I have read with great interest Lin and colleagues' article on the use of augmented
reality (AR) in zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fractures fixation.

Augmented Reality (AR) is a rapidly advancing technology that is gaining acceptance
and application in a variety of surgical fields. There have been numerous studies
evaluating the precision and accuracy of AR-guided navigation. This study contributes
to the body of evidence demonstrating the exciting potential of augmented reality
in craniomaxillofacial surgery.- Lin L.

- PreviewZygomaticomaxillary complex fractures involve four fracture ends. It is difficult to fully expose the operative area through a main coronal incision, an intraoral incision, and an eyelid incision. To address the partial visual field loss in craniofacial fracture reduction, we attempted to use an augmented reality (AR) navigation system.
