Time required for myopic surgery in Wuhan Army General Hospital
As a well-known medical institution, Wuhan Army General Hospital (hereinafter referred to as the "General Hospital") has rich experience and professional medical team in the field of myopia surgery. Myopia surgery is a kind of surgical method to correct the curvature of the eyeball through laser, which can effectively improve the problem of myopia. The time required for myopic surgery in the General Hospital will be introduced in detail from four aspects.
1. Examination time before operation
Before myopic surgery, patients need to undergo a series of preoperative examinations to ensure the safety and suitability of the surgery. These examinations usually include vision test, fundus examination, corneal measurement, etc. The General Hospital has advanced equipment and a professional team of doctors, which can efficiently complete these examinations and develop personalized surgical plans for patients according to the examination results. Generally, the time of preoperative examination varies according to the specific situation of the patient, and it usually takes 1 to 2 hours.
2. Operation time
The surgical techniques for myopia adopted by the general hospital mainly include LASIK and PRK. LASIK is a method of cutting the cornea into a corrugated shape by laser and performing laser correction under the cut cornea; PRK is a method of correcting corneal surface directly by laser. No matter which method is used, doctors in the general hospital will determine the operation plan according to the patient's ocular curvature, corneal thickness and other factors, and carry out fine operations. Generally speaking, the operation time for monocular myopia is about 10 to 15 minutes.
3. Postoperative recovery time
After the operation, the patient needs to take a rest in the operating room to ensure that there is no discomfort in the eyes. After that, the patient will be sent to the recovery room for observation, and the doctor will give detailed postoperative guidance. During the recovery period after surgery, patients need to use drugs according to the doctor's instructions, avoid eye friction, etc., and regularly return for consultation. Generally, patients need to stay in the recovery room for about 2 to 3 hours, and return to the hospital regularly within a few days or weeks after surgery.
4. Overall time demand
In general, it takes about 3 to 4 hours from the time when the patient enters the general hospital to the time when the surgery is completed and postoperative recovery is carried out. It is worth noting that this is only a rough time range, and the actual time required will vary according to the individual differences of patients and the complexity of surgery. The doctors in the general hospital will make a comprehensive assessment according to the specific conditions of the patients, and make a detailed explanation of the patient's schedule before the operation.
summary
As a professional medical institution, the General Hospital has rich experience and reliable equipment in the field of myopia surgery. From preoperative examination to surgery and postoperative recovery, the whole operation time for myopia is about 3 to 4 hours. However, the time of preoperative examination varies according to the specific situation of the patient, and the operation time is generally about 10 to 15 minutes. During the postoperative recovery period, the patient needs to be nursed according to the doctor's guidance, and return to see the doctor regularly. In general, the time required for myopic surgery in the general hospital is relatively short, which can greatly improve the myopic problem of patients.
