Where Tradition Meets Modern Ophthalmology

The homeland of the legendary Huli Wigmen, with their traditional wigs and intricate face paint, is one of the most fascinating regions in Papua New Guinea. Colourful ceremonies, stunning landscapes and remote mountain villages characterise the lives of the people – as does the challenge of gaining access to modern medical care.

With the delivery of our FLAIR P8 to the Hela Provincial Health Authority (Hela PHA) in Tari, state-of-the-art surgical microscopy is making its way into the highlands. The microscope supports the surgical team in a wide range of eye surgery procedures and lays the foundation for precise treatments of the highest standard.

Can advanced ophthalmic surgery reach even the most remote corners of the world? With dedicated medical teams and the right technology, it can.
