About
Dr. Jian Bo Mao is a pioneering researcher in ophthalmic microsurgery, with a primary focus on advancing robotic assistance for delicate retinal procedures. His most significant contribution lies in demonstrating the feasibility of robot-assisted retinal vascular bypass surgery (RVBS), a groundbreaking approach to treating retinal vascular occlusions. In his landmark 2017 study, Dr. Mao developed a novel dual-robotic-arm system specifically designed for this intricate microsurgery and rigorously compared its success rate against traditional freehand techniques using an ex vivo porcine model. This work, which has garnered 8 citations, established a critical proof-of-concept for enhancing surgical precision and stability beyond human capability. By systematically evaluating the robotic system’s performance, Dr. Mao’s research directly addresses the extreme technical challenges of operating on retinal vessels, paving the way for future clinical applications. His work is highly influential for surgeons and engineers developing next-generation ophthalmic robotics, positioning him as a key innovator at the intersection of microsurgery and automation.
