Efen, the “sentinel” of the epidemic: I was forced to have an operation that I could never do

The company’s first ever “IOL” surgery was performed at Wuhan Aier Eye Hospital on February 15, 2012. On February 15, Ai Fen posted a long article on Weibo, saying that the verification report on Ai Fen’s treatment process made by Aier Eye on January 4 this year had 10 major inaccuracies, and that she had been given a “surgery that could never be done” by the hospital.

On her Weibo page, Ai Fen listed ten inaccuracies in the report of Aier Eye Care, in which she repeatedly said that Aier Eye Care confused concepts. For example, it directly states that Ai Fen had cataract surgery on May 26, 2002, but deliberately ignores that Ai Fen went to Aier Eye on May 21 because of “vision loss”; the real cause of Ai Fen’s vision loss is “fundus disease” and Aier Eye Hospital imposes “vision loss” on Ai Fen. The real cause of the vision loss, “fundus disease”, was confused with “cataract lesion”, which was imposed on Affin.

The notice also stated that the indications and contraindications for the surgery did not mention “femtosecond laser and trifocal lens”, which confused “ordinary cataract surgery” with the “femtosecond laser-assisted trifocal lens implantation” performed by Aier Eye Hospital. The latter has more specific requirements for the eyes. The latter has more specific requirements for the eyes, and Effen has a number of absolute contraindications to trifocal lens and femtosecond surgery, including iris adhesions, severe optic nerve atrophy, irregular corneal astigmatism, corneal trauma, high myopia, and pupil distortion.

Ai Fen believes that Aier Eye Hospital forced her to undergo “absolutely no surgery”.

In addition, the hospital did not describe the degree of cloudiness of Ai Fen’s lens in the report, and confused the cloudy lens with Ai Fen’s almost normal lens; the report stated that “the fundus examination before and after surgery showed high myopia fundus changes,” but Ai Fen refuted that the fundus was not examined either before or after surgery; and challenged some of the photos in the report. The report is suspected of being falsified.

On the 2nd of this month, Ai Fen filed a report with the Wuhan health Care Commission, asking the hospital to provide the Commission with the original medical records, a short video of the surgery, the three original photos on the announcement of Ai Fen, and the hard drive and charge details of the pre-operative examination photos that Wang Yong, the vice president who performed the surgery, claimed to have deleted in order to clarify the responsibility of the incident. However, the hospital was only willing to provide three public photos and the details of the charges. The hospital had already questioned the hospital’s intention to conceal the truth at that Time.

On Feb. 9, Ai Fen tweeted that the matter has become very clear today: “My vision loss is caused by retinal disease at the bottom of my eyes, not by crystal problems, and there is no need for cataract surgery. If I had not had the surgery, my tragedy could have been avoided”.

She also said that before this incident, many people, including herself, would not have believed that Aier Hospital would intentionally create “cataracts that meet the surgical guidelines” in order to increase the volume of surgeries performed. “But it did happen to me. It also happened to some other ordinary people who don’t know anything about Medicine. Not long ago, a middle-aged male patient from out of town told me that his medical record clearly stated that he had 1.0 vision in his left eye, but after only 21 days he was admitted to the hospital with 0.15 combined with a severe cataract, and was quickly operated on. What a crazy greedy move! This is a human eye! Alas! I wonder how many other similar things are happening every day. I have been working in public hospitals for decades and I feel deeply that this kind of behavior is really terrible!”

During the outbreak of the Epidemic in Wuhan last year, Ai Fen, a colleague of “whistle blower” Li Wenliang, gave an exclusive interview to the mainland media and revealed that Wuhan Central Hospital forced all doctors and nurses from top to bottom to conceal the epidemic, even Family members could not say anything, and the price of concealing the epidemic was that a large number of doctors and nurses, patients were infected and many colleagues, including Li Wenliang The cost of concealing the epidemic was a large number of infections among doctors, patients and colleagues, including Li Wenliang. The article became the most deleted article at the time, and netizens edited the article into multiple languages such as Martian, Korean and Japanese to avoid censorship. In the article, Ai Fen said that she was the one who reported the suspected SARS patient to Li Wenliang, and she called herself the “sentry”. After the sensation caused by the above article, Ai Fen was asked by the hospital and Wuhan authorities to keep quiet.

In addition to Ai Fen, Li Wenliang’s widow, who returned Home with her two children, and Li Wenliang’s Parents are still under surveillance and are forbidden to speak out. According to foreign media, the doctors of Wuhan Central Hospital were quoted as saying that the passports and Hong Kong and Macau permits of all doctors in the hospital have been seized, but no official explanation was given as to why.
