Lab news and scientific insights

Explore recent research publications, laboratory announcements, and perspectives on the future of surgical robotics, artificial intelligence, and clinical education in ophthalmology from our Montreal team.

Advancing robotic precision in vitreoretinal surgery

Our engineering and clinical researchers have published new benchmark results evaluating tremor cancellation and micro-force feedback algorithms in simulated ocular procedures. This milestone bridges the gap between robotic dexterity and delicate human tissue interaction, opening new avenues for submillimetre precision in complex interventions. Discover our ongoing collaborative studies in Research & Services.

Real-time AI diagnostics in surgical simulation

Integrating computer vision into training environments allows residents to receive immediate, objective metric evaluations during mock surgeries. Our latest pre-print demonstrates how deep learning models quantify surgical competence and error rates across diverse procedural scenarios.
