The 5-year results of the TVT Study provide further evidence that the role of tube shunts have appropriately been expanding beyond the surgical management of refractory glaucomas .The likelihood of more tube shunt surgery increases the overall number of complications .Meticulous surgical technique will help minimise complications.Intense wet lab training sessions under the supervision of a trainer serves to maximize learning and will ensure a smooth and safe transition to the operating room .This video demonstrates how a majority of intra operative steps involved in tube shunt surgery could be practiced and perfected at the wet lab.
