Vietnam's SmartSight technology for treating refractive errors is honored

With the successful performance of 1,000 refractive surgeries using SmartSight technology, the female Director of Dong Do Eye Hospital was recently honored at SCHWINDAY - Level Up Your Vision.

From September 20 to 22 in Phu Quoc, the event "SCHWINDAY - Level Up Your Vision" took place, gathering leading experts in the field of ophthalmology worldwide, organized by SCHWIND - the world 's largest ophthalmic technology group.

Transfer of modern ophthalmic treatment technology at Dong Do Eye Hospital.

At the event, MSc. Dr. Dinh Thi Phuong Thuy, Director of Dong Do Hospital, reported on the results after 3 months of Dong Do Eye Hospital receiving the transfer of the first and pioneering SmartSight refractive surgery technology in Vietnam, achieving the best visual quality achievements.

During the discussion session, MSc. Dr. Dinh Thi Phuong Thuy also had in-depth discussions and shared clinical experiences when applying SmartSight technology in the treatment of refractive errors with leading ophthalmology experts in the world and Vietnam.

Also at the event, MSc. Dinh Thi Phuong Thuy was awarded the certificate "Leading in Asia with the successful performance of 1,000 refractive surgeries using SmartSight technology on the SCHWIND ATOS system".

This is a source of great pride for Dr. Thuy in particular, and also a testament to the tireless efforts of the medical team at Dong Do Eye Hospital in researching and implementing the most modern refractive error treatment solutions in the world in general.

Pioneering the application of SmartSight technology not only helps improve the quality of vision and best vision for thousands of patients but also contributes to bringing Vietnam's ophthalmology industry on par with developed countries in the world.

According to the leaders of Dong Do Eye Hospital, the facility has been and will continue to update and apply the latest and most advanced technologies in the field of ophthalmology to bring the best experiences and service efficiency to patients.

SmartSight is known to be the most advanced laser refractive surgery technology today, using a Femtosecond laser to create an ultra-thin piece of corneal tissue.

SmartSight is the most advanced laser refractive surgery technology available today, using a Femtosecond laser to create an ultra-thin piece of corneal tissue.

After the laser, the surgeon will monitor through the microscope on the Atos machine and can easily remove the tissue fragment through a small incision (2mm). SmartSight does not create a corneal flap of any kind and does not cut with the laser as with excimer laser.

Less invasiveness results in less nerve transection on the corneal surface, reducing the risk of postoperative dry eye.

SmartSight expands myopia and astigmatism with higher degrees of myopia and astigmatism than previous technologies. Allows treatment of myopia up to 12 degrees and astigmatism up to 6 degrees.

MSc. Dinh Phuong Thuy said that the worry of possible complications is also minimized by the small, minimally invasive incision. Laser therapy according to the curvature of the cornea helps vision recover faster.

Globally, SmartSight technology is emerging as a breakthrough, not only in terms of technology but also in preserving corneal tissue. This is an important factor, because the cornea is a non-renewable structure and every micrometer of preserved corneal tissue is of great value.

By minimizing the amount of tissue that needs to be removed, SmartSight significantly reduces the risk of postoperative dry eye - a common complication of other laser eye surgery methods.

At the same time, removing less tissue also increases the precision in correcting refractive errors, providing optimal results for customers.
