Abstract

Incorporating consumer electronics into the operating room, we evaluated the Apple Vision Pro (AVP) during limb preservation surgeries, just as we evaluated Google Glass and FaceTime more than a decade ago. Although AVP’s real-time mixed-reality data overlay and controls offer potential enhancements to surgical precision and team communication, our assessment recognized limitations in adapting consumer technology to clinical environments. The initial use facilitated intraoperative decision-making and educational interactions with trainees. The current mixed-reality pass-through resolution allows for input but not for highly dexterous surgical interactions. These early observations indicate that while AVP may soon improve aspects of surgical performance and education, further iteration, evaluation, and experience are needed to fully understand its impact on patient outcomes and to refine its integration into clinical practice.
