Innovation Highlights
- Myopia has become a significant public health challenge in China, particularly among children and adolescents, characterized by early onset, high prevalence, and rapid progression. Without effective intervention, myopia can progress to high myopia, significantly increasing the risk of irreversible202505 / 16
- Recently, Sun Yat-sen University (SYSU) released its "Announcement on Commending the 2024 Students of the Year," with the High-Precision Ophthalmic Surgical Robot R&D Team—recommended by Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center (ZOC)—earning a place on this prestigious list. Dr. Xu Andi (team member) duri202504 / 18
- Intraocular lens (IOL) decentration and tilt are significant factors affecting visual quality after cataract surgery. Highly myopic eyes face a particularly high risk of clinically significant IOL decentration (≥0.4 mm) and tilt (≥7°) following cataract surgery. Previous results from a randomize202504 / 17
- As the only organ in the human body where nerves and blood vessels can be directly observed in vivo, the eye serves as a unique "window" into systematic health. With the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) and ophthalmic imaging technology, this distinct advantage of the eye as a senti202504 / 11
- Within the strategic blueprint of "Strengthening Primary Care" outlined at the Third Session of the 14th National People's Congress, the key to addressing weak primary healthcare resources lies in leveraging the fulcrum of medical digital transformation. As national efforts accelerate the reform of202503 / 29
- On January 20, 2025, the top-tier international ophthalmology journal Ophthalmology published online an original research article by Professor Xiulan Zhang’s team from the Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sen University, titled “Longitudinal Changes of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer and Ganglion Cell202501 / 25
- Amblyopia, a common developmental eye disorder, is standardly treated with a combination of refractive correction and necessary occlusion therapy (Figure 1). However, even with adherence to this gold-standard treatment, patients may still experience residual visual impairment. In recent years, the e202501 / 22
- Commemorating the 125th Anniversary of Professor Chen Yaozhen's Birth Professor Chen Yaozhen, also known as Eugene Chan (December 1899 – May 1986), a native of Taishan, Guangdong, was an ophthalmologist, National First-Grade Professor, doctoral supervisor, one of the founders of modern ophthal202412 / 24
- On the morning of October 22, 2024, Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center (ZOC) of Sun Yat-sen University held a press conference at its Zhujiang New Town Campus to announce its latest research findings. The team led by Professor Yang Huasheng from ZOC, in collaboration with Professor Qian Jiang's team fr202410 / 23
- The molecular mechanisms underlying retinal neural development and regeneration are complex, involving DNA variation, epigenetic modifications, RNA transcription, and splicing. Integrated multi-omics analysis is considered an effective approach to decipher the molecular mechanisms of neural stem c202409 / 16
