About
Yuki Koyama is a leading researcher in the field of robot-assisted vitreoretinal surgery, focusing on the development of autonomous and semi-autonomous systems to enhance precision and safety in delicate ophthalmic procedures. Their major contributions include pioneering autonomous control strategies for surgical robots, such as the use of tool shadow tracking and Kalman filtering for precise positioning (16 citations), and the implementation of vector-field inequalities for orbital manipulation to safely rotate the eye during surgery (9 citations). Koyama’s work on autonomous coordinated control of light guides for vitreoretinal surgery (23 citations) addresses the challenge of limited workspace and delicate tissue handling, marking a significant step toward task automation in microsurgery. Their recent evaluation of shared autonomy modes, including novel one-hand teleoperation (2025, 3 citations), provides critical insights into human-robot collaboration. With a growing citation impact and a focus on translating robotic assistance from concept to clinical practice, Koyama’s research is shaping the future of vitreoretinal surgery, offering safer and more efficient solutions for both surgeons and patients.
