At AcuSurgical, we are redefining the limits of ophthalmic surgery
Founded in 2020 in Montpellier, France, our mission is simple: to empower surgeons with the “superpowers” of robotics.
By enhancing precision and eliminating the smallest physical limitations, we help specialists tackle the most complex vitreoretinal challenges with confidence.
Our journey began by looking at the delicate nature of retinal procedures and realizing that even the most skilled human hand has its limits.
We built Luca, our advanced robotic platform, to bridge that gap. By providing unparalleled control and stability, Luca assists surgeons in complex and demanding procedures, from repairing retinal detachments to treating macular diseases, ensuring that every movement is as precise as the vision it seeks to restore.
Precision Beyond Human Limits.
Retinal surgery pushes the boundaries of human capability. When a microscopic tremor can change a patient’s life, “good enough” isn’t an option. We empower surgeons to transcend physical limitations, turning human intuition into robotic precision.
We envision a future where robotic assistance in ophthalmic surgery becomes the standard, enabling procedures that were previously impossible. Our goal is to help surgeons restore vision more effectively, giving hope to patients worldwide.
At AcuSurgical, our mission is to revolutionize retinal surgery by empowering ophthalmic surgeons with advanced robotic technology. We aim to enhance precision, safety, and enable previously unimaginable procedures at the micron level, transforming patient care and outcomes.
Luca® brings the best of human and machine – intelligent software and micro-precision robotics working together to help surgeons plan, decide, and operate with greater accuracy and confidence. Luca reduces cognitive load at the most demanding moments, minimizes variability, and keeps the human firmly in command. More accurate, more predictable, and more accessible surgery than ever before.
Luca®, our cutting-edge robotic platform is designed to support surgeons in their most complex procedures, bringing a new standard of care to ophthalmic surgery.
Vitreoretinal surgery demands more than steady hands. It demands perfect coordination, micron-level precision, and increasingly, the ability to process complex information in real time, all while managing the inherent risks of operating at the back of the eye.
Luca was built for exactly this reality. It’s a digital, tele-operated bi-manual robotic platform, allowing the work of both hands in perfect sync, at a scale no unaided human can match.
Developed with surgeons, for surgeons, it directly addresses what actually makes these procedures demanding: tremor, fatigue, limited feedback, and growing cognitive complexity. And as computer vision and intraoperative data become part of the surgical workflow, Luca is a platform technology evolving for helping surgeons see more, decide better, and make fewer mistakes.
