Core Insights - The article discusses the advancements and upcoming events in the field of ophthalmic surgery robotics, particularly focusing on the ORYOM™ platform developed by ForSight Robotics, which aims to address the challenges in cataract surgery through automation and precision [2][18]. Group 1: Industry Context - There are over 600 million cataract patients globally, with only about 30 million surgeries performed annually, indicating a significant gap in treatment availability [3]. - The supply of ophthalmologists is declining, with an expected 12% decrease in the number of doctors by 2035, while demand is projected to increase by 24% [3]. Group 2: Technological Advancements - The ORYOM™ platform is the first AI-based ophthalmic surgical robot, designed specifically for eye surgery, featuring micro-robots, AI algorithms, and intraoperative imaging systems [7][10]. - The platform has demonstrated high precision in animal models, completing cataract surgeries with an average time of 277 seconds and low complication rates [7][8]. Group 3: Clinical Development - ForSight Robotics has received ISO 13485 certification and plans to initiate its first human clinical trial in 2025, focusing on the safety and preliminary effectiveness of the ORYOM™ platform [16]. - The trial is expected to include 10-30 patients and will assess key metrics such as capsular integrity and intraocular lens centration [16]. Group 4: Future Directions - The company aims to standardize surgical procedures by programming optimal surgical action sequences, potentially reducing reliance on surgeon skill and enhancing safety [17]. - The ORYOM™ platform is uniquely designed for ophthalmic procedures, differentiating itself from existing surgical robots in other fields, and may become the first to enter human trials in ophthalmic surgery [18].
