He also received training at the Moorfields Eye Hospital and the Tennant Eye Institute.
In 2001, Dr Ho founded Clearvision Eye Clinic & LASIK Centre in Singapore, dedicated towards quality and safety in LASIK surgery. And in Nov 2004, Dr. Ho began performing the flapless and bladeless laser vision correction procedure, epi-LASIK.
Since 2005, Dr. Tony Ho has been certified to implant both the Artisan Veriscyce and the Star Visian ICL – the two FDA approved ICL brands in the market. Besides publishing numerous scientific papers and presentations, Dr. Ho has also published five books, one of which – The Complete Eye Care Book – in 1994 received a National Book Development Council Award and sold out its published run of 8,000 books within a year. In 1990, Dr. Ho published a scientific paper describing a method of laser iridotomy for glaucoma management, that is now widely employed by doctors around the world as the de-facto standard of iridotomies in dark brown irises.
Always embracing change and innovation, Dr. Ho has been a strong advocate of flapless, bladeless laser vision correction as a safe way for patients to achieve their dream of clear vision.
In 2019, Dr. Ho made the long-awaited decision to undergo lasik surgery himself.
Having personally performed lasik on tens of thousands of eyes, Dr. Ho decided to undergo the procedure himself.
And having gone through the entire lasik experience, Dr. Ho has made further improvements to the healing process for his patients, allowing for an even more comfortable and smoother recovery.
Today, as the founder and main eye doctor of Clearvision Eye Clinic & LASIK Centre, Dr. Tony Ho continues to help his patients see clearly, safely through flapless, bladeless procedures like Safe Sight TransPRK and ReLEx SMILE. He also sees patients with eye diseases such as glaucoma and cataracts, and helps young patients with controlling their myopia progression.
