Strategic Leadership

Embarking on a New Journey of Patient Education

At the beginning of the meeting, Professor Shen Zhengwei, Head of the Bright Eye Refractive Surgery Group and Chief Director of Bright Eye Hubei Province, delivered an opening speech. He provided an in-depth analysis of the new generation.RobotAll-Flyer™The Core Value of Technology in Reshaping the Standards of Refractive Surgery: Bright Eye's Commitment to Innovation, Focusing on Delivering Clinical Outcomes that Benefit Patients through "Ultra-Fast, Precise, and Comfortable" Surgical Experiences.

As another guest speaker, Mr. Liu Yonghua, General Manager of Carl Zeiss Medical China, highly affirmed the pioneering role of Bright Eye in the promotion and clinical application of SMILE pro technology from the perspective of the integration of medicine and engineering. He expressed the beautiful vision that both parties would continue to deepen their strategic cooperation to jointly build a high-quality refractive surgery ecosystem. Subsequently, Bright Eye and Zeiss representatives jointly launched the "Zeiss Youth Light·Bright Eye Patient Education Special Session," aiming to inject new vitality into the refractive industry through the growth of young doctors and the input of popular science power.

Focus on Clinical Practice

Experts Discuss SMILEproApplicationNew Achievements

By Ms. Huang He, Business Dean of Changchun Bright Eye Ophthalmology Hospital, andHepalink"SMILE Pro Clinical and Digital Platform Application" Session Hosted by Mr. Xiao Qirui, Deputy Dean of the Ophthalmology Hospital, Bright Eye Experts Share Valuable Clinical Experience, Fully Demonstrating Bright Eye's Deep Accumulation in the Field of Refractive Surgery.

Deputy Head of the Refractive Optometry Group at Bright Eye, and Vice President of the Chongqing-Guizhou Region, Professor Peng Yanli, affirmed the value of the Workplace digital intelligence platform in conjunction with SMILE Pro in her lecture titled "Clinical Outcomes of Patients Using Workplace Applied to SMILE Pro in Refractive Surgery": "A one-stop closed-loop planning system that makes full femtosecond laser surgery more precise, efficient, and safe."

Deputy Head of the Refractive Optometry Group at Bright Eye, and Business Dean of Urumqi Bright Eye Hospital, Mr. Hu Yukun, shared in his presentation "Clinical Observations on the Effectiveness of SMILE Pro Surgery and Experiences with VISUMAX 800," stating that the clinical treatment outcomes of SMILE Pro are excellent. He looks forward to the IOL Master's automatic navigation and eye rotation compensation function providing patients with an even better visual experience.

Deputy Group Leader of Bright Eye's Refractive Optometry Team and Deputy Business Director of Wuhan Bright Eye Hospital, Ms. Guan Nian, delivered a presentation titled "Clinical Application and Preliminary Results of the New Generation Minimally Invasive SMILE pro™ Surgery." She pointed out that SMILE pro™ achieves an astonishing efficiency of just 10 seconds for single-eye laser scanning, not only greatly enhancing the smoothness of the surgery but also significantly reducing the risk of suction loss. Its integrated intelligent central positioning and real-time eye rotation tracking technology enable micrometer-level precision in astigmatism correction, greatly improving the safety and comfort of the procedure.

Roundtable Discussion

Build a High-Quality Refractive Ecosystem

In the subsequent "Roundtable Forum - Technological Iteration and Ecological Reconstruction," the expert team from Bright Eye engaged in a lively discussion on the new paradigm of refractive surgery driven by SMILE pro.

Mr. He Shouke, Director of the Refractive Specialty Department at Bright Eye Kunming, shared his clinical experience. He stated that SMILE pro technology perfectly integrates "ultra-fast" with "intelligent," not only achieving precise surgical outcomes but also providing a dual superior experience empowered by technology for both doctors and patients. Ms. Ling Ling, Director of the Refractive Specialty Department at Bright Eye Nanchang, offered a forward-thinking perspective from the industry development angle, proposing the idea of "exceeding vision with foresight." She believes that refractive surgery is rapidly advancing into a new era of precision and personalization, and Bright Eye is committed to collaborating with industry peers to jointly build a high-quality refractive ecosystem.

From Concept to Practice: Dr. Lin Limei, Chief Surgeon at Guangzhou Bright Eye Hospital, supplemented from the perspective of service and communication. She emphasized that medical quality is the most core guarantee, including accurate preoperative evaluation, optimization of surgical parameters, and a fast and excellent surgical experience, "allowing patients to truly feel they are getting their money's worth."

Mr. Wang Feng, Deputy Dean of Bright Eye Hospital in Changchun, concluded that SMILE pro is leading refractive surgery into a brand-new era, with its technological innovation bringing patients a fourfold leap in speed, safety, experience, and reputation.

Frontier Exploration

Break Through Age Limits, Reshape Full-Range Vision

"Introduction to the Frontier of Refractive New Technologies" was co-hosted by Ms. Zhang Xiaolin, Vice President of Bright Eye Hospital affiliated with Shanghai University of Medicine & Health Sciences, and Ms. Zhang Haiyan, Director of the Refractive Specialty Department at Tianjin Bright Eye Hospital. In this session, Professor Shen Zhengwei delivered a keynote report titled "Laser Corneal Refractive Surgery for Chinese Patients with Age-Related Accommodation Insufficiency and Refractive Errors," elaborating on three presbyopia surgical strategies based on this consensus: Mavic, Clear-Q (Jing Chun), and ZEISS's PRESBYOND (Carl Zeiss Fusion Vision Presbyopia Surgery). Professor Shen pointed out that for patients over 40 with refractive errors accompanied by presbyopia (presbyopic eyes), the surgical design should not be limited to myopia correction alone. By combining aspheric personalized ablation with micro-monovision, and leveraging neural adaptation in the brain and optical superposition effects, it is possible to achieve clear vision at far, intermediate, and near distances while correcting refractive errors, helping patients reduce their dependence on reading glasses. The third-generation LBV fusion vision presbyopia surgery offers more advantages in its design concept and clinical outcomes.

Ms. Luo Chang, Senior Manager of Carl Zeiss (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., and Mr. Li Dan, Senior Manager, respectively introduced the new generation of ZEISS PRESBYOND Fusion Vision Presbyopia Surgery Technology.™, as well as the Carl Zeiss refractive new technologies Workplace and FLAP functions, further highlight Carl Zeiss's continuous innovation in improving surgical precision and operational convenience.

This seminar is not only a clinical demonstration platform for SMILE pro technology but also a concentrated showcase of Bright Eye's refractive treatment system. As a pioneer in China’s refractive surgery field, Bright Eye consistently adheres to the guidance of clinical needs. Through the standardized application of cutting-edge technologies like SMILE pro and the establishment of a full-process quality control system, it is committed to providing more precise and comfortable lens-removal solutions for myopia patients worldwide. The convening of this conference not only verifies the significant advantages of SMILE pro in clinical practice but also contributes valuable practical experience to promoting high-quality, standardized development in refractive surgery.
