Shanghai Eye Hospital: How to treat myopia?
Myopia is a common visual problem, especially in modern society, more and more people suffer from myopia. As a professional ophthalmic medical institution, Shanghai Eye Hospital actively explores and applies various treatment methods to help patients get rid of myopia. This article will elaborate on the treatment of myopia from four aspects: adjusting living habits, visual training, medication and surgery.
Adjust living habits
Life habits have an important impact on the treatment of myopia. The first is to use the eyes correctly. Keeping your eyes fixed on the screen or books for a long time can easily aggravate myopia. Therefore, we should keep a certain distance, look far and relax our eyes at regular intervals. The second is to arrange eye use time reasonably. Excessive eye use will lead to eye fatigue and increase the risk of myopia. Therefore, after using eyes for a long time, you should take a proper rest and carry out eye exercises and other eye exercises to promote the blood circulation of the eyes.
In addition, it is also very important to keep a good eye environment. Keep the indoor light bright, avoid direct sunlight to the eyes, and avoid reading or using electronic equipment in a dark environment for a long time. In addition, cultivating healthy habits, ensuring adequate sleep, and eating more food rich in vitamin A and C will help improve eye health and slow down the development of myopia.
Visual training
Visual training is a very effective treatment for myopia. Scientific training can improve the adjustment ability of the eyes and the coordination of near and far vision. There are various methods of visual training, including short distance adjustment training, hyperopia training, visual sports training, etc. These training methods aim to stimulate the movement and adjustment function of eye muscles, and improve all aspects of the visual system through continuous practice.
Visual training is a systematic project, which must be guided and supervised by professional doctors. Shanghai Eye Hospital is equipped with a team of experienced visual trainers to provide patients with personalized visual training programs. Both children and adults can achieve good results as long as they adhere to training according to the guidance of doctors.
medication
Drug therapy is a conventional treatment for myopia. At present, the commonly used drugs for myopia include atropine and cyclosporine eye drops. These drugs can reduce the degree of myopia by enlarging the pupil or improving the eye adjustment function. However, drug treatment can only be temporarily effective, and the degree of myopia may recover after drug withdrawal. Therefore, when using drug therapy, it is necessary to use drugs and adjust the dose according to the doctor's recommendations.
Drug treatment requires the guidance and supervision of doctors, and is not applicable to all myopia patients. In Shanghai Ophthalmology Hospital, doctors will comprehensively use different drug treatment schemes according to the patient's condition, taking into account the eyeball regulation status, patient's age and other factors, so as to achieve the best treatment effect.
surgical treatment
Surgical treatment is a common treatment method for myopia, especially suitable for myopia patients with high degree. Laser myopic surgery and intraocular lens implantation are common surgical methods at present.
Laser myopia surgery can reduce the cornea and change the refraction of the eye through laser technology, so as to achieve the effect of correcting myopia. The intraocular lens implantation surgery is to implant the intraocular lens into the eyeball to change the refraction of the eyeball. Both operations should be performed by professional ophthalmologists after detailed examination and evaluation.
In general, Shanghai Eye Hospital has advanced equipment and a strong professional team to provide a variety of treatment programs for myopia patients. Whether it is lifestyle adjustment, visual training, drug treatment or surgical treatment, they are all designed to help patients reduce the problems caused by myopia and improve the quality of vision.
To sum up, Shanghai Eye Hospital provides personalized treatment plans for patients by adjusting their living habits, visual training, medication, surgery and other methods. Both children and adults can achieve satisfactory results as long as they actively cooperate with the treatment according to the guidance of doctors.
