The 3rd International Forum on Refractive Surgery: Experts from China, the United States and Europe discuss cutting-edge new technologies in refractive surgery

On May 21, the 3rd International Forum on Refractive Surgery (IRSS2022), jointly sponsored by Aier Eye Hospital Group and Aier College of Ophthalmology, Central South University, was held in Guangzhou, China. Simultaneously with Madrid, Spain. As an international academic exchange platform in the field of refractive surgery, the conference set up two venues in China and Europe in the form of a combination of online and offline, and invited many authoritative experts in refractive surgery from 7 countries. The new technology, new progress and new achievements of diagnosis and treatment in the field of refraction will be discussed in depth.

Professor Wang Zheng, chairman of the conference and head of the refractive surgery group of Aier Eye Hospital Group, said that the conference will focus on personalized surgery, full femtosecond Starting from multiple topics such as surgery, ICL intraocular refractive surgery, and presbyopia correction, we will discuss and exchange cutting-edge academic achievements in the field of refractive index.

Julio Baviera, co-chairman of the European branch, member of the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (ESCRS), and one of the founders of the European Clínica Baviera Group, mentioned that this year marks the 20th anniversary of the establishment of Aier Ophthalmology. 30th anniversary of the European Clínica Baviera Group. Over the past 30 years, the Clínica Baviera Group has continued to grow and strive to protect the eye health of its patients.

Professor Yao Ke, chairman of the Ophthalmology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, said that the conference provides a global, multi-disciplinary academic exchange platform to implement and share global ophthalmology wisdom and create a world refractive future.

Professor Wang Yan, Dean of Tianjin Eye Hospital, pointed out that refractive surgery is one of the important research fields that ophthalmology colleagues at home and abroad pay attention to. Ten domestic and foreign ophthalmology experts shared online and offline disciplinary frontier dynamics and shared academic research results.

Director Huang Yibin of the editorial department of “Chinese Journal of Ophthalmology” mentioned that “Chinese Journal of Ophthalmology” has witnessed the changes of Aier Ophthalmology over the years, growing step by step, and looking forward to Aier Ophthalmology achieving a higher level of development.

“This year, Aier Ophthalmology embarked on a new journey of high-quality development in the new decade. In the next three years, the group will focus on building 8 regional-level international ophthalmic centers, and at the same time strengthen the eyesight of counties, districts and townships. Health system construction. We will continue to promote global academic exchanges on refractive optics, make greater breakthroughs in discipline development and talent echelon, and continuously improve the effective refractive error correction coverage (eREC).” Li Li, President of Aier Eye Hospital Group, delivered a speech. said.

For interdisciplinary research, Professor Yao Ke gave a detailed presentation on the complications and prevention strategies related to LenSx femtosecond laser capsulectomy. According to epidemiological statistics, there are nearly 163 million patients with high myopia in the world, and my country is a big country with myopia. The situation is not optimistic. Professor Tang Shibo, President of Aier Eye Hospital Group, conducted a detailed analysis of the fundus lesions caused by high myopia. The fundus situation is complex, and different situations require different treatment plans. High myopia affects the entire eyeball and can even lead to blindness if not checked and treated in time.

In the topic section “Current Situation and Development of Mainstream Refractive Surgery”, Professor Wang Zheng introduced the hotspots of femtosecond laser surgery research in recent years in his speech on “Corneal stromal lens transplantation for correction of moderate hyperopia” One of them is corneal stromal lens transplantation. Compared with excimer laser surgery, lens implantation has obvious advantages in correcting high hyperopia. While lens implantation is still in the initial stage of exploration at home and abroad, he believes that it can be further promoted on the basis of more attempts and accumulation of more experience.

In addition, Prof. Wang Yan, Prof. Zhou Xingtao, Prof. Chen Yueguo, etc. from the hazards of high myopia, dome height and prediction, the safety and effectiveness of personalized femtosecond surgery to correct myopia and astigmatism, corneal biomechanics Influence of corneal refractive surgery effect, comprehensively shared the development status of mainstream myopia surgery such as ICL, full femtosecond, and personalized femtosecond. Professor Zhang Fengju conducted an in-depth discussion on the LVC correction of age-related accommodation decline accompanied by myopia.

It is worth mentioning that this conference has a special academic debate competition, which will stimulate speculation on the choice of different options for presbyopia surgery, surging academic enthusiasm, focusing on the cultivation of “young blood”, and giving young doctors A stage for self-expression.

In the European sub-venue, “2022 International Myopia Surgery White Paper: European Development Report” and “2022 International Myopia Surgery White Paper: China Development Report” were jointly launched at this forum, the European Board of Ophthalmology (FEBO) Members, Professor Gonzalo Muoz, Medical Director of Aier Spain, and Professor Wang Zheng made an in-depth analysis of myopia surgery in China and Europe by analyzing the surgical methods and postoperative effects of different age groups, genders, and myopia patients in different regions. The current situation provides industry benchmarking guidance for the development of myopia surgery in the future.
