Visare Hospital de Olhos modernizes ophthalmology surgical center
Visare Hospital de Olhos has completed a modernization of its ophthalmology surgical center. The upgrade includes the integration of high-resolution microscopes, lasers, and the latest generation of phacoemulsifiers to improve precision and safety in procedures involving cataracts, the retina, and glaucoma.
Financial director Márcio Rodrigues stated that the new technology provides surgeons with more detailed visualization and enhanced control, facilitating less invasive techniques and potentially faster patient recovery. The investment comes amid significant global and national demand for eye care. The World Health Organization estimates that 2.2 billion people live with vision impairment, while the Brazilian Council of Ophthalmology notes that Brazil requires roughly 600,000 cataract surgeries annually, a volume that exceeds current performance.
