities, São Paulo, Brazil; ²Department of Ophthalmology, Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP), São Paulo, Brazil We are delighted to see that our review on ophthalmoscopy simulation prompted a new discussion about the need for practice on real patients. As presented in our review, simulated training should be implemented with criteria as it can override patient safety protocols and individual comfort. Further, ophthalmoscopy remains an individual exam, since it is difficult for an outsider to evaluate examiner’s techniques, field position, and correct anatomic identification. Although we mention new devices that allow simultaneous external evaluation, these seem to be not yet widely available. Read the original paper by Ricci and Ferraz
