Musculoskeletal complaints and data of the HUD system use were correlated with demographic information. We explored surgeons’ feedback on image quality, depth perception, and the educational value of 3D microscopy.Results: In this study, the prevalence of self-reported MSK pain was 82.6% (n=132). The pain started after joining ophthalmology practice and significantly improves on weekends and vacations. We found that the pain intensity in non-HUD users is higher than in HUD users, but this correlation was not statistically significant. Sixty-one (84.7%) of HUD system users were satisfied with depth perception, and 27 (37.5%) reported improvement in peripheral acuity. Thirty-seven (51.4%) of the participants believed they perform surgeries better through HUD; this was why most participants (83.3%) recommended its use in surgical training.Conclusion: Heads-up display use provides more comfortable sitting positions for surgeons, superior depth perception, and serves as a better educational tool. We believe that adopting this technology may help improve career longevity and productivity.Keywords: ergonomics, heads-up display, three-dimensional visualization, ophthalmic surgeryBin Helayel HAl-Mazidi SAlAkeely ADove Medical Pressarticleergonomicsheads-up displaythree-dimensional visualizationophthalmic surgeryOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 15, Pp 679-686 (2021) |
