Wuhan Purui Eye Hospital: Can myopia be corrected by surgery?

Myopia has become one of the common visual problems of modern people, which brings inconvenience to people's life and work. Therefore, many myopic patients are eager to find an effective method to correct myopia. As a professional eye hospital, Wuhan Purui Eye Hospital has accumulated rich experience in the field of eye surgery and solved the problems of many myopic patients. So, can myopia be corrected by surgery? This article will elaborate on this issue from different perspectives.

Corneal refractive surgery: an effective method to correct myopia

Corneal refractive surgery is a common method to correct myopia, which can be divided into laser myopia correction surgery and ICL implantation surgery.

Laser myopia correction surgery uses excimer laser technology to change the curvature of the cornea so that the light can be more accurately focused on the retina, thus achieving the effect of correcting myopia. The operation has the characteristics of stable correction effect and fast recovery, and is one of the most commonly used surgical methods to correct myopia.

ICL implantation surgery is to implant a special intraocular lens into the eye to change the diopter of the eye, so as to achieve the purpose of correcting myopia. This operation is suitable for patients with high myopia. Its advantage is that it is highly reversible and will not damage the cornea.

Requirements and preparation before operation

Before deciding to perform corneal refractive surgery, the doctor will conduct a detailed eye examination for the patient, including vision test, corneal topography, fundus examination, etc., to determine the indications and operation plan of the surgery.

Before surgery, patients need to follow the doctor's instructions, stop wearing contact lenses, maintain eye hygiene, and avoid eye infection. In addition, patients also need to understand the possible risks of surgery and postoperative precautions, and make psychological preparations.

Postoperative care and precautions

After surgery, patients need to follow the doctor's instructions for nursing and precautions.

First of all, patients need to avoid rubbing their eyes, blowing their nose and other behaviors, so as not to affect the surgical effect and hurt their eyes. Secondly, patients need to pay attention to maintaining eye hygiene to avoid eye infection. In addition, regular follow-up visits are also required to receive regular inspection and guidance from doctors.

It should be noted that although corneal refractive surgery has a good effect on correcting myopia, not all myopia patients are suitable for surgery. Patients should make decisions according to their own conditions and needs after receiving evaluation and guidance from doctors.

Summary

Wuhan Purui Eye Hospital, as a professional eye hospital, provides safe and effective myopia correction surgery. Corneal refractive surgery is one of the commonly used methods to correct myopia by laser or intraocular lens. A detailed eye examination should be carried out before the operation, and care and precautions should be paid attention to after the operation. However, it should be emphasized that the surgical indications should be determined according to the evaluation and guidance of doctors. I hope this article can provide some valuable information and reference for myopic patients.
