Admittedly, I only ever entered an operating room under anesthesia, but could you just, you know, put the displays somewhere else?
This seems like one of those informercial “problems”.
Comment on Why Surgeons Are Wearing The Apple Vision Pro

“I’m usually turning around and stopping the operation to see a CT scan; looking to see what happened with the endoscopy [another small camera that provides a closer look at organs]; looking at the monitor for the heart rate,” Horgan says.
Horgan says that wearing headsets during surgeries has improved his effectiveness while lowering his risk of injury.
Just if it wasn’t clear to anyone else.

As someone who does this exact thing, no you can’t just put the displays somewhere else. None of this shit is wireless. Wireless is verboten in healthcare.
Which leads to my initial reaction: aww poor surgeon has to tilt their head a bunch, perhaps move their torso or even their feet? Of course this is the reason to retire early not the millions they are paid in the corrupt healthcare system.
I’m the motherfucker that let you have displays in the OR. I contorted my body in incredible ways to get that cable to your displays. My body hurts all the time. I cut through walls and spent long nights and early mornings to get those displays working so you only had to slightly move your head.
Bitch ass fucks.

Ok but neither of you should be experiencing workplace injuries. If wireless is unacceptable sterilized wired headsets should be accessible. I don’t want doctors getting CTE

But the vision pro is permitted to use wireless?

This is the weirdest cyberpunk future.
On one hand, we have surgeons performing surgery with literal augmented reality,
On the other hand, if you’re poor you’ll never have an iota of a chance of seeing that doctor.

Sounds like an american healthcare problem to me

Yeah, this sounds like a problem for only the 5% of the world who live in a specific country.

That latter point doesn’t really apply if you leave America.
