The Laser Myopia Correction Center, established in 1995, is one of the earliest medical institutions in China to perform laser refractive surgery. Supported by the Ophthalmology Diagnosis and Treatment Center of The Second Norman Bethune Hospital of Jilin University, the department continuously updates its technical equipment and surgical methods to meet the high demands of patients for visual quality.

In 2011, our hospital became the first in China to introduce the German Carl Zeiss VisuMax femtosecond laser system. Currently, the volume of Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE) procedures ranks first in Northern China (north of Beijing), with outstanding postoperative outcomes and advantages. In 2015, we further upgraded our excimer laser equipment to the American Alcon WaveLight EX500, which signifies that our department now possesses the world's most advanced femtosecond and excimer laser systems. This allows us to perform various surgical techniques tailored to the individual eye conditions and needs of different patients, underscoring our international leadership in surgical equipment and technology.

The center is a comprehensive department integrating medical treatment, teaching, and scientific research. It boasts strong technical expertise and a talented team. Adhering to the patient-centered service philosophy, the center demonstrates the unique social value of a teaching hospital through exceptional medical skills, a spirit of scientific innovation, and a dedication to research. Members of the center have frequently participated in overseas academic visits and high-level domestic and international exchanges. They have also organized and hosted numerous continuing medical education programs and technical training sessions at both national and provincial levels. Over the past five years, center members have led over 10 scientific research projects and 2 educational reform projects, authored one clinical book, published more than 30 professional academic papers, and won one provincial-level second prize for scientific and technological progress. The center continues to lead the development of refractive surgery.
