Complications of myopia surgery in Wuhan Huaxi Hospital
Myopia has become one of the common ophthalmic problems in modern people. In order to correct this problem, Wuhan Huaxi Hospital myopic surgery is one of the widely accepted treatment methods. However, like all operations, myopic surgery also has certain risks and possible complications. Next, I will elaborate on the complications of myopia surgery in Wuhan West China Hospital from several aspects.
1. Vision problems
Myopic surgery has certain risks, one of which is the possibility of postoperative vision problems. Although the surgical technology has been highly developed, everyone's eyeball and corneal structure are unique, so the effect of surgery may vary from individual to individual. Some patients may have decreased vision, blurred vision or even long-term dry eyes after surgery.
In addition, some patients may have night vision problems after surgery, such as night blindness or light sensitivity problems. This is due to the changes in the light scattering properties of the cornea after surgery. Although these problems are not very common, they still deserve attention.
However, it should be noted that despite these potential complications, the vision of the vast majority of patients after surgery will be significantly improved, and they can get rid of the trouble of relying on glasses. Therefore, before choosing an operation, you should know your own eye conditions in detail, have a full discussion with a professional doctor, and weigh the advantages and disadvantages.
2. Risk of infection
Any surgery has the potential risk of infection, and myopia surgery is no exception. Although professional hospitals have taken a series of strict disinfection measures and surgical procedures, postoperative infection may still occur.
Infection may cause eye pain, redness, swelling, tears and other symptoms, and needs timely treatment. If the patient has persistent or aggravated discomfort after the operation, he should seek medical advice and inform the doctor in time.
3. Dry eye syndrome
Dry eye syndrome is one of the common complications of myopia surgery. After surgery, due to the cutting of corneal epithelial cells or laser irradiation, lacrimal gland secretion may be insufficient, resulting in dry eyes, pain, blurred vision and other symptoms.
In order to avoid the occurrence of dry eye syndrome, patients need to carry out postoperative care according to the doctor's guidance, such as regular eye drops, avoiding staring at the screen for a long time, etc. For patients with dry eye disease, they need to fully communicate with doctors before surgery to assess the feasibility and risk of surgery.
4. Corneal diseases
Some myopic operations may have a certain impact on the cornea, especially those requiring corneal ablation or laser correction. Some patients may have corneal diseases after surgery, such as corneal degeneration, corneal weakness, etc. This may further affect vision and eye health, and may even require further treatment.
In order to reduce the risk of corneal diseases, patients should have a comprehensive eye examination before surgery to ensure the indications of surgery. For people with corneal diseases or other eye diseases, the risk of surgery may be higher, which needs careful assessment.
Summary
To sum up, although myopic surgery in Wuhan West China Hospital is an effective method to treat myopia, there is also a certain risk of complications. These complications include vision problems, infection risk, dry eye syndrome, and corneal disease. Nevertheless, the vast majority of patients can still achieve significant visual improvement after surgery. Before deciding to operate on myopia, we should fully communicate with professional doctors to understand our own eye conditions and the risks and benefits of surgery, so as to make a wise decision.
