Autonomous Needle Navigation in Retinal Microsurgery: Evaluation in ex vivo Porcine Eyes [PDF]

, 2023
Important challenges in retinal microsurgery include prolonged operating time, inadequate force feedback, and poor depth perception due to a constrained top-down view of the surgery. The introduction of robot-assisted technology could potentially deal with such challenges and improve the surgeon's performance.
