Abstract
Video recording in ophthalmic surgery has immense potential to drive quality improvement in patient care, ophthalmology training, and research. Not only do surgical videos permit introspective and critical analyses of surgical technique, they also allow for objective assessment, allow for more informative audits, and are an invaluable medium for surgical education. Unfortunately, medical-grade video recording equipment is often costly. Various novel methods of video recording that utilize commercially available products offer adequate alternatives. Certain ethical and legal issues also need to be considered before the commencement of video recording in the operating room to protect both the patient and surgeon. We review the current applications and methods of video recording in ophthalmic surgery described in the literature, as well as the potential ethical and legal issues surrounding video recording.
