FUMC has been at the forefront of providing exceptional eye care for decades. Its medical expertise, combined with the latest advancements in vision correction, such as the ZEISS SMILE pro, has transformed the lives of many visually impaired Filipinos.
The ZEISS SMILE pro is a minimally invasive procedure designed to correct nearsightedness and astigmatism. Utilizing the advanced Zeiss Visumax 800 femtosecond laser, SMILE reshapes the cornea through a small incision, maintaining the biomechanical stability of the cornea, thereby protecting its integrity. The tiny incision also helps minimize post-operative dry eye. The laser ablation is completed in just nine seconds, faster compared to the earlier SMILE technology. This enhances patient comfort and overall procedural efficiency, and allows for a quick recovery time.
“Our integration of Zeiss SMILE pro underscores our dedication to pioneering the future of laser vision correction in the Philippines, providing Filipinos with the latest technology available, complemented by our caring and professional medical experts and staff,” stated Dr. Vicente Santos, president of Fatima University Medical Center. “FUMC has a long and successful track record of achieving outstanding results for our eye care patients, and this latest advancement further solidifies our commitment to healthcare excellence.”
