Just to note for other players whom do doctoring, for example if you have broken bones in the or chest of a patient, including something lodged inside of them within the same region. You can get that all done in one operation. First start with internal organ surgery for example, after you get the skull or rib cage opened for surgery, you can proceed imminently with your standard internal organ surgery alongside foreign object removal even if it's a knife stuck in that region, pretty much like taking out a piece of bullet shrapnel there.
Now where's the interesting part after you've finished using the hemostat for any foreign objects without damaging your patient more, and restored their internal organs alongside eyes/brain if you're condensing surgeries down. After you bend the skull/ribs back into place and use bone gel, you can use the bone gel again imminently afterwards to begin broken bone surgery as internal organ/foreign object removal was finished. Reduces the chance of infecting the patent as it's all one surgery still whilst saving operation time. Once finished cauterize and wash up.
Now if you don't have a trauma kit available or wish to save it when there's only brain damage or eye damage present, you can also use the old versions for those surgeries to patch them up. I.E. taking bone chips out, then attempting fix-o-vein in case there's been hemorrhaging around the brain, after you've opened the skull like normal internal organ surgery in that case. Now for those unfamiliar with eye surgery; it's scalpel, retractors, hemostat, cauterize for separate surgeries. If it's mechanical you're mostly stuck doing old fashion eye surgery.
I hope these notes help out for several doctors, as it also saves you time doing things in the OR, unless there's multiple areas effected in which that case would take a while. Given eye observations for patients with broken bones, you can narrow down some areas where they may be effected. Health analyzers will notify you of anything that can be splinted with broken bones unless already splinted; leaving the head, chest, and groin mostly as a question of where. In that case you can move to the body scanner to narrow down where on top of isolated internal organ damage/shrapnel.
