Dr Cheung, Dr Yu, Dr Ross, Dr Hooper and our practice manager attended the annual RANZCO Congress in Melbourne over the weekend. It was a fantastic opportunity to learn, connect and stay up to date with the latest in eye care.

We explored a wide range of topics — from cybersecurity and advances in medical AI, to practical tips for improving sustainability in operating theatres, and updates on ocular side effects of Dupilumab (commonly used by other specialists such as dermatologists).

A special congratulations to Dr Ross, who presented a poster featuring a case from our practice and also presented an Award at the opening ceremony.

Overall, it was a wonderful weekend of learning, collaboration and professional growth.

Dr Ross: I was in Laos in October with Sight For All at the National Ophthalmology Centre in Vientiane. Our focus was on training three paediatric ophthalmologists to improve eye care for children across the country. I taught strabismus surgery and helped out in clinics — patients came not only from Vientiane but also from rural provinces, some travelling up to two days to reach us.

It was an incredibly rewarding experience to help build local capacity and see the impact firsthand. 🇱🇦💙

✈️ Flying after surgery? It’s a question we’re often asked—especially by patients planning holidays or travelling from afar.

Yesterday, Dr Stringfellow operated on a lovely patient who, together with her husband, flew here in their own light plane from a remote property over 600km away in northwest NSW.

After a smooth and successful cataract surgery, she was thrilled to be able to fly home the very next day! 👏

At Visionary, we’re proud to care for patients from near and far—helping them see the world more clearly, wherever home may be. 💙
