Considered Australia’s best ICL Surgeon – Dr Alison Chiu
A MONUMENTAL DAY IN VISION CORRECTION SURGERY
Dr Chiu performed the first implantation of the ICL Viva by @staarsurgical, a breakthrough solution for myopia and presbyopia (age-related near vision decline) for patients over 40, across Australia and New Zealand.
The announcement was made months after the procedures took place, as Dr Chiu intentionally allowed time to thoroughly follow up on patient outcomes and ensure the results stand the test of time beyond the immediate post-operative period.
It’s important to note that there has been Industry Support – from Device Technologies and Staar Surgical for innovating and backing this game-changing technology. Peer Guidance – A special thanks to Dr Scott Barnes for surgical wisdom and to Dr Bobby Ang for invaluable mentorship.
What makes the ICL Viva so revolutionary?
It leaves the cornea untouched, preserving future options for cataract surgery — a flexibility that other laser-based vision correction surgeries don’t offer. Laser eye surgery, while providing great results for the right patient, depends heavily on your surgeon’s skill and experience.
Dr Chiu is confident that Evo ICL Viva will change the landscape of presbyopia correction. Other alternative methods are Presbyond (trademark needed) and Presbymax (trademark needed), which can be discussed at your appointment. Please enquire with her rooms.
