Futuristic headset to help surgeons see during eye surgery
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests whether a futuristic headset that projects digital information can help surgeons see better during eye surgery. You may be able to participate if you are having a standard eye procedure and have no other eye problems that could make surgery riskier.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You must be having a planned eye surgery (like cataract, retina, or other eye surgery) at a participating site.
- You must be able and willing to give written informed consent.
- You cannot have had previous eye surgery.
- You cannot have corneal scarring, cloudiness, swelling, or an active eye infection.
- Your surgeon must agree that there is no extra risk from using the device during your surgery.

This study tests whether using virtual reality (a headset showing calming scenes) during cataract surgery can help reduce stress and anxiety. It may help you feel more relaxed during the procedure.
This study tests whether using the Apple Vision Pro virtual reality headset as a monitor during medical procedures is safe and effective. It may help doctors see better during procedures, but you need to meet specific vision and health requirements.
This trial tests whether a special eye scan (OCT) can help guide eye surgery during the operation. It may improve how surgeons see and target the exact eye structures they need to treat.
This study tests whether wearing an Apple Vision Pro headset during lung surgery helps doctors see your blood vessels more clearly, which may make the surgery safer and more precise. It's for people having surgery to remove a lung nodule or early-stage lung cancer.
This study tests a robotic system to assist eye surgery for certain retina and vitreous conditions, such as bleeding in the eye or a wrinkle on the macula. It aims to see if the robot can safely help improve vision.
This study tests a new device to capture data from your eyes. It helps researchers learn how well the device works for different people.
