A simulated eye surgical model with a bubble management system that facilitates simulation and training of ophthalmic surgical procedures, such as laser-based glaucoma treatment. The simulated eye could also be used for marketing, startup procedures, go/no-go tests, etc. The eye model has a lower core, a corneal dome positioned above the lower core, and an anterior chamber under the corneal dome defining a floor. A bubble reservoir under the anterior chamber defined by the lower core has a capture tube opening to the anterior chamber. A bubble chamber open to the capture tube rises up above the capture tube lower end to an upper portion sealed off from the anterior chamber. The eye model may be rotated 360° about a horizontal axis to transfer bubbles from the anterior chamber to the bubble chamber. An alternative flow-through eye model provides active flushing of bubbles and particulate.
