SAN FRANCISCO — Robotic-assisted or fully robotic retinal surgery could improve patient outcomes by mitigating human limitations, according to a speaker here.
“Compared to traditional surgery, robotic surgery provides some super-human dexterity and improved visual feedback,” Jean-Pierre Hubschman, MD, said at Retina Subspecialty Day at the American Academy of Ophthalmology annual meeting. “As we all know the human body presents some limited performances and during traditional eye surgery we still rely on limited feedback, limited spatial resolution and depth perception.”
