Expression of interest for clinical observerships

You are warmly invited to observe our ophthalmologists at a Vision Eye Institute clinic. This is a great opportunity to be exposed to a wide variety of cases and collaborate with our doctors, as well as understand the patient journey at our clinics.

Optometrists of all levels of experience are welcome, including students, graduates and more established practitioners.

Note: Observation sessions are only offered in states where Vision Eye Institute has clinics.

🌏 A milestone worth celebrating – over 10 mil $🌏 A milestone worth celebrating – over 10 million eyes worldwide have been treated using SMILE and SMILE pro laser eye surgery! And we’ve been right there in the middle of the action, providing Australians with access to advanced vision correction technology for over 30 years. A decade ago, Vision Eye Institute introduced one of the country's first Zeiss VISUMAX 500 lasers for SMILE in its Chatswood laser suite. They were among the first again with the more advanced VISUMAX 800 laser, with A/Prof Michael Lawless becoming the first ophthalmologist in Australia and New Zealand to perform SMILE pro. SMILE pro is renowned for being one of the gentlest procedures for correcting refractive errors, including short-sightedness and astigmatism, and is backed by well over a decade of data. Find out how we can help your vision by booking a free laser assessment with one of our friendly optometrists or orthoptists. 🔗 LINK IN BIO #SMILE #SMILEpro #ophthalmology #eyespecialist #lifestyle #seeingisbelieving #lasereyesurgery #visioneyeinstitute #bettervision #seebetter #visioncorrection #laservisioncorrection #seemoreoftheworld #eyesurgeon #eyesurgery #eyehealth #vision #clearvision #freedomfromglasses #visionforlife$

KeraNatural is a new corneal allogenic intracorneal ring segment (#CAIRS) product for the treatment of #keratoconus. It uses allograft tissue or donor tissue to create natural corneal rings - these biocompatible rings can reduce the risk of post-operative rejection, infection and corneal melt compared to synthetic versions. Dr Huynh, a corneal, refractive and cataract surgeon at our Hurstville clinic, used the VISUMAX 800 femtosecond laser to create channels in the cornea before inserting the KeraNatural segments. Reshaping the cornea can improve vision and reduce the need to wear, or increase tolerance to, contact lenses or glasses. VEI orthoptists Elena Binios and Kathryn Rizk, and Zeiss representative Jacqui Hannah, supported Dr Huynh on the day. #VisionEyeInstituteHurstville #TransformingLives #Cornea #Vision #ICRS$

A special holder is used to prevent your eyelids from closing when blinking. Plus, the laser has advanced alignment technology that actually tracks every eye movement, ensuring the laser remains perfectly focused. Refractive Surgeon Prof Colin Chan, from our Chatswood clinic, explains in more detail 👆🏻 #TransformingLives #SeeMoreOfTheWorld #VisionCorrection #LaserVisionCorrection$
