Chengdu Aidi Eye Hospital

Chengdu Aidi Eye Hospital: A Benchmark for Treating Complex Eye Diseases and Managing Visual Health in Southwest China

I. Hospital Overview

Chengdu Aidi Eye Hospital is a tertiary-level ophthalmic specialty hospital approved by the Sichuan Provincial Health Commission. It is part of the nationally renowned Aidi Eye Hospital Group, a leading ophthalmic chain covering Sichuan, Chongqing, Yunnan, Guizhou, and surrounding regions. Guided by the core service principles of “Precision, Safety, and Warmth,” the hospital focuses on three key areas: treatment of complex eye diseases, myopia prevention and control in adolescents, and comprehensive visual health management across the entire lifespan. Integrating medical care, teaching, research, and prevention, it serves as the Southwest Region's referral center for complex eye diseases, a demonstration base for adolescent myopia prevention and control, and an international platform for ophthalmic exchange and cooperation.

The hospital currently operates two core campuses: the main hospital (No. 30, Mianxianqiao Street, Wuhou District) and the High-Tech Campus (No. 69, Tianfu 3rd Street, High-Tech Zone). With a total floor area exceeding 30,000 square meters, it offers over 200 inpatient beds, handles more than 500,000 outpatient visits annually, and performs over 30,000 surgeries per year (with complex procedures accounting for over 20%). As a teaching hospital for Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and North Sichuan Medical College, the hospital collaborates with leading domestic ophthalmic institutions such as West China Hospital's Ophthalmology Department and Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center. It has adopted the international JCI accreditation standards (for healthcare quality and safety management systems), establishing itself as a “technical high ground” and “service benchmark” for private ophthalmic care in Southwest China.

II. Technical Advantages: Focusing on Complex Cases, Leading the Frontier of Visual Health

Guided by the philosophy of “building the hospital on technology and strengthening it through innovation,” Aidi Eye Hospital has developed multiple nationally leading technical advantages in core areas, including:

• Precision Refractive Surgery: Offering full-femtosecond SMILE 3.0, half-femtosecond FS-LASIK, and ICL lens implantation (for high myopia/ astigmatism), and corneal cross-linking (for keratoconus control). We employ personalized ablation plans (e.g., wavefront-guided, pachymetry-guided), achieving correction precision of 0.01D (equivalent to 1/70th the thickness of a human hair). Postoperative visual acuity attainment exceeds 99%, with annual procedure volume surpassing 8,000 cases.

• Minimally Invasive Cataract Surgery: Utilizing Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery (FLACS) combined with multifocal/trifocal IOL implantation, this approach overcomes traditional surgical limitations to simultaneously address cataracts, myopia, and presbyopia. Patients regain high-definition vision within 24 hours post-op. Success rates exceed 98% for complex cases, including elderly patients (>90 years old) and those with cataracts complicated by diabetes/hypertension.

• Pediatric Strabismus, Amblyopia, and Myopia Prevention: Implementing a comprehensive “screening-diagnosis-intervention-follow-up” management system, offering integrated prevention strategies including orthokeratology (OK lenses), defocus-inducing spectacles, and low-concentration atropine. • Pediatric Strabismus and Amblyopia Correction: Utilizing cutting-edge techniques like 3D multimedia training and visual nerve rehabilitation, achieving over 95% success rate in strabismus correction surgery and 85% cure rate for amblyopia.

• Treatment of Complex Retinal Diseases: For conditions like diabetic retinopathy (DR), retinal detachment, macular holes, and choroidal neovascularization (CNV), we perform vitrectomy (PPV), anti-VEGF injections, and photodynamic therapy (PDT). Combined with precise diagnostics like OCTA (optical coherence tomography angiography) and fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA). Our effective vision preservation rate ranks among the highest in Southwest China.

III. Leading Specialties: Comprehensive Care for a Closed-Loop Eye Health System

The hospital focuses on meeting the needs of “all age groups and all types of eye diseases,” building a discipline system characterized by “strong specialties and advanced techniques”:

• Core Leading Specialties:

• Refractive Surgery Department: Among the first in Southwest China to perform all-femtosecond laser procedures, specializing in high/extreme myopia correction and personalized treatment plans for patients with thin corneas. Annual surgical volume ranks among the highest in Sichuan Province.

• Cataract Specialty: Equipped with the LenSx femtosecond laser cataract surgery system, performing multifocal/extended-range intraocular lens implantation to achieve clear vision at all distances—near, intermediate, and far.

• Retinal Diseases: Focuses on complex conditions including diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment, and macular degeneration. Collaborates with West China Hospital's Retinal Disease Center to establish a “green channel” for referral of complex cases.

• Pediatric Ophthalmology: Designated as Sichuan Province's Youth Myopia Prevention and Control Base. Provides orthokeratology (OK lens) fitting, strabismus and amblyopia correction, and pediatric visual development assessments, serving over 20,000 children annually.

• Specialized Clinics:

• Ocular Surface & Corneal Diseases: Performs corneal transplants (penetrating/lamellar), corneal collagen cross-linking, and dry eye SPA therapy (OPT intense pulsed light, meibomian gland massage), with over 200 corneal transplant surgeries annually.

• Glaucoma Specialty: Utilizes minimally invasive techniques, including glaucoma drainage implant/valve placement and selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) to provide personalized treatment for open-angle and angle-closure glaucoma.

IV. Department Structure: Comprehensive Services Addressing Diverse Needs

Departmental structure aligns with the comprehensive “prevention-diagnosis-treatment-rehabilitation” eye care continuum, forming an integrated service system comprising “specialty clinics + specialized examination centers + surgical centers + inpatient wards”:
