Researchers focused on 32 endoscopic tear-duct operations, comparing 16 procedures performed with the Vision Pro against 16 using a standard display. All operations in both groups succeeded without complications, so the difference lay in speed and comfort rather than surgical outcomes. While the headset remains an expensive consumer product (starting at $3,499), the study suggests that it may bring added value to the medical industry. Larger, controlled studies are needed before drawing firmer conclusions about the Vision Pro's broader surgical potential.
