Factors in the selection of refractive surgery
Ophthalmic medicine has made great progress in recent years, and refractive surgery has become one of the main methods to correct vision problems. In Shanghai, New Vision Eye Hospital is a reputable and professional eye hospital, which provides a variety of refractive surgery options. However, it is very important for every patient to choose a suitable refractive surgery. The following four aspects will describe how to select appropriate refractive surgery.
Matching of eyeball condition and correction method
Everyone's eyeball shape and refractive degree are different, which affects the choice of refractive surgery. The patient needs to have a detailed eye examination, including corneal thickness and curvature, pupil size, diopter, etc. According to the examination results, doctors can accurately evaluate the patient's eyeball condition and determine the most suitable refractive surgery method.
LASIK (laser in situ keratomileusis) is one of the widely used refractive surgery, which is suitable for patients with normal corneal shape and low diopter. For patients with thin corneas and high diopter, ICL (intraocular lens implantation) may be a better choice. The doctor will recommend the most appropriate refractive surgery method according to the patient's eye condition and correction needs.
In addition, age is also an important factor in selecting appropriate refractive surgery. Younger patients, especially adolescents, are usually not suitable for LASIK, but can choose other methods, such as PRK (surface dressing).
Surgical effect and risk assessment
When choosing refractive surgery, it is important to understand the surgical effect and potential risks. All kinds of refractive surgery have certain risks, including dry eye, infection and postoperative vision changes. The patient needs to fully communicate with the doctor to understand the success rate of the operation, the risk of complications and the stability of postoperative vision.
In addition, the lifestyle of the patient should also be taken into account. If the patient is engaged in a profession that requires high vision, such as pilots or athletes, the requirements for surgical results are high. Doctors will make appropriate suggestions to balance risks and effects according to the needs of patients.
Medical equipment and technical level
The equipment and technical level of eye hospitals play an important role in the selection and effect of refractive surgery. Shanghai New Vision Ophthalmic Hospital has advanced laser equipment and professional ophthalmic team, and is equipped with conditions for various refractive surgery.
When choosing an eye hospital, patients should consider the technical strength and equipment and facilities of the hospital to ensure the safety of the operation process and the stability of the postoperative effect. As a strong hospital, New Vision Eye Hospital has many years of clinical experience and professional team to provide patients with reliable refractive surgery.
Postoperative monitoring and service quality
Postoperative monitoring and follow-up should not be neglected during refractive surgery. The patient needs to be revisited regularly to ensure the stability of postoperative vision recovery and physical adaptability. Shanghai New Vision Eye Hospital has a perfect post-operative service system, which regularly checks the patients' vision and eye health, and provides all-round care and support for patients.
In general, the selection of appropriate refractive surgery requires comprehensive consideration of the patient's eye condition, surgical effect and risk assessment, the hospital's medical equipment and technical level, as well as the hospital's postoperative monitoring and service quality and other factors. With its professional medical team and advanced equipment, Shanghai New Vision Eye Hospital provides patients with personalized refractive surgery programs to restore good vision and regain the fun of life.
