About

Jimmy Uddin is a pioneering surgeon and researcher at the forefront of orbital oncology, where he has fundamentally redefined the surgical approach to complex periocular tumours. His primary research focus is the development and clinical validation of robotic assisted orbital surgery (RAOS), a novel technique designed to overcome the extreme spatial constraints of the orbit. Uddin’s major contribution lies in demonstrating that robotic systems can offer the exceptional precision, manoeuvrability, and gentle tissue manipulation required for resecting advanced tumours in this delicate anatomy—a feat previously limited by conventional instrumentation. His landmark 2022 paper, "Robotic assisted orbital surgery (RAOS)—A novel approach to orbital oncology surgery," has garnered 13 citations, establishing the foundational proof-of-concept for the field. Building on this, his 2024 case series (7 citations) provides critical evidence on the feasibility, safety, and oncological outcomes of the approach, directly addressing the need for higher accuracy in confined spaces. Through this translational work, Uddin is not only advancing surgical capabilities but also setting a new standard for minimally invasive, high-precision care in orbital oncology.
