Development status and future challenges of ocular surgical robot

Surgical robots have the advantages of good flexibility, high precision and stable operation, which is an important way to improve the safety and accuracy of ophthalmic surgical operations.Scholars have carried out preliminary explorations on the application of robots in the anterior and posterior segmental ocualr surgeries and completed the simulation and animal experiments.However, there are still some challenges for the ophthalmic surgical robots to enter the clinical application, including the lack of intelligent decision-making systems, the limited scope of ocular diseases involved in surgical robots, the small number of types of intelligent surgical tools, and the lack of high-precision navigation technologies.This article will systematically review the development status and future challenges of ocular surgical robots.
