| contents | We present CataractSAM-2, a domain-adapted extension of Meta's Segment Anything Model 2, designed for real-time semantic segmentation of cataract ophthalmic surgery videos with high accuracy. Positioned at the intersection of computer vision and medical robotics, CataractSAM-2 enables precise intraoperative perception crucial for robotic-assisted and computer-guided surgical systems. Furthermore, to alleviate the burden of manual labeling, we introduce an interactive annotation framework that combines sparse prompts with video-based mask propagation. This tool significantly reduces annotation time and facilitates the scalable creation of high-quality ground-truth masks, accelerating dataset development for ocular anterior segment surgeries. We also demonstrate the model's strong zero-shot generalization to glaucoma trabeculectomy procedures, confirming its cross-procedural utility and potential for broader surgical applications. The trained model and annotation toolkit are released as open-source resources, establishing CataractSAM-2 as a foundation for expanding anterior ophthalmic surgical datasets and advancing real-time AI-driven solutions in medical robotics, as well as surgical video understanding. |
