Apple’s Vision Pro has spent most of its life being called too heavy and too expensive.
But a new peer-reviewed study out of UC San Diego suggests that in an operating room, it’s actually neither and can be pretty useful for surgery.
Surgeons reported a lighter workload, and every single one who took part said they preferred working with the Vision Pro over the monitor setup.
With a traditional monitor, surgeons often end up craning their neck toward a screen off to the side while their hands work somewhere else entirely.
A Vision Pro isn’t cheap for a hospital in isolation, but stack it against a surgical monitor cart and suddenly it looks like a rounding error.
