Why Is the Quality of Eye Instruments Important for Ethical Ophthalmology?
As an ophthalmologist, you know that your credibility as a medical professional depends upon more than just your knowledge and skill set.

Biometry-Based Concentric Tubes Robot for Vitreoretinal Surgery
Abstract—Vitreoretinal surgery requires dexterous manoeu-vres of tiny surgical tools in the confined cavity of the human eye through incisions made on the sclera. The fulcrum effect stemming from these incisions limits the safely reachable intra-ocular workspace and may result in scleral stress and collision with the intraocular lens. This paper proposes a concentric tube robot for panretinal interventions without risking scleral or lens damage.
