Ophthalmic Foundation of Los Andes

Chile’s leading ophthalmic organization in Los Andes organized an invitation-only ophthalmic event which brought together the foremost global experts in the world of ophthalmology and refractive surgery

With his presence, Dr. Jankov enhanced this jubilee occasion marking the 20th anniversary of the formation of this most important of Chilean ophthalmic organizations, by lecturing a full auditorium on ‘Combined treatments of Topography-guided PRK’, ‘Ultra B2 as a treatment for keratoconus’ and ‘Refractive Surgery: Choosing the right treatment for each patient’. Dr. Jankov explained the significance of these appearances emphasizing that it is extremely important for any professional to keep himself continually informed in any aspect regarding technology in laser-guided refractive surgery, but that it is also important to keep up a communicative relationship with his patients, to show interest in him because in that way the patient is sure, not only of his decision to undergo surgery but is also sure of the surgeon with whom he is trusting his eyesight, which is crucial. He added that he was pleased that his colleagues throughout the world felt this way.
