Center For Sight Permits Video Recording During Live Surgeries

Coconut Telegraph

Center For Sight, one of the nation’s leading ophthalmology practices, is now permitting the use of personal video cameras and mobile technology during all surgical procedures, as approved by the patient and subject to patient privacy concerns. Family members and friends are encouraged to join their loved ones’ during surgery, viewing the procedure from state-of-the art observation rooms adjoining the operating room. A personal narrator is assigned to the patient’s family, explaining each step of the procedure from start to finish. Guests can film the surgery with their personal device, either from a short distance through the observation window, or up close via the large digital screen. The digital screen is connected to the surgeon’s microscope, offering a unique opportunity to see the procedure from the surgeon’s perspective. Center For Sight surgical procedures take place in the AAAHC-accredited surgery center in Sarasota.
