Because you are dealing with a team of highly skilled and caring professionals!

The ophthalmologist meets each patient before the surgery to ensure that they comply with all safety criteria.

The qualified team of optometrists works in close collaboration with the ophthalmologist in order to guide and support you during the entire assessment procedure, as well as during the post-operative follow-up visits.

The ophthalmologist ensures your healing process progresses normally within the first 24 hours of surgery. In addition, the ophthalmologist oversees all post-operative follow-ups, in comanagement with your local optometrist.

Because the IRIS Ophthalmology Clinic is evolving as fast as the technology!

Each year, our ophthalmologist participates in international conferences on research and development in refractive surgery. He is passionate about integrating into his practice state-of-the-art techniques and equipment in order to provide high quality health care, in compliance with high standards of patient comfort and safety.

The IRIS Ophthalmology Clinic boasts equipment, such as Carl Zeiss Meditec Laser MEL-80™ , WASCA Aberrometer, ATLAS Topographer, Iris Recognition system, Amadeus II™ Microkeratome and Pentacam eye scanner.

Because your safety is our number one priority!

At the IRIS Ophthalmology Clinic, we are committed to comply with high safety standards in surgery. We provide you with the following:

• Our experienced nursing staff and certified ophthalmic technicians follows strict sterilization procedures as recommended in large hospitals; they also received complete training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
• An operating room equipped with humidity and temperature control to provide complete environment stability and ensure the effectiveness of the laser beam
• The stability of our surgical instruments, supported by an emergency UPS power backup system, allows for uninterrupted treatment in case of a power failure

Because IRIS gets involved in research and training!

A full time statistician allows the IRIS Ophthalmology Clinic (IOC) to track the results of every surgery and follow up examination in order to constantly check our laser's accuracy and maintain our exacting standards. We are the only privately operated facility to receive the green light for a health protection branch study which is being conducted on our presbyopia treatment. Trialing of diagnostic equipment is available to us because we are able to accurately track our results and publish them.

The IRIS Ophthalmology Clinic, in affiliation with Pacific University College of Optometry in Oregon, is now offering a Residency Program for optometrists. This one year residency provides accelerated learning in primary eyecare with emphasis on refractive surgery.
