1. A surgical assembly for ocular surgery comprising: a direct measuring device of intraocular pressure, a surgical accessory utilizable in conjunction with a surgical instrument suitable for performing eye surgery, the surgical accessory being insertable in an ocular cavity through an accessory ocular incision, wherein the direct measuring device of intraocular pressure is coupled to the surgical accessory so as to be insertable in the ocular cavity along with the surgical accessory through the accessory ocular incision; wherein the direct measuring device comprises a fiber optic pressure transducer; wherein the fiber optic pressure transducer extends inside an infusion cannula, and wherein the fiber optic pressure transducer and the infusion cannula are connected to each other by a three-way solenoid valve, the three-way solenoid valve having a first way being fluidically connected to the infusion cannula, a second way, aligned with the first way, being connected to a fiber optic pressure transducer with axial locking of the fiber optic pressure transducer, and a third way being fluidically connected to an output line of a fluid infusion pump.
