Treatment of myopia in Wuhan Hankou Eye Hospital
Myopia is a common eye health problem, which brings great trouble to people's daily life and study. Wuhan Hankou Eye Hospital, as a professional eye hospital, provides a variety of methods to treat myopia, and can choose the most suitable treatment according to the situation of different patients.
1. Correction of glasses
Correction with glasses is one of the most common and commonly used methods to treat myopia. Check the refractive state of myopia, determine the degree and type of glasses, and select appropriate glasses or contact lenses for patients to achieve the effect of correcting vision. The selection of contact lenses can also be customized according to the needs of patients and individual differences, including soft contact lenses and hard contact lenses.
However, the correction with glasses is only a temporary solution, which cannot cure myopia and can only provide good vision when wearing glasses. For patients, the eyes should be checked regularly and the glasses should be adjusted in time to maintain proper correction effect.
2. Corneal plastic lens treatment
Corneal shaping lens is a special contact lens. By changing the shape of the cornea, it can temporarily change the refractive state of the cornea, thus improving or correcting myopia. The patient puts on the corneal shaping lens before going to bed at night, and takes it off after staying overnight. In the daytime, the patient can not wear the lens or wear low-grade glasses to reduce or eliminate the pressure of myopia correction.
Corneal plastic lens treatment needs to be carried out under the guidance of the doctor, who will customize appropriate plastic lens according to the patient's corneal morphology and myopia. The treatment effect is usually significant, but the plastic mirror needs to be checked and replaced regularly to ensure the correction effect.
3. Refractive surgery
Refractive surgery is a method of treating myopia by changing the structure of the eyeball. Common refractive surgery includes laser surgery and intraocular lens implantation. Laser surgery can correct or reduce myopia by accurately cutting the cornea and forming a new curvature on the cornea, thereby changing the refractive state. Intraocular lens implantation is to implant an intraocular lens in front of the natural lens of the eye, and correct or reduce myopia by adjusting the diopter of the lens.
Refractive surgery is a rapid and effective method to treat myopia, but it needs to be carried out under the recommendation and evaluation of doctors, because surgery may have certain risks and complications. After surgery, attention should be paid to postoperative care and regular reexamination to ensure the effect of surgery and eye health.
4. Vision training
Vision training is to promote the normal growth and development of the eyes by exercising and training the eye muscles, so as to prevent and reduce the occurrence and development of myopia. Common vision training methods include eye movement, looking far, eye exercises, etc. Vision training is generally applicable to children and adolescents, especially early myopia patients.
Vision training needs to be carried out under the guidance of professional doctors, who will formulate corresponding training plans according to the age and myopia degree of patients. The effect of vision training is generally gradual and long-term, which requires patients to adhere to and regularly review.
Summary
To sum up, Wuhan Hankou Eye Hospital provides a variety of methods to treat myopia. Lens correction, corneal plastic lens treatment, refractive surgery and vision training are common treatments. Each method has its applicable patient group and characteristics, and patients can choose appropriate treatment methods according to their own conditions and doctors' suggestions. However, the treatment of myopia is only a means of correcting vision, which may not completely cure myopia. Patients also need to check their eyes regularly to maintain good eye health habits.
