FATIMA UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER Announces Availability of ZEISS SMILE PRO Laser Vision Correction

Went to far flung Antipolo City at the Fatima University Medical Center. It's a private medical facility and campus for people of Rizal and nearby cities. This has been founded in 1967 and it has grown to give medical services for communities too.

Dr. Vicente Santos MD, DPBO welcomed us and was proud to announce that they are now 6 campuses and 2 hospitals strong. Change is happening and now, they are dubbing their hospital as the home of expert eye care.

They had Kuya Kim Atienza and Vice Mayor Reynaldo San Juan Jr. as guests who congratulated them on a significant milestone for acquiring something big, they call it SMILE. Their doctors explained this new procedure and the difference it makes in surgery.

In a nutshell, it is safer, more precise, this is a flapless laser vision correction using the VISUMAX 800 machine. This is what they use to do incisions, reshape eyes to achieve better vision. Now, they can perform a wide range of correction from -0.75D to -1000D. Doing this is again, minimally invasive, very gentle, and takes 10 seconds of laser ablation per eye. This gives patients short recovery times because of minimal corneal disruption and is suitable for patients with high refractive errors, thin corneas, and dry eyes.This is part of Zeiss Smile technology used in over 10 million eyes worldwide. There are only 2900 doctors/surgeons who can practice this and we're so lucky to have then at the Fatima University Medical Center in Antipolo City.

According to a patient who had undergone it and said "Lasik and Zeiss Smile Pro is different as the latter doesn't have flaps done. The recovery time is better and I can do work the next day. It had no pain. I went to Fatima because my family went here for different procedures and surgeries. My brother underwent Smile 10 years ago and the Smile Pro is better. It is very effective and I trust them."

How About Matching Shades This Summer?

Choosing the right sun glasses would really put anyone into trouble especially when there's so many things out there to choose from. The harsh elements, UV Rays, the glare seem to be a non ending cycle and we've all got to solve that in some way. Is it complicated? Very. Although there are places where you can get the needed help without breaking the bank. You would want something that would be worth it, something that can get you the needed protection and of course still look good on you. Have you visited Ideal Vision Center lately?

Frames for Me

I've been having headaches these days and I got some minor bad news from my doctor. I might need to wear glasses. I'm not really a fan of wearing them since I see how hard it is to maintain. Some of my friends have worn them since they were kids and it looked like it was a little troublesome; let alone not fashion inclined... and to tell you honestly I'm afraid to be in the same situation. I did despise wearing them until I found an on line store that gave me choices beyond my imagination. They have designer grade prescription glasses that are very affordable so who could argue with that?! I must admit I was afraid they would all be very pricey because most malls carry them around hundreds of dollars. The on line store initially had their frames around 8 but these guys are so generous they even have more on the $6.50 range. Who can resist that?! They also have virtual try-on frames so you can take a look at what looks good on you. You can just get a portrait of yourself literally uploaded and fit with your favorite frames. That's just not available elsewhere! Amazing!

So if you guys have that notion or think that it's not cool wearing glasses these days; just remember that you may not have found the perfect pair yet. It takes time... or maybe it just takes a simple place on the net like ZENNI to get you one that you would love. You won't regret these things if you start right in choosing what would look good on you. Am I right?!
