Extremely honored to receive a Top 5 poster award from the Heart of America Eyecare Congress for my case report on Topical Losartan for Treating Corneal Scarring. A huge accomplishment early on in my career that would have not been possible without the support of my fellow staff at Associated Eye Care. T-minus 5 more months of residency! #NeverStopLearning
Curious about what SMILE pro laser eye surgery involves?
If so, Dr Tess Huynh has you covered. Check out this video where she performs small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) surgery using VISUMAX 800 technology – a bladeless, one-step, one-laser procedure.
Here, you can see Dr Huynh access an opening in the cornea (less than 3 mm) and remove corneal tissue with extreme precision to correct the patient's vision: https://loom.ly/2yUWx0g
This technology halves the laser time to 10 seconds, helping to reduce patient anxiety during laser eye surgery – so, the procedure is over before you know it.

An important reminder from the Eye Bank Association of America and the American Academy of Ophthalmology about #eyesafety as we head into the July 4th holiday.
Here are their 5 tips to protect your #vision!
1. All those lighting fireworks AND bystanders should wear eye protection meeting the criteria set by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
2. If attending a fireworks show, stay at least 500 feet away from where they’re being set off.
3. Do not let children light, handle, or play with fireworks.
4. Also use caution when using sparklers – at 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit, they can easily cause burns and fires.
5. If you sustain a firework injury to your eye, report immediately to an Emergency Room. Do not rub, rinse, apply pressure, or try to remove any object from your eye.
As we approach the 4th of July holiday, we remind you that fireworks can be dangerous!
We join with American Academy of Ophthalmology in reminding you to practice eye safety as you celebrate!
Use these 5 tips to protect your vision this Independence Day!
