Laser Vision Specialists
Beginnings
Laser Vision Specialists is the group of fellowship-trained refractive surgery consultants who staff the Vision Laser Center of the St. Luke’s Eye Institute at St. Luke’s Medical Center – Bonifacio Global City (BGC). The group provides the full continuum of corneal and refractive surgical care — from advanced laser vision correction to phakic intraocular lens implantation — within one of the country’s leading tertiary academic medical centers.
WHERE
The Laser Vision Specialists practice is based at the Vision Laser Center of the St. Luke’s Eye Institute, located on the second floor, within St. Luke’s Medical Center – Bonifacio Global City (BGC), Rizal Drive corner 32nd Street and 5th Avenue, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig City 1634, Metro Manila, Philippines.
The Eye Institute occupies a dedicated subspecialty floor within the SLMC-BGC building and is also known as the Tan Eng Gee Eye Institute.
WHEN
The refractive surgery program of St. Luke’s Medical Center has been in continuous operation since the year 2000, when the Vision Laser Center was established at the Quezon City campus.
Operations expanded to the Global City campus, with the Vision Laser Service at Global City formally organized beginning 2007 and full surgical activity at the BGC laser suite underway by November 2009, when the first VisuMax Femtosecond Laser training course was conducted on-site.
