lifestyle No Comments »

With the “the largest set of LIVE connected health data in the country” and just shy of M in funding, b.well is a health tech startup on a mission to help health plans and employers do more with the abundance of health data their members and employees are creating. CEO Kristin Valdes stopped by the Atrium Health Backstage Studio at Healthdatapalooza to talk about the future for the startup and what her company is learning from looking at all that health data.

London Vision Clinic | ReLEx SMILE | Live laser eye surgery | Professor Dan Reinstein

In this video, Professor Dan Reinstein performs a ReLEx SMILE (small incision lenticule extraction) – a keyhole type of LASIK procedure – filmed in real-time to demonstrate the full 3 and-a-half minute procedure from multiple angles. The superior design and optical precision of the Carl Zeiss Meditec Visumax femtosecond makes it the only femtosecond laser that is accurate enough to perform laser eye surgery through a keyhole incision in the cornea without the need for creating a flap and disruption of the corneal nerves and tearfilm that results from flap creation in the standard LASIK technique. The patient is only in contact with the device is less than 40 seconds with extremely low contract force such that the patient feels effectively nothing, there are no red splodges (subconjunctival haemorages) left behind. From the surgeons’ standpoint the laser procedure is one step: contact with the patient cornea and lenticule creation. The accuracy of ReLEx SMILE has been shown to be higher than that of LASIK in that it is far more accurate for higher prescriptions, and ReLEx smile can perform treatment for myopia / short-sightedness from -1.00 to -10 and in some instances up to -14 D.
