I am currently struggling with phaco, and am considering other subspecialties of ophthalmology. I have an interest in retina but am fearful that I might have more difficulty with ppvs and buckles than phaco. I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could comment on the level of difficulty of retina surgeries in comparison to phaco. My hands don't shake but they get tense or heavy handed. Have you heard of individuals doing retina fellowships but struggling with the surgical components?
