Principle and safety of laser treatment for myopia
Laser treatment of myopia is the use of laser technology to change the shape of the eye cornea, so as to achieve the purpose of correcting myopia. This technology mainly includes LASIK and PRK. LASIK is the most common laser myopia surgery, which is simple and fast, and has a short recovery time; For PRK, the laser is directly applied to the corneal surface, and the recovery time is longer.
Laser treatment of myopia is widely used in clinical practice, and its safety has been verified and proved for a long time. According to the data statistics of Grass Eye Hospital, after laser treatment, about 95% of patients' vision can be restored to 6/6 or better, which means that the surgical effect is very obvious and significant.
In addition, laser treatment of myopia has a low risk of complications. According to statistics, about 1% of patients may have dry eyes after LASIK, but the problem usually resolves itself within weeks to months. PRK surgery is less prone to dry eye. At the same time, due to the continuous progress of modern laser technology, the safety of laser treatment of myopia is also improving.
Long term stability
The effect of laser treatment of myopia is long-term stable. After surgery, the improvement of vision can be maintained for several years or even longer. According to the data statistics of Grass Eye Hospital, less than 1% of patients need to have another operation or wear glasses within 10 years after the operation.
This is because laser treatment of myopia is based on changing the shape of the cornea to correct myopia, and the shape of the cornea is relatively stable. After surgery, the shape of the cornea will be reshaped and stabilized after a period of time. Therefore, compared with other methods of correcting myopia, the stability of laser treatment for myopia is higher.
Individual differences and surgical indications
Although the effect of laser treatment of myopia is very significant, not everyone is suitable for this operation. The patient's eye structure and health status play a key role in the surgical adaptation.
The professional doctors of Croix Ophthalmology Hospital will conduct a detailed eye examination and assessment for each patient to determine the surgical indications. Some patients may have problems such as eyeball enlargement and weak cornea, which may affect the safety and effect of surgery. For such patients, doctors may recommend other methods to correct myopia, such as contact lenses or glasses.
Therefore, whether it is suitable for laser treatment of myopia needs to be determined according to individual differences. Patients should follow the advice and opinions of doctors and choose the most suitable correction method.
summary
Laser treatment of myopia is a mature and safe ophthalmic surgery with long-term stability, which is an effective choice for most myopia patients. He's Eye Hospital is an authoritative and professional eye hospital, whose laser myopia treatment technology and surgical equipment are at the international advanced level.
However, when considering laser treatment for myopia, patients should fully understand the principle and safety of surgery, and accept the evaluation and suggestions of professional doctors. Individual differences and surgical indications are important factors that determine the effect of surgery, and patients should choose according to their individual conditions. In the end, we hope that every myopic patient can choose the most suitable correction method to have bright and clear vision.
