ARAS Robot (III), Revolutionizing Ophthalmology Education at Farabi Hospital

The Translational Ophthalmology Research Center at Tehran University of Medical Sciences, in collaboration with Farabi Hospital, has been exploring advanced technologies, particularly artificial intelligence, to enhance ophthalmology training. This led to a partnership with the Arash Robotics Group at Khajeh Nasir Toosi University of Technology, resulting in the Arash Assist surgical robot. The third version of this robot was successfully tested in the Farabi Hospital operating room using a donated human eye unsuitable for transplantation due to biological contamination. The robot includes two arms: one controlled by the master surgeon, whose movements are transmitted to the other arm, enabling the assistant surgeon to receive haptic feedback. Dr. Seyed Farzad Mohammadi, head of the Translational Ophthalmology Research Center at Tehran University of Medical Sciences, explains the use of this robotic system in a video.
