First Meeting of German-speaking SCHWIND Users

Wow-effect for around 50 SCHWIND users from Germany, Austria and Switzerland in the new show room

High above the rooftops of Kleinostheim, in the new SCHWIND company building, numerous SCHWIND users arrived on Friday afternoon of November 9, 2018.

In the new, state-of-the-art SCHWIND showroom, personal encounters took place between long-time SCHWIND users and new members of the SCHWIND family. They all have in common the enthusiasm for refractive surgery and state-of-the-art technologies from SCHWIND, which is also reflected in the new show room.

The program included a presentation by Amanda Carones, co-founder and CEO of Eligite Srl, who outlined concrete solutions for successful practice management with satisfied patients. The early evening ended with a guided tour through the new, enlarged R & D department and thereafter with dinner at the nearby Seehotel Niedernberg.

On Saturday, an invaluable transfer of knowledge between the SCHWIND users was paramount to the event. The varied program included lectures and case presentations on SmartSurfACE, LASIK, KPL and Customized treatments. The discussions between the experts were so lively that even the lunch break had to be deferred. The workshops in the afternoon were exciting. The participants showed great interest in the first results and experiences with the SCHWIND femtosecond laser. We were particularly proud that our users emphasized the excellent advice and support in the treatment planning by SCHWIND.

The first German SCHWIND user meeting offered the opportunity for an intensive personal exchange between the SCHWIND users and showed that the SCHWIND family means much more than knowledge transfer between experts. At SCHWIND, considerable importance is always placed on personal contacts and networking of SCHWIND users as well.
