In certain embodiments, a robotic system for an ophthalmic injection facility includes one or more patient transportation robots and an ophthalmic injection robot located in a treatment hub of the ophthalmic injection facility. Each patient transportation robot includes a drive system, one or more sensors, a patient interface (PI) system, a chair, and a control system configured to navigate to the treatment hub based on the sensor data. The ophthalmic injection robot includes a support frame, a robotic arm, and a control system. The robotic arm includes one or more cameras and a docking assembly including a needle. The control system is configured to position the docking assembly to couple the docking assembly to a PI device attached to an eye of the patient, inject a drug through the needle into the eye of the patient, and position the docking assembly to decouple the docking assembly from the PI device.
