Methods and systems for providing a visual indication of suture strain include detecting a force applied to the suture; obtaining an image including the suture; identifying, based on at least one of an algorithm to convert a plurality of forces to a plurality of colors or in a table that associates a plurality of colors to a plurality of forces, respectively, a color associated with the force applied to the suture; generating an augmented version of the image; and displaying the augmented version of the image, where the identified color is used to represent at least a portion of the suture.
