Risks and precautions of femtosecond surgery in Guangzhou Armed Police Hospital
Ophthalmic femtosecond surgery is a common method to treat myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and other eye diseases. This technology has been widely used in Guangzhou Armed Police Hospital. However, any operation has certain risks and precautions. This article will elaborate on the femtosecond surgery in Guangzhou Armed Police Hospital from four aspects: preoperative evaluation, surgical process, postoperative precautions and potential risks.
1. Preoperative evaluation
Before femtosecond surgery, Guangzhou Armed Police Hospital will conduct a detailed preoperative evaluation to determine the indications of surgery and the health status of patients. First, the doctor will conduct a comprehensive examination of the patient's eyeball structure, including the measurement of corneal curvature, thickness and other data. At the same time, doctors will also know the patient's medical history, drug use and other diseases.
The purpose of preoperative evaluation is to determine the feasibility of surgery and reduce the postoperative risk. If the patient has some serious eye diseases, such as keratitis, glaucoma, etc., which may affect the effect and safety of surgery, the doctor may consider other treatments or not recommend surgery.
At the same time, patients need to cooperate with the hospital to carry out a series of examinations before and after the assessment, such as corneal measurement, naked eye vision, as well as preoperative examination and consultation.
2. Operation process
In the Guangzhou Armed Police Hospital, the femtosecond surgery was performed by an experienced ophthalmologist, and the procedure was accurate and fast. However, there are still some risks that need attention during the operation. First of all, it is possible that the postoperative visual acuity could not reach the expected effect due to inaccurate operation. In addition, although the surgical procedure is short, the patient still needs to keep his eyes stable to avoid infection or other complications after the surgical instrument enters the eyeball.
The doctor of surgery will give the patient local anesthesia to alleviate the patient's discomfort during surgery. The patient needs to keep cooperating with the doctor's guidance, close his eyes and lie still to avoid any action against the doctor's instructions.
Due to the complicated operation process, Guangzhou Armed Police Hospital will arrange professional nurses to accompany patients throughout the whole process to ensure the smooth operation.
3. Postoperative precautions
After the femtosecond operation, the Guangzhou Armed Police Hospital will observe the recovery of the patient for a period of time and give corresponding postoperative nursing guidance. Patients should actively cooperate with doctors' suggestions and pay attention to the following aspects:
First, patients need to avoid rubbing their eyes to avoid damaging the cornea and causing infection. Secondly, patients should avoid strenuous exercise and strenuous activity to avoid additional pressure on the eyes. In addition, patients may feel dryness, pain or foreign body sensation in the eyes after surgery, which is a normal physiological reaction and will generally relieve itself within a few days.
In addition, patients need to return on time to receive reexamination and evaluation from doctors to ensure that the surgical effect and recovery process meet expectations. During the postoperative recovery period, patients should pay attention to keeping their eyes clean and avoiding contact with pollution sources to reduce the risk of infection.
4. Potential risks
Although femtosecond surgery is a relatively safe ophthalmic surgery, there are still some potential risks. Before surgery in Guangzhou Armed Police Hospital, patients will be informed of possible risks, such as incomplete recovery of postoperative vision or failure to achieve the desired effect, infection, dry eye, etc. In addition, some accidents may occur during the operation, such as corneal tear, intraocular pressure rise, etc. Although these risks exist, they have been minimized under the guidance of experienced doctors and advanced equipment.
Summary
The femtosecond surgery in Guangzhou Armed Police Hospital is a safe and effective ophthalmic surgery, but the patient needs to undergo a detailed preoperative evaluation before accepting the surgery, and the doctor will judge the feasibility of the surgery according to the patient's eye structure and health status. During the operation, the patient needs to maintain the positioning and pay attention to the safety of surgical instruments. After surgery, patients need to follow the doctor's recommendations for nursing and reexamination to ensure that the surgical effect and recovery process meet expectations. Although there are certain potential risks, the risks have been minimized under the guidance of experienced doctors. Therefore, it is safe and reliable to receive femtosecond surgery in Guangzhou Armed Police Hospital.
