Wuhan Purui Eye Hospital is a hospital specializing in ophthalmic treatment, in which ICL (intraocular lens) surgery is one of their core services. ICL surgery is a method of correcting myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism by implanting self lens. The following people are suitable for ICL surgery:
First, ICL surgery is suitable for adults. Because the operation requires intraocular lens implantation and mature eye development, it is usually suitable for adults aged 18 years and above.
Secondly, ICL surgery is suitable for patients with myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism of stable degree. Before surgery, the doctor will evaluate whether the patient's myopia, hyperopia or astigmatism is stable. Generally, the myopia is required to be stable between - 3.00 and - 20.00 degrees, the hyperopia is stable between+2.00 and+10.00 degrees, and the astigmatism is stable between 1.00 and 6.00 degrees.
Third, ICL surgery is applicable to people whose corneal conditions are not suitable for laser refractive surgery. For patients with thin cornea or abnormal corneal morphology, laser surgery may have certain risks. ICL surgery can avoid these problems because it can correct vision by implanting lens without changing the shape of cornea.
Finally, ICL surgery is suitable for people who are sensitive to eye injury. Some people are sensitive to eye contact and are not suitable for wearing contact lenses or corneal shaping glasses and almost all other methods to correct vision. For these people, ICL surgery is a better choice because it will not cause eye discomfort.
Surgical advantages
ICL surgery has some obvious advantages over traditional laser refractive surgery.
First of all, ICL surgery is stable and reliable. ICL surgery changes the focus of the eye by implanting lens without changing the shape of the cornea. Therefore, the vision after surgery is stable, and the correction degree will not fluctuate again.
Secondly, ICL surgery recovers quickly. The operation time is short, and the patient can complete the operation in 30 minutes. The recovery period after surgery is short, and patients can quickly return to normal life and work.
Third, ICL surgery can be reversed. Because the lens is implanted in the eye rather than removed, ICL surgery can remove the lens again, so as to recover to the preoperative state, which is very important in some cases.
Operation precautions
Before receiving ICL surgery, patients need to pay attention to the following matters:
First, the patient needs to complete a comprehensive eye examination. The doctor will check the patient's eye conditions, assess the health of the cornea and lens, and confirm whether it is suitable for ICL surgery.
Secondly, patients need to understand the risks and effects of surgery. ICL surgery has certain risks, such as infection, elevated intraocular pressure, etc. The patient needs to fully communicate with the doctor to understand the expected effect and possible complications of the operation.
Third, we need to follow the doctor's advice after the operation. After the operation, the doctor will give some precautions, such as avoiding strenuous exercise, not rubbing eyes, etc. The patient needs to strictly follow the doctor's advice to ensure the surgical effect and eye health.
summary
The ICL surgery in Wuhan Purui Eye Hospital is applicable to adults, myopic, hyperopic and astigmatic patients with stable degree. Corneal conditions are not suitable for people who do laser refractive surgery and people who are sensitive to eye injury. ICL surgery has the advantages of stable and reliable effect, rapid recovery and reversibility. Before receiving ICL surgery, patients need to complete an eye examination, understand the risks and effects of the surgery, and follow the doctor's recommendations. Through ICL surgery, patients can obtain bright and clear vision and improve the quality of life.
