Any tips on how to practice a capsulorhexis at home? I heard on tomato skin, or saran wrap?

Any other ways to practice at home besides a wet lab?

Thanks

There is a great little short video in one of the "Video Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery" DVDs. It is Volume XXII , issue 4. Basically you use a cellophane like wrapping paper and stretch it over silly putty. You flatten or dome the silly putty to simulate differing difficulties. It looks pretty neat.
