In the 2020 Xiamen CCOS conference, Baiji ophthalmology signed a contract to become ZEISS China Clin

Bai Ji's body has a lot of aura, one of the most famous experts in myopia surgery, "Bai Ji Ring" inventor,...But I prefer to call him "a Chinese doctor speaking on an international stage".

Bai Jie away half a life, he put down "things" countless, which he was reluctant to part with the army, because there was born, grew up, from the army when soldiers, to the military school when a military doctor;Of course, he also gained a lot of praise, including the "Baiji Ring", the first refraction surgical instrument in Europe with an Asian name. Its application reduced a large number of complications of corneal refraction surgery and benefited patients all over the world, but these are not the most important things for Bai Ji. He told me:"When one day, you can stand on the forum representing the highest level of international ophthalmology and become a spokesman to show the development of Chinese ophthalmology to foreigners in a foreign language, and tell the world about the growth of Chinese ophthalmology, then you will truly appreciate the weight of the Five-Star Red Flag in your heart..."

Go abroad to see the "future" of refractive myopia

In 2004, for 20 years in the army hospital eye doctor white after the opportunity to communicate for the first time to go abroad, and to go to Paris for European conference on cataract refractive surgery (ESCRS), it is not easy for the strict management of army hospital, was in a critical period of ophthalmology refractive myopia surgery development, how to improve equipment, equipment performance,Refractive surgeons all over the world are paying attention to improving patients' postoperative visual quality and reducing surgical complications, and Dr. Bai Ji happens to be a fanatical researcher of myopia surgery.

"At that time, I had three ideas about going abroad. First, see what foreigners are doing.Because textbooks, magazines are the past tense, there may be some ongoing research in the magazine and textbook can not be seen, as a natural science research you have to keep curious;Second, will what I am studying be accepted in the future?Are we on the right track?And third, science is an international institution, and as a researcher you can't be limited by your national borders, and being involved in the discussion of corneal refractive surgery gives us an eye for the future direction of this field."

However, the first experience abroad did not go well."The most difficult part is the language," said Bai. "Although I have made some preparation before going out, speakers at international forums use a lot of colloquial language, even slang, in their speeches and communications.Not being able to fully understand directly affected the communication with others, and finding the opportunity to ask questions individually was the only way to solve the problem at that time."

Nevertheless, Bai Ji or with keen judgment to find some "direction"!

"LASIK surgery was first used in Europe and the United States. The procedure is to open the front fifth of the cornea to make a corneal flap, then complete the laser correction of refractive error, and finally the corneal flap back to the original position. The advantage of this technique is that patients have less pain after surgery and the problem of corneal scarring is solved.However, an open flap does not contribute to the biomechanics of the cornea after surgery, so the priority at that time was to make the flap thinner while maintaining its basic integrity.I and several professors in China found out that a French company called Moria had just developed a lamellar corneal knife called SBK, which can make the corneal flap as thin as possible."

Bai Ji and Professor Chen Yueguo of Peking University repeatedly applied to this French company, and finally became the earliest clinical research hospital in China. After returning to China, after repeated animal experiments, corpse eye operation and administrative approval, Bai Ji finally realized the first unit to complete the clinical application of SBK in China.

Three years later he took his eponymous patent to the international lecture hall

In the white led and driven by, from animal experiments to clinical practice, says moira company in 2007, officially opened to the technology, with the technology to improve the surgical curative effect and reduce complications, so get a nationwide promotion soon, his ohtsubo hospital most refractive surgery patients using this new technology,In addition, he has accumulated a large amount of clinical data. Therefore, France has set SBK Asia Pacific training center in Daping Hospital of Chongqing. Doctors and teams from Indonesia, South Korea, Vietnam, Thailand and other countries have visited and trained in Daping Hospital, and completed special training courses for large and medium-sized cities in China.

"That's what I wanted to do before I went out."White after the review of the summary.Since 2007, he has been invited to attend the European Congress on Cataract and Refractive Surgery and other ophthalmology forums every year as a guest speaker.Still, in his heart, he did not want to be left alone.

"We can't just sit side by side, we can't use whatever foreigners produce!Are there any elements with Chinese technical characteristics?Like making devices that are more responsive to the physiology of Asian people?"

White after said, people invented technologies from Europe and America are in accordance with the europeans eyes form to design, and most people in Europe and the corneal almost is round, and we are Asian, especially in east Asia are transversely elliptic, it's a problem, Europe and the United States imports of equipment cannot be entirely suitable for Chinese people's eyes, such complications more natural,So can we make a design that works for elliptical corneas?

It took only a few months for Bai Ji to design a device suitable for the corneal shape of East Asians on the knife invented by Europeans. However, the design was completed, the relevant patent was applied, and new problems arose. The production of the device required a grinding tool cost of 500,000 yuan."At that time, I thought it would be easy for the manufacturer to produce the mold, but the manufacturer directly replied that there should be a foolproof way to make money. Otherwise, if you pay 500,000 yuan for the mold, I would be a general doctor, and I would not be able to afford it."

In the end, Bai Ji had to find Moria Company in France again, but the communication was also difficult. The two sides exchanged numerous e-mails and interviewed Moria several times. Finally, Moria Company was finally convinced through clinical data.In Daping Hospital and Bai Ji "soaked" for half a month, 15 days to make the design into the finished product production drawings, in Bai Ji military style inspired, they returned to France immediately started, half a month to make the first batch of molds and put into animal experiments, the experiment was very smooth, soon applied in clinical, mass production and promotion.The French were so impressed by the technology that they first named the eye device Bai Ji Ring after an Asian.

Farewell to the military service to be a speaker on the platform of Chinese ophthalmology

He participated in international forums for the first time in 2004

In 2007, he went abroad again because of his rich experience in the application of new technologies in line with international standards and became the keynote speaker

In 2009, he stood on the lecture stage again, with a patent in his name

...

From following to participating, from participating to leading, Bai Ji left again and again, which showed the international ophthalmology community that China also has good doctors and advanced technology."Troops as far as possible, give me to go abroad the meeting communication convenience, remember the ESCRS meeting held in London in 2014, we first primer operation of water infiltration separation technology was invited to speak, then ohtsubo professor zhou Lin, dean of the hospital to go abroad the meeting places to me, once finished the lecture, when implemented!"

At the 2014 ESCRS conference in London, there were few papers on SMILE surgery.A French professor named David's paper attracted the attention of Dr. Bai Ji. The professor improved the basic and clinical series of studies and drew a conclusion, "SMILE surgery, laser scanning energy is lower, the efficacy will be better". Of course, the energy can not be too low, otherwise the lens can not be separated, how to solve?When everyone was discussing the solution, Bai Ji proposed: "Water infiltration separation, separation is difficult, water can reduce the separation resistance."Professor David was very interested in hearing this, and came down to Bai Ji for in-depth discussion and communication, to jointly study the necessity and possibility of low-energy water infiltration separation in SMILE surgery.

"Without going abroad, none of this would come out. Without standing on that podium, we would not be able to achieve our own impact on the international community.Every time I go to speak and hear the host introduce the next guest to be someone from China, I feel very excited."

"I am a veteran. I joined the army in February 1976. Both my parents are soldiers, and they were born and raised in the army compound."However, the soldiers who are being reorganized will be discharged from active service according to the PLA's arrangement. This will make it easier for them to go out and see the world and strengthen international exchanges."

In 2018, Dr. Bai Ji left Daping Hospital and established Baiji Ophthalmology Studio, but he continued to complete his favorite myopia surgery research. He went abroad, attended more academic lectures and exchanges, and got to know more experts and professors. However, front-line clinical work is the foundation and source of clinical research.A perfect clinical operation not only requires an excellent team, but also the most advanced complete equipment and management. Chongqing Optometric Eye Hospital, run by General Manager Li Ma, a former comrade in arms, has become the best cooperative unit.The summer vacation just past 2019 was Bai Ji's busiest summer vacation. He cooperated with his old colleague Li Ma and performed nearly 1,000 patients' surgeries in the 3-month fierce war. He participated in almost every operation personally and also participated in many academic exchange activities abroad.Due to the increasing number of operations, Baiji Studio's surgeries continue to enter the forefront of refractive surgery in China from quality to quantity.In order to give full play to the role of Baiji Studio and maximize the value of experts to serve patients, the Optometry Hospital even purchased the most advanced surgical equipment in China at a high cost.

"That's why I love working with Ari Sunshine for a long time."Bai Ji said, "I set a rule for myself when I founded the studio. Our goal is not to do a good job in one eye of one person, but not to do a bad job in each eye of one person."

Today, the cooperation between Bai Ji and his old colleague Li Ma has become a story in the industry. Airui Eye Hospital provides the most advanced surgical equipment and medical facilities, and Bai Ji Studio provides experts, teams and standardized process management."Flexibility, good equipment, and the goal of providing the best service are our strengths," Bai said.In the next step, Baiji decided to take the Optometry Hospital as the base to improve and establish a set of the most standardized surgical standards for ophthalmology and train more professional refractive surgeons.

In ESCRS in September this year, Dr. Bai Ji continued to participate in the meeting as a speaker, and also participated in the Sino-European expert forum as a keynote speaker. However, the most different thing is that there are some new faces in the team this time. Bai Ji's studio was presented in Paris, France, and they still need to go on.To honor, to dignity, to show the wisdom of the Chinese nation...

In the process of talking with Professor Bai Ji, you can hear his heart beating like a child's heart, and feel his direct and free and easy.Had it not been for the interview, Bai Ji rarely went to look back on his past glory, for him, thought is young and bigger dreams are still ahead.

【2012 ESCRS conference in Milan, Italy, introduced the global promotion and application of Baiji Ring. 】

[Baiji Ring was first presented at the 2009 ESCRS meeting. The improved device showed improved efficacy and fewer complications compared to conventional devices.]
