About

Giorgia Mirisola is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of surgical innovation and occupational health, with a primary focus on the ergonomic and physiological impacts of robotic-assisted surgery. Her most cited work, "3D Da Vinci robotic surgery: is it a risk to the surgeon’s eye health?" (2023, 9 citations), investigates the visual strain and binocular vision changes experienced by surgeons using the Da Vinci three-dimensional system—a technology now fundamental to abdominal, urological, and gynecological laparoscopy. This study addresses a critical gap in understanding how prolonged exposure to 3D stereoscopic displays may affect surgeon well-being, highlighting Mirisola’s commitment to optimizing both patient outcomes and operator safety. Her research uniquely bridges surgical robotics with ophthalmology and ergonomics, offering evidence-based insights that could inform future design of surgical interfaces. Though early in her career, Mirisola’s work has already garnered attention for its practical relevance, as robotic surgery adoption accelerates worldwide. By quantifying discomfort and ocular changes, she provides a foundation for safer, more sustainable surgical practices—a vital contribution for trainees and veterans alike navigating the digital operating room.
