MANILA, Philippines - He hui kauka i hoaaloha mai ko lākou wā kamaliʻi i waena o nā kumu he nui i kū ai ka Philippines i manawa kūpono e lilo i wahi nui no nā mākaʻikaʻi lapaʻau.
ʻO ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi lapaʻau ka poʻe e hele i nā ʻāina ʻē e hana i kahi kaʻina olakino i hana ʻia ma muli o ke kumu kūʻai ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi.
Ua kūkulu ʻia ka American Eye Center ma 1995 e nā kauka maka ʻo Jack Arroyo, ʻo Victor Jose Caparas, ʻo Cesar Ramon Espritu a me Benjamin Cabrera. Ua mākaukau nā ʻehā ʻehā i ka ophthalmology a ua hele no ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa hou ʻana ma aneʻi a ma nā ʻāina ʻē no kā lākou mea kōkua ophthalmologic - Arroyo ma ke ʻoki kino Keratorefractive; Cabrera i ka ʻike haʻahaʻa a me ka hoʻoponopono hou ʻana, nā maʻi kūwaho a me ka cataract; ʻO Caparas i ke kōlani a me nā ʻoki mua a me ka cataract; a ʻo Espiritu i ka palaoa, ka maʻi kūwaho a me ka uveitis.
Me ka mākaukau me kona mākaukau ponoʻī, ua hele ka ʻehā i ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa pūʻulu a i ka makahiki 1988 i hoʻokumu ʻia ai ka Associated Eye Specialists, ka mea e hoʻokele nei i ka American Eye Center.
I kona mau makahiki mua, he poʻe kamaʻāina kūloko ka hapa nui o ke kikowaena akā ʻaʻole hoʻi i hoʻi koke nā balikbayans a me nā haole, ʻo ka hapanui mai Guam, a me nā lālā o nā corps diplomatik i ka ʻāina i hoʻomaka e komo.
ʻO ka mea nui i hiki mai i nā mākaʻikaʻi lapaʻau ʻo ia ka uku haʻahaʻa o nā kaʻina hana lapaʻau like ʻole i ka ʻāina. ʻO kahi kahakaha Lasik ma aneʻi, no ka laʻana, e uku wale ana ma kahi o ka hapakolu o ke kumukūʻai no ke kaʻina hana like ma US, ma kahi o $ 2,500 no ka maka.
Ke hoʻohana nei ka American Eye Center i kahi hoʻolālā kikoʻī e komo i ka mākeke mākaʻikaʻi medial. ʻOiai he maʻi kona mai nā ʻāina ʻē aʻe, ʻo ia hoʻi ka US, ke kia nui nei nā hana o kēia kikowaena i nā mākeke Kepani, Kōlea a me Taiwanese.
Pili ke kikowaena i nā ala like ʻole no kēlā me kēia mākeke. ʻO kahi laʻana, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Arroyo e mau ana nā kamaʻilio me kahi hōkele nona Kepani ma Manila no kahi hoʻonohonoho e hoʻolauna i ka hale i nā mea kūʻai aku Iapana a hōʻoia iā lākou e hele mai i ka Philippines no ka lapaʻau ma ka American Eye Center.
ʻO ka American Eye Center, i hoʻomaka ma ke ʻano he kikowaena kikowaena, ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea mua i lawe mai i ka ʻāina i ka ʻenehana laser-Lasik.
ʻO ka hui, e ʻike nei i ka pono no ke kālepa ʻana, ua alualu kahi hoʻolaha hoʻolaha hou e hōʻike ana i nā hōʻike pilikino o ka poʻe i ʻike ʻia i ka palekana a me ka kūleʻa ʻana o kā lākou ʻoki ʻana laser ponoʻī. ʻO kēia me Pelekikena mua Fidel V. Ramos, Sen. Joker Arroyo (ka ʻanakala o Dr. Jack Arroyo), Lunakanawai Kiʻi ʻĀpana Hoʻokolokolo Kiʻekiʻena Adolfo S. Azcuna, waha ʻōlelo Pelekikena mua ʻo Fernando Barican, Meia ʻo Davao City Meia ʻo Rodrigo Duterte a me kekahi poʻe hōʻike biz.
"ʻO kā mākou papahana hoʻolaha a me ke kālepa ʻana i kā mākou ʻenehana ʻaʻole nā kauka," wahi a Arroyo, kahi hoa piha ma American Eye Center a me ka pelekikena o nā Associated Eye Specialists.
"Ke manaʻoʻiʻo nei mākou i ka loaʻa ʻana o ka poʻe i hoʻāʻo i ka ʻoki ʻana i ka laser e kamaʻilio e pili ana iā ia ke ala kūpono loa o ka hoʻolaha ʻana," hoʻohui ʻo ia. "Ma waho aʻe, waiwai nui kā mākou mau hiʻohiʻona e hana me ka manuahi."
Ua holo ka papahana: i ka manawa pōkole, hoʻomaka ka poʻe maʻi e komo i ke kaʻina hana.
I Nowemapa 2000, ke kime - a laila ua ulu a hui pū i kekahi mau kauka maka ʻē aʻe a me nā limahana lapaʻau - hoʻonui i kāna mōhai lawelawe mai kahi ʻoki kino wale nō e lilo i diagnostic, honua a me nā wahi ʻoki kino.
ʻO American Center Center, e like me kā Arroyo, i kēia manawa kekahi o nā kikowaena maka ʻelima kiʻekiʻe ma Asia a me No. 7 i ka honua e pili ana i ka helu o nā ʻoki ʻana o nā maka i hana ʻia. Ma ka hopena o 2007, ua hana ke kikowaena ma mua o 25,000 mau maka.
"Ma mua, he poʻe ʻelemakule ka hapanui o ko mākou poʻe maʻi, 60 mau makahiki a ʻoi paha. I kēia lā, ʻo ka poʻe ʻōpio - ʻo ia nō hoʻi i ka ʻumi o ko lākou mau makahiki ʻōpio - e hele i ke kikowaena no ka ʻoki ʻana o ka laser, "wahi āna.
ʻOiai ʻo kāna mau lawelawe ʻē aʻe (retinopathy diabetic, glaucoma degenerate macular e pili ana i ka makahiki, neuro ophthalmology, maʻi maʻi kūwaho, vison haʻahaʻa a me ophthalmology pediatric) - e ʻumeʻume nei i nā mea maʻi, 60 pākēneka o kā ʻAmelika Eye ʻoihana ʻo ia nō ka ʻoki ʻana o ka laser.
ʻO ka hoʻonui ʻana o ka lawelawe o ka American Eye Center a neʻe i ka Edsa Plaza Shangri-La Mall i manaʻo ʻia ka mākeke mākaʻikaʻi lapaʻau.
Hilinaʻi ʻo Arroyo i ka manawa kūpono i ka loaʻa ʻana i kahi ʻāpana o ka mākeke mākaʻikaʻi lapaʻau.
Loaʻa iā ia nā kumu āpau e manaʻoʻiʻo ai. Ua hoʻopukapuka ʻia ke kikowaena ma ke ʻano o ka ʻenehana ʻenehana a he keʻena hoʻokele hoʻokele lawelawe piha ia i ʻae ʻia e ka ʻOihana Ola a me ka ʻOihana ʻInikua Pilipino Corp. Aia nā kikowaena loiloi i kekahi mau haukapila nui ma Metro Manila.
Nui nā mea e pono ai e hana e hoʻokō i ka pahuhopu o ka hoʻolilo ʻana iā Pilipine i hub nui no nā poʻe mākaʻikaʻi olakino, e like me ka haʻi ʻana i ka hopohopo o ka poʻe malihini kipa e pili ana i ka palekana pilikino a me ka nele o nā pono hana, akā ʻo ka mea maikaʻi nā mea pāʻani ʻoihana pilikino, e like me ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, mai kali wale no ka hoʻonā ʻia ʻana o kēia mau pilikia, ke neʻe nei lākou a ke hana nei i kā lākou kuleana i ka ʻike ʻana i kēia hihiʻo no ka ʻāina.
