Operation arrangement and preparation
Wuhan Purui Eye Hospital is a professional eye hospital, providing different types of eye surgery, including ICL surgery. ICL (Implantable Collimer Lens) surgery is a kind of surgery to correct myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism by implanting foldable crystals. Before ICL surgery, a series of preparations are required.
First, the patient needs a comprehensive eye examination. The hospital will help patients with vision tests, corneal topography, intraocular pressure tests, etc. to determine whether it is suitable for ICL surgery. The doctor will also know the overall health of the patient to ensure the safety of the operation.
Next, the doctor will develop a personalized surgical plan for the patient according to the examination results. This includes determining the degree, size and other parameters of ICL, and explaining the risks and precautions of surgery. The patient can ask the doctor questions and fully understand the operation process and expected effect.
Generally speaking, after the operation plan is determined, the hospital will arrange a specific time for the operation for the patient. Since ICL surgery does not require corneal ablation and recovers quickly, it can be completed in a relatively short time.
Operation process
ICL surgery is usually performed in the ophthalmic operating room. Before the operation, the doctor will prepare the patient before the operation and give him local anesthesia. During the operation, the patient can feel some discomfort, but will not feel pain.
At the beginning of the operation, the doctor will use a laser to cut a small hole in the cornea, and then implant the foldable ICL into the eye through the small hole. After the operation, the doctor will check whether the position of ICL is correct, and give the patient a simple nursing operation.
The whole operation process is fast and usually only takes dozens of minutes to complete. Due to the use of local anesthesia, the operation process is relatively comfortable, and the patient has almost no pain. After surgery, patients can leave the operating room for rest, with a short recovery period.
Postoperative care
After ICL surgery, doctors will give detailed postoperative nursing guidance to patients. Patients need to follow the doctor's recommendations for eye care, including the use of antibiotic eye drops, to avoid severe eye movements, etc. At the same time, patients need to keep their eyes clean and avoid contact with polluted water sources.
In the first week after the operation, the patient needs to return to the hospital regularly, and the doctor will perform eye examination on the patient to confirm the indication and recovery of ICL. Slight discomfort and blurred vision may occur within 1-2 days after surgery, but these symptoms will be relieved soon.
The recovery period after surgery varies from person to person, and generally takes 2-3 weeks. During this period, patients need to avoid strenuous exercise and trauma, keep adequate sleep, and follow the doctor's advice on food and eye use. Although ICL surgery recovers quickly, patients still need to follow the doctor's recommendations to ensure the surgical effect and eye health.
