The Barcelona clinic has just launched Thermaeye, a revolutionary machine to combat dry eye.
On February 2,3, 4 and XNUMX, the XIX edition of FacoELche, an ophthalmology congress that has established itself among the national events in the sector. He is a specialist in anterior segment in surgery of Cataracts, refractive surgery and treatment of pathologies such as keratotonus.
The illusion to improve, the dialogue and the debate were present in all the organized activities. Varied and interesting conferences were organized as well as organized surgical sessions and sessions prepared by ophthalmologists in training. I would highlight a table where the controversial subject of the new regulatory framework for congresses and medical training was discussed with the representation of all the sectors involved.
During FacoElche the fourth edition of FacOptom was held, a meeting point for clinical optometrists, ophthalmologists and physicists. In this section, Área Oftalmológica Avanzada was able to participate in one of the three discussion tables that were organized, contributing our grain of sand on the future of ophthalmology and the latest technological advances, based on the experience gained through daily work in the clinic, which has recently been launched market Thermaeye, latest technology created to combat Dry Eye.
In the first table, a debate was opened on what extended range intraocular lenses offer us compared to trifocal lenses. The latest calculation formulas for the power of the intraocular lens and the new contributions for calculations of toric intraocular lenses.
The second table was dedicated to the binocular vision and refractive surgery. The Pre-refractive surgery manual was presented: Exploration protocol, binocular vision and accommodation. Optometrists and ophthalmologists discussed the binocular problems that should be treated before intervening in certain patients, the problems that may arise in the postoperative period and the most indicated tests in each situation.
To conclude, the third roundtable was constituted by optometrists, physicists and ophthalmologists and discussed the latest technological advances and their possible clinical applications. It focused on the development of simulators that will allow assessing how the patient will see with the different types of intraocular lenses before surgery. The possible future of the development of intraocular lenses was also discussed.
A great event, as a whole, in which it was possible to learn, teach and interact with great professionals with the aim of exchanging knowledge and improving.
