Nanjing All Femtosecond Public Hospital: How to choose an appropriate ophthalmic surgery method?
Ophthalmic surgery is one of the effective methods to treat vision problems. As a well-known public hospital in Nanjing, Nanjing All Femtosecond Public Hospital has accumulated rich experience and technology in the field of ophthalmology. For different types of ophthalmic surgery, patients need to choose their own surgical methods according to their specific conditions. This article will elaborate from the aspects of surgical indications, the safety of surgical methods, the durability of surgical effects, and the cost of surgery, so as to help patients better choose ophthalmic surgical methods.
Surgical indications
Before choosing an ophthalmic operation, patients should first understand whether their ophthalmic problems are suitable for surgical treatment. Common ophthalmic surgical indications include myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, presbyopia, etc. However, different surgical methods correspond to different conditions, so it is necessary to determine whether the surgery is suitable for you through the evaluation of the doctor before choosing the surgical method.
For example, if the patient is myopic, the common surgical methods are laser myopia correction surgery (LASIK) and full femtosecond LASIK. LASIK is suitable for patients with high myopia and normal cornea, while full femtosecond LASIK is suitable for patients with thin cornea or abnormal curvature. Therefore, it is particularly important to choose an appropriate surgical method according to your own conditions.
Safety of operation mode
Ophthalmic surgery is a minimally invasive surgery, which has certain risks. Therefore, patients should consider the safety of surgery when choosing the surgical method. In general, full femtosecond surgery is safer than traditional laser surgery.
Full femtosecond surgery uses advanced femtosecond laser technology, which can achieve extremely fine corneal cutting and greatly reduce the risk of surgery. In addition, the full femtosecond surgery does not need to make corneal flap, which effectively reduces the invasion of surgery, and recovers quickly after surgery. Therefore, patients can choose their own surgical methods according to the safety factors of surgery.
Persistence of surgical effect
The persistence of surgical effect is one of the important factors for patients to consider when choosing ophthalmic surgery. The patient hopes that the operation can improve the vision problem for a long time, rather than temporarily alleviate it. Therefore, the durability of the surgical effect should be considered when selecting the surgical method.
For myopia surgery, laser corneal correction surgery and full femtosecond LASIK surgery have relatively lasting effects. Laser corneal correction surgery can stabilize vision for 3-5 years or even longer after surgery, while full femtosecond LASIK surgery can also maintain stable vision for a longer time after surgery. Therefore, patients should consider the durability of the surgical effect when choosing the surgical method to meet their own needs for long-term improvement of vision problems.
Operation expenses
The operation cost is also one of the factors that patients need to consider when choosing the ophthalmic operation mode. There are certain differences in the prices of different surgical methods, and patients can choose their own surgical methods according to their own economic conditions.
Generally speaking, the price of full femtosecond surgery is higher than that of traditional laser surgery. This is because full femtosecond surgery uses more advanced technology and equipment, and the complexity of the surgical process is high. However, patients also need to consider the effect and safety of surgery and choose the most suitable surgical method.
Summary
In Nanjing All Femtosecond Public Hospital, patients can obtain professional ophthalmic services and a variety of ophthalmic surgery methods to choose from. When choosing an appropriate ophthalmic operation mode, patients need to consider the indications, safety of the operation mode, durability of the operation effect and operation cost. Through comprehensive consideration of these factors, patients can choose the most suitable ophthalmic surgery method to achieve the desired therapeutic effect.
