Purpose Retina surgery is an increasingly performed procedure for the treatment of a wide spectrum of retinal pathologies. Methods Yet, as most micro‐surgical techniques, it requires long training periods before being mastered. To properly answer requests from clinicians for highly realistic training on one hand, and new requirements from accreditation or recertification from surgical societies on the other hand, we propose to develop a high‐fidelity training system for retinal surgery. Results This simulator will be built upon our strong scientific expertise in the field of real‐time simulation, and a success story for technology transfer in the field of cataract surgery simulation. Conclusions Members of the consortium have a long expertise in the development of prototypes, as well as collaboration with clinical partners. The simulation system that we propose to develop will be based on the Open Source simulation platform SOFA , and will rely on expertise from our partners to ensure clinical and industrial relevance.
