About

Dr. Amr Saad is a pioneering researcher in vitreoretinal surgery, with a focused expertise in the application of robotics and advanced imaging to improve surgical outcomes for epiretinal membranes (ERM). His work addresses a critical challenge in ophthalmology: enhancing the precision and safety of membrane peeling, a procedure vital for restoring vision in aging populations. Dr. Saad’s major contributions include a landmark comparative study of the Preceyes Surgical System (PSS) for robot-assisted membrane peeling versus manual techniques, which meticulously analyzed surgical times and iatrogenic risks, garnering 5 citations. He further advanced the field by piloting a novel method for real-time integration of preoperative Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) thickness maps into live surgical video feeds, a technique that promises to revolutionize intraoperative visualization and decision-making. This innovative work, with 3 citations, demonstrates his commitment to translating complex imaging data into actionable surgical guidance. Dr. Saad’s research is at the forefront of making delicate retinal procedures safer and more effective, establishing him as a key figure in the evolution of robotic and image-guided ophthalmic surgery.
