Dr. Li, Shanghai New Vision Eye Hospital: What needs eye surgery?
Eye surgery is an important treatment method in modern ophthalmology. It improves and repairs eye problems, improves vision and eye function through surgical intervention. In Shanghai New Vision Eye Hospital, Dr. Li, as an experienced ophthalmologist, often faces a variety of patients. Here, we will elaborate on what circumstances require eye surgery.
Myopic correction
With the development of modern society, myopia has become a common eye problem. Myopia has seriously affected people's life and work. Therefore, myopia correction surgery has become the treatment method of choice for more and more myopic patients. Through laser surgery, such as LASIK, PRK, etc., Dr. Li can improve the vision of myopic patients by changing the corneal curvature without surgery, so that they can get rid of the trouble of relying on glasses or contact lenses.
Myopic correction surgery is not applicable to all people. Age, corneal thickness, eye condition, etc. are all considered. Therefore, before deciding whether to perform surgery, the patient needs to undergo a comprehensive eye examination and evaluation to determine whether it is suitable for myopia correction surgery.
cataract surgery
Cataract is a common eye disease, which usually occurs with age. When the transparency of the lens decreases, patients will have problems such as decreased vision, blurring, and light sensitivity. For cataract patients, cataract surgery is the only effective treatment.
Cataract surgery restores vision by removing the patient's lens and implanting an intraocular lens. Dr. Li has rich experience in cataract surgery, and can choose appropriate surgical methods according to the specific conditions of patients, such as phacoemulsification, optical multifocal intraocular lens, etc. After surgery, patients often can quickly restore their vision and no longer need to wear glasses.
Refractive surgery
Ametropia refers to the inability of the eyeball to focus light accurately, resulting in blurred vision. Among them, astigmatism is one of the common refractive errors. Astigmatism patients' vision is seriously affected, whether hyperopia or myopia, can not accurately see objects.
The aim of refractive surgery is to correct refractive errors by changing the corneal curvature or intraocular lens, so that the patient's vision can return to normal. LASIK surgery is one of the most common surgical methods. Laser technology is used to cut the cornea to change its curvature. Dr. Li will select appropriate surgical methods for correction according to the condition of astigmatism patients.
Corneal transplantation
Corneal disease is one of the important causes of blindness, including keratitis, corneal ulcer, corneal degeneration, etc. For some serious corneal diseases, corneal transplantation is the only treatment. Corneal transplantation surgery restores vision by replacing damaged corneas with donated corneas.
Corneal transplantation is a highly complicated operation, which requires very fine technology and experience. In Shanghai New Vision Eye Hospital, Dr. Li has rich experience in corneal transplantation surgery and can provide safe and efficient surgical treatment for patients.
Through the above four aspects, we can see that eye surgery plays a key role in the treatment of different eye problems. Whether it is myopia, cataract, ametropia or corneal disease, eye surgery is an effective way to improve the quality of life of patients. In Shanghai New Vision Eye Hospital, Dr. Li, as a professional ophthalmologist, will provide safe and effective eye surgery for patients according to their specific conditions and needs.
In addition to the operation itself, postoperative recovery and precautions are equally important. Patients need to carry out appropriate eye care and reexamination according to the doctor's instructions. Only in this way can we ensure the good therapeutic effect of the operation and avoid the occurrence of complications.
