HCM CITY — DKSH Business Unit Healthcare, a strategic healthcare solutions partner and leading provider of Market Expansion Services across Asia and beyond, signed a cooperation agreement with the Myopia Control Center of Medical Saigon Eye Hospital System at the Mắt Sài Gòn Annual Optometry Conference 2026, themed 'Myopia Control 2026'. 

The agreement covers a comprehensive partnership between both parties, including supply, distribution, technical services, and clinical capability-building activities to support the Myopia Control Center’s specialised paediatric myopia management program in Việt Nam.

Short-sightedness among children is one of Việt Nam’s most pressing eye health challenges, with refractive error rates among school-age children continuing to rise in line with global trends.

Myopia control is an emerging approach that goes beyond conventional vision correction, it requires evidence-based, long-term treatment strategies grounded in ocular biometric data, enabling systematic monitoring, personalised treatment planning, and outcome tracking through specialised clinical reporting.

Under the agreement, the Myopia Control Center will prioritise the use of Topcon Healthcare’s myopia management equipment and DKSH’s services across its existing facilities, as well as future sites. As the authorised exclusive distributor of Topcon Healthcare in Việt Nam, DKSH supplies the MYAH Myopia Management device - an integrated toolkit for comprehensive examination, treatment planning, and myopia progression monitoring.

Beyond supply and installation, DKSH provides medical consultation, technology transfer, and a full range of technical services and after-sales support in accordance with international standards, ensuring partners are fully equipped with the knowledge and tools to deliver internationally benchmarked eye care to Vietnamese patients.

Huỳnh Lê Đức, Group Chief Executive Officer of Medical Saigon Group, said: “Myopia control must be approached as a long-term clinical journey, combining scientific foundations, real-world data, and standardised practice.

"Through this conference and partnership, we aim to create a platform where specialists can share experience, align on emerging evidence, and build a rigorous model for paediatric myopia management in Việt Nam.

Tạ Minh Cường, General Manager, Business Unit Healthcare, DKSH Vietnam, added: “At DKSH, guided by our mission to deliver healthcare for all, we go beyond distribution.

"Through this partnership, we believe short-sightedness in children can be systematically screened and meaningfully controlled.

"As the exclusive partner of Topcon Healthcare in Việt Nam, we bring a comprehensive range of technology, training and support to help make evidence-based myopia care a consistent standard across Myopia Control Center’s network.” — VNS
