[0002] Subretinal injection is a surgical technique for treating fundus diseases. During operation, the scleral puncture cannula is used to puncture and fix the eyeball wall about 2mm-2.5mm behind the limbus sclerae to establish a scleral tunnel, and then the injection needle is sent into the eye through the scleral tunnel to perform subretinal injection at a specific site. Since subretinal injection is difficult to operate and exceeds the physiological limit of human hands, this technique has been difficult to promote and apply widely.
[0003] Patent CN213641554U discloses a cannula for an ocular treatment device, which increases the observation range of medical personnel during surgery by the light-emitting collar arranged in the cannula for the ocular treatment device, assists the medical personnel in observing the surgical situation during surgery, and thus enables the medical personnel to accurately and quickly insert the ocular treatment device into the eye through the cannula without repeatedly opening the microscope for illumination or opening the indoor light to assist the surgery. In recent years, with the development and application of ophthalmic surgical robots, subretinal injection assisted by robots can greatly reduce the difficulty of the surgery, but in actual operation, the subretinal injection needle needs to be manually sent into the eye through the puncture cannula first, and then the surgical robot is used to assist in subretinal injection. The commonly used scleral puncture cannula for current ophthalmic surgical operation has specifications of 23G, 25G, and 27G, and the scleral tunnel established by the puncture cannula is cylindrical with a diameter of only about 0.4-0.6mm, while the specification of the subretinal injection needle is usually above 41G with a diameter of about 90um or less, which can cause the needle to bend and thus cannot be used when encountering slight resistance. It is difficult for the surgeon to deliver the injection needle through the puncture cannula, and it is very easy to cause the bending or breaking of the needle, thereby affecting the normal progress of the surgery.
