What are the precautions after myopic surgery?

In today's information explosion society, myopia has become a common vision problem. In order to get rid of the shackles of glasses or contact lenses, many people choose to undergo myopia surgery. However, the postoperative precautions are ignored by most people. Here, we will have a detailed understanding of the precautions after myopia surgery given by Shanghai New Vision Eye Hospital.

Avoid severe eye use after surgery

For a period of time after myopia surgery, the eyes need proper rest and recovery. Therefore, postoperative patients should try to avoid using their eyes violently, such as staring at computer screens, televisions, mobile phones and other electronic devices for a long time. If it is impossible to avoid contact with these devices, appropriate measures should be taken, such as using eye protection software, often closing the eyes for rest, etc., to reduce eye fatigue and discomfort.

In addition, participation in strenuous exercise or high-risk exercise should also be avoided. These activities may lead to eye injury or damage to the surgical site, and prolong the recovery time after surgery.

Pay attention to eye hygiene after operation

Postoperative patients need to pay special attention to eye hygiene. Keep your hands clean and avoid rubbing your eyes with your hands to avoid infection or irritation of the surgical site. It is also important to avoid contact with pollutants or dust, use clean eyewear care products, and follow the doctor's instructions for eye cleaning and care.

When washing your face, bath or hair, be careful not to let water or shampoo enter your eyes. If it accidentally gets into the eyes, it should be washed with clean water quickly, and if there is any discomfort, it should be sent to a doctor in time.

Regular follow-up after operation

It is very important to have regular follow-up visits after surgery. The patient needs to follow the doctor's advice for further consultation during the postoperative recovery period. The doctor will observe the patient's eyes to ensure that the effect of the operation is stable and there are no complications.

During the follow-up visit, the patient can ask the doctor questions and ask for some precautions about postoperative life, diet and exercise. The doctor will give professional advice and guidance according to the patient's personal situation to help the patient make the right choice.

Pay attention to eye protection after operation

In addition to following the doctor's guidance and regular follow-up, patients should also pay attention to eye protection. This includes wearing glasses or sunglasses to protect the eyes from sunlight, irritation or dust. In addition, avoiding excessive eye use and driving for a long time are also important measures to protect eyes.

In daily life, patients should also pay attention to maintaining good eating habits and taking adequate vitamins and antioxidants to enhance eye health.
