How far is the gap between China's equipment for "laser surgery" and the world's most advanced?

There is no gap between domestic state-of-the-art equipment and foreign ones. The gap is that a machine in the United States may be scrapped after 1,000 surgeries, which means that a machine in one of our country's third-class hospitals will no longer be used after a year at most. In China, a machine should be used for more than 5 years or even up to 20 years, or at least 10,000 surgeries. Comparing the two compartments, the results are absolutely different, and the gap is huge. Because the longer a machine is used, the later the surgery, the greater the error.

Of course, this is also limited by our economic conditions. For our hospital, we can't compete with foreign countries. A set of the latest surgical equipment costs 5-6 million yuan, and the equipment has to be phased out periodically, but not that quickly.

Even though we are in a market economy now, it is still up to the conscience of the doctor to ensure the health of the patient. A set of equipment is expensive, and the cost of a surgery is charged at about 6,000 yuan. Some people will consider from the perspective of recovering costs and earning profits, so that every patient who comes to the consultation to do surgery, in fact, this is not right. I suggest that patients with more than 800 degrees of myopia carefully consider whether to operate.
