In the world of surgery, precision is not merely a virtue—it is a necessity.
Today, we speak with Dr Samuel Espías, Maxillofacial Surgeon and Blepharoplasty Specialist, about his experience with the Ergo 4X loupes and the Orchid illumination system.
Each procedure demands not only knowledge and skill, but also tools that enable the surgeon to achieve millimetric levels of detail. This is particularly true in medical specialities such as blepharoplasty, where delicate structures are involved and aesthetic outcomes are highly visible, leaving no room for error.
In this context, technology plays a crucial role. Magnification solutions with surgical loupes have evolved to become indispensable allies, not only for enhancing the quality of the procedure, but also for safeguarding the wellbeing of the healthcare professional.
Dr Espías’ testimony not only offers a technical perspective, but also provides a reflection on how the appropriate use of technology can transform the experience in the operating theatre.
Interview with Dr Samuel Espias
Dr Espías, what led you to choose Víttrea as your ally in the operating theatre?
For two key reasons. First, for precision, as I consider myself highly perfectionist in every procedure, and Víttrea enables me to achieve the level of detail I seek. And second, for ergonomics: surgeons spend many hours operating, and having equipment that promotes good posture makes all the difference in the long term.
What would you highlight about the product?
The loupes are completely customised. In my case, since I wear glasses, the system was adapted exactly to my needs. It’s a piece of equipment that really adjusts to you, not the other way round.
And, what is your opinion of the team behind Víttrea?
The service is outstanding. Professional, yet very approachable. I was impressed that they travelled to my clinic to carry out a personalised fitting. That speaks volumes about their commitment to healthcare professionals.
Based on your experience, how does magnification impact your work?
Directly. My patients often comment on the quality of the sutures, and that is thanks to the magnification these loupes provide. The precision I achieve with Víttrea is evident in every detail.
My patients notice it: the quality of the suturing improves thanks to magnification. The difference lies in the details.
Dr Samuel Espías’ testimony reflects what many specialists in the surgical field already know: having high-precision tools not only improves clinical outcomes, but also enhances the surgeon’s experience in the operating theatre.
In an environment where pressure, high demands and time constraints are critical factors, finding equipment like Víttrea’s —committed, approachable, and willing to adapt to each surgeon’s real context— is a true asset.
With Víttrea, a synergy is created between technological innovation and personalised attention that not only supports medical practice but also elevates it. It’s a commitment to precision, comfort, and trust. Because when the surgeon feels supported, the patient senses it too. And that’s where the real difference begins.
