    This paper synthesizes recent advances of technologies in ophthalmology education. Advancements in three-dimensional technology are revolutionizing ophthalmology education by enhancing the visualization, understanding, and retention of complex anatomical and pathological concepts. In addition to physical models, artificial intelligence and virtual reality are emerging as significant tools. A systematic search of PubMed was carried out, with a search date from inception to 01/05/2024. A total of 6686 articles were screened, of which 6470 were excluded following abstract review. After reading the remaining 216 articles in full, a further 186 were excluded. A total of 30 original articles were included in the review. This review underscores the transformative impact of novel technology in ophthalmology education, offering innovative solutions to enhance learning, surgical training, and diagnostic skills. Further research and development in this field hold promise for continued improvements in ophthalmology education and practice.

    Keywords: three-dimensional, artificial intelligence, virtual reality, Ophthalmology, Education
