Risk of full femtosecond surgery

As a common method of myopia correction, full femtosecond surgery has also been widely used in Guangdong Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. However, like any other surgery, full femtosecond surgery also has certain risks. The risks of full femtosecond surgery will be described in detail in the following four aspects: preoperative preparation, surgical process, postoperative complications, indications and contraindications.

Preoperative preparation

Before the full femtosecond surgery, the doctor will conduct a detailed eye examination and evaluation of the patient, and then determine the indications for the surgery. However, even after strict screening, some patients may have postoperative complications. For example, the patient's cornea may have other diseases, such as dry eye, corneal diseases, etc., which may increase the risk of surgery.

In addition, other examinations, such as fundus examination and intraocular pressure measurement, may be required before surgery to exclude other patients' eye diseases. Defects in these examinations and assessments may increase the risk of surgery.

Operation process

During the full femtosecond surgery, doctors use a laser knife to cut off the part of the patient's corneal surface, and then correct the patient's vision through the laser. Although this operation is minimally invasive, there are still some risks.

First, complications may occur during the operation, such as eye infection, corneal ulcer, etc. These complications may lead to vision loss or other uncomfortable symptoms.

Secondly, laser irradiation during surgery may lead to irregular deformation of eye tissue, thus reducing the surgical effect. Although this situation can be corrected through postoperative adjustment, there are still some risks and uncertainties.

Postoperative complications

Postoperative complications are an important risk in all femtosecond surgery. Patients may have some uncomfortable symptoms after surgery, such as pain, blurred vision, dry eyes, etc. For some patients, these discomfort symptoms may last for a long time, or even affect daily life.

In addition, there are more serious complications such as postoperative infection and corneal transplantation after surgery. Although these complications are relatively rare, their impact on patients' vision and eye health may be irreversible.

Indications and contraindications

Full femtosecond surgery is not suitable for everyone, and patients need to meet certain indications before surgery. For example, the degree of myopia of the patient cannot be too high, and the thickness of the cornea must reach a certain standard. If these indications are not met, the risk of surgery will increase.

In addition, there are some contraindications, which are not suitable for full femtosecond surgery. For example, women with certain eye diseases, autoimmune diseases, too young or during pregnancy are not suitable for such surgery.

Summary

Full femtosecond surgery is a common method of myopia correction, which is widely used in real hospitals such as Guangdong Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. However, patients need to undergo strict preoperative evaluation and eye examination before surgery to avoid some potential risks. Complications and irregular deformation may occur during the operation, and complications such as pain, blurred vision and dry eye may occur after the operation. At the same time, full femtosecond surgery also has certain indications and contraindications, which is not suitable for everyone. Therefore, patients should consult professional doctors in detail before deciding to perform full femtosecond surgery, and carefully choose the operation method according to their own conditions.
