London Vision Clinic: At the Forefront of Refractive Surgery
Since we opened our doors on the world-renowned Harley Street way back in 2002, London Vision Clinic has been at the forefront of refractive surgery. Today, we remain one of the world’s leading Laser Eye Surgery clinics. This is thanks to our dedication to the highest quality treatments and the development of new and innovative techniques and procedures.
Two such procedures, co-developed by our very own founder and expert Laser Eye Surgeon, Professor Dan Reinstein, are ReLEx SMILE and PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision:
- ReLEx SMILE is an innovative keyhole Laser Eye Surgery procedure that allows the treatment of higher prescriptions and the treatment of patients with thinner corneas or dry eyes.
- PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision involves correcting each eye in a different way to create a “blend zone”. This allows the brain to compensate for the development of presbyopia (ageing eyes).
Since their development, these innovative treatments have corrected the vision of tens of thousands of patients. What’s more, our Refractive Surgery courses have helped to educate and train surgeons from around the world in these pioneering procedures.
Laser Eye Surgery Courses by London Vision Clinic
We are proud to offer a range of courses specialised in the field of refractive surgery. This includes our:
Forefront Refractive Surgery Course: Developed to provide corneal refractive surgeons who are interested in performing LASIK, PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision and ReLEx SMILE with valuable resources. Expect a three-day course including lectures, practical workshops, group workshops, and a wet lab.
Our LIVE courses are available in-person in London, Brazil, and India.
Forefront Therapeutic Refractive Surgery Course: This course focuses on the management of refractive complications and includes advanced topics, such as diagnostics, treatment planning, treatment modalities, retreatment surgical techniques, and post-operative monitoring and management.
Why attend our courses?
In the past, Intraocular Lens Replacement and LASIK were seen as the norm in refractive surgery. While these procedures have their advantages in certain patients, the procedures covered in the Forefront Refractive Surgery Course often offer additional benefits. It should come as no surprise, then, that we are seeing an upsurge in interest around the world in learning about these two techniques.
London Vision Clinic became the first clinic in the UK to perform SMILE way back in 2011. Since then, the expertise of the faculty and level of teaching at London Vision Clinic have attracted delegates from 18 countries to our renowned courses, including:
The UK, Spain, Argentina, Thailand, Malta, Colombia, Algeria, Hong Kong, Germany, Austria, Malaysia, USA, Denmark, Ethiopia, Turkey, China, Poland, Mexico, India, Singapore, Belgium, Canada, Switzerland.
Our past courses have received overwhelming positive feedback. We always have further dates coming up, so if you are interested in attending one of London Vision Clinic’s latest Forefront Refractive Surgery courses, find out more and register here.
