"I started to have myopia when I was in junior high school, and my myopia degree is not high, only around 100 degrees, but my astigmatism is higher, around 200 degrees; it's very inconvenient to wear glasses during activities, and in winter, the lenses get foggy, which makes it even harder to see with my high astigmatism." Mr. He, who is 27 years old, is the husband of Dr. Li Yangyang from our hospital and has been wearing glasses for many years.

When it came to the reason for wanting the surgery, Mr. He stated that, in addition to feeling inconvenient with wearing glasses, he also did so because his wife is an ophthalmologist. "She is an ophthalmologist after all, and she often educates me about eye care at home. So I am also quite knowledgeable about laser eye surgery," he added. Plus, Dr. Li had also had laser eye surgery himself, so Mr. He ultimately decided to come to China-Singapore Maylook Eye Hospital for the SMILE Surgery!

After a full set of pre-operative examinations, including eye examination and fundus examination, it was confirmed that Mr. He was very suitable for the SMILE surgery. What's more, Dr. Li personally explained the preoperative consent form to Mr. He and signed the relative consent form!

Soon, it was time for the operation, and Mr. He, who had put on his protective gear, was fully prepared. Dr. Li, who was waiting outside the transparent operating room, was still a little nervous as a family member: "As a family member, I am actually a little nervous, but as an ophthalmologist and having a good understanding of the surgery process, I also believe in Dr. Zhang's capabilities, so I'm not too worried."

"Okay, don't move your eyes!" five minutes later, as the sound of the Carl Zeiss Femtosecond laser device stopped, the surgery was successfully completed.

"I'm not nervous at all, after all, the family members are outside watching, but my eyes feel a bit out of control. However, the laser eye surgery was over very quickly, and in the few seconds when everything went white, it was over. It didn't hurt at all. Now I can even read the smallest letters at the bottom of the board outside the operating room." Ms. He pointed to the bulletin board outside the operating room and said.

The next day when she met Mr. He, he had just finished his post-operation checkup and both eyes had regained their vision to 1.2. She expressed her sincere gratitude to Dr. Zhang Yi and also to China-Singapore Maylook Eye Hospital, where her relatives work, for giving her a brand new vision in the new year, allowing her to study and live more freely in the future.

Director Zhang Yi said that whether she is performing surgery for colleagues' family members or other myopic friends, she always approaches each operation with the attitude of performing surgery for her own family members!
