Yes, you read that right. The Apple Vision Pro, produced by Apple and launched for sale in recent months, was used for the first time in surgery worldwide. In a surgery conducted in the UK, an American surgeon opted to use Vision Pro to “eliminate human error.” Let’s take a look at the report describing how the Apple Vision Pro, dubbed a “game-changer,” was used in surgery…

How was the Apple Vision Pro used during surgery?

According to a report prepared by the British media, in a spinal surgery performed in the UK last month, a surgical nurse used the Vision Pro to prepare, execute the process correctly, and eliminate human error by using the tools more accurately. The surgical nurse may have taken a step towards advancements in the medical field by using the mixed reality glasses produced by Apple to adjust and organize the necessary medical materials to be used during the surgery.

According to the statements, the surgical nurse used the Vision Pro to perform certain tasks and facilitate the use and organization of medical tools. Suvi Verho, the nurse aiming to minimize human error by providing important information on the screen in addition to the real-world view through mixed reality glasses, described this technology as a “game-changer.”

The surgeon who performed the surgery, Syed Aftab, mentioned that the use of Vision Pro made the surgical process easier. He highlighted that it provided real-time information flow during the operation and enabled more effective work for an already experienced individual.

The surgical assistant, who was previously known to use Microsoft’s mixed reality headset HoloLens 2, seems to prefer experiencing the newly released Vision Pro by Apple this time, and according to his statements, Apple’s new device has groundbreaking features.
