Advances in vitreoretinal robotic surgery enable precise techniques for gene therapies. This study evaluates three robotic approaches using the 7-DoF robotic arm for docking a micro-precise tool to a trocar: fully co-manipulated, hybrid co-manipulated/teleoperated, and hybrid with camera assistance. The fully co-manipulated approach was the fastest but had a 42% success rate. Hybrid methods showed higher success rates (91.6% and 100%) and completed tasks within 2 minutes. NASA Task Load Index (TLX) assessments indicated lower physical demand and effort for hybrid approaches.
