Cemoa Hospital Dia De Olhos

What Cemoa Hospital Dia De Olhos does

CEMOA — Centro de Microcirurgia Ocular de Atibaia, operating as Cemoa Hospital Dia de Olhos — is a privately held Brazilian ophthalmology day hospital founded in 2015 and headquartered in Atibaia, São Paulo. It delivers comprehensive subspecialty eye care, including cataract surgery (with premium intraocular lenses), laser refractive surgery (LASIK/PRK-class), retina, glaucoma, cornea, pediatric ophthalmology, strabismus, neuro-ophthalmology, and ocular plastic procedures. The facility operates as a Hospital Dia model in which patients receive treatment and are discharged the same day, with private recovery rooms on site.

The clinical platform is built on advanced imported equipment: the FEMTOSECOND Z8 from Ziemer (Switzerland), described as the only such unit in greater São Paulo; VICTUS laser from Bausch & Lomb; INFINITI and CENTURION-ALCON phacoemulsification systems; and OCT Cirrus 5.000 from Zeiss, which does not require pupil dilation. The medical team of 14 subspecialist ophthalmologists is coordinated by Dr. Gilberto Akio Shimoda (CRM-SP 48.898), who also invented and registered the SHIMODA BUBBLE TORIC MARKER, a bubble-level surgical marker for toric lens implantation that is also commercialized in the USA.

CEMOA generates revenue from professional services — consultations, diagnostic examinations, and surgical procedures — billed through 19 health insurance partnerships (Amil, Bradesco, Sulamerica, Unimed, among others) and private payments. The company is privately held under Brazilian private law (CNPJ 67.160.234/0001-77), is founder/physician-owned, has no external institutional investors, and conducts no public reporting of revenue or headcount. Marketing is conducted through educational eBooks, a YouTube video series, Facebook, Instagram, and direct appointment booking via phone and WhatsApp.

Others

• Bausch + Lomb: Global ophthalmic company whose VICTUS femtosecond platform was previously deployed at CEMOA. Adjacent enabler rather than competitor, but its laser roadmap shapes CEMOA's premium cataract offering.
