The problem of intraocular pressure rise during femtosecond laser surgery in Wuhan Purui Eye Hospital

Femtosecond laser is a common corneal refractive surgery method, which is widely used in Wuhan Purui Eye Hospital. However, some patients may have elevated intraocular pressure after surgery. This article will elaborate on the rise of intraocular pressure after femtosecond surgery from four aspects: the principle of surgery, postoperative nursing, patient's own factors, and hospital measures.

Operation principle

Femtosecond laser surgery is a method of correcting vision by changing the shape of cornea with laser technology. After the corneal surface tissue is cut by laser, the curvature of the cornea is changed by laser to correct myopia or astigmatism. In this process, the effect of laser may lead to corneal tissue damage, and then affect the adjustment mechanism of intraocular pressure. Therefore, the rise of intraocular pressure after femtosecond surgery is a relatively common phenomenon. Femtosecond surgery will generally select appropriate cases, and doctors will decide whether it is suitable for surgery according to the patient's intraocular pressure. Generally speaking, no matter how the intraocular pressure changes before and after surgery, the hospital will adjust and treat according to individual conditions.

Postoperative care

Postoperative nursing is very important to avoid postoperative elevated intraocular pressure. After surgery, patients need to follow the doctor's recommendations for eye cleaning, eye drops, eye friction and other operations. This can reduce infection and irritation, and prevent the pressure inside the eyeball from being too high. In addition, with the continuous improvement of surgical technology, the operation of femtosecond surgery has become more and more refined, and the damage to the cornea has become less and less. Therefore, if the patient can follow the doctor's advice and return to see the doctor regularly, it is usually possible to avoid the occurrence of elevated intraocular pressure.

Patient's own factors

The patient's own physical condition and genetic factors will also affect the changes of intraocular pressure after surgery. Some people with special constitution, such as people with high intraocular pressure and glaucoma patients, are more likely to have elevated intraocular pressure after surgery. These factors need to be fully evaluated and screened before surgery. For some high-risk patients, doctors may choose other appropriate surgical methods, or monitor and adjust the intraocular pressure before and after surgery.

Hospital measures

As a professional ophthalmic medical institution, Wuhan Purui Eye Hospital has also taken a series of measures on the problem of intraocular pressure rise after femtosecond surgery. First of all, the hospital will strictly test the intraocular pressure before the operation to ensure the indication of the operation. Secondly, the hospital will provide detailed postoperative nursing guidance, and regularly carry out follow-up visits. In case of elevated intraocular pressure, the hospital will adjust the treatment plan in time and decide whether further treatment is needed according to the specific situation of the patient. To sum up, the femtosecond surgery in Wuhan Preh Eye Hospital may lead to an increase in intraocular pressure after surgery, but this problem can be prevented and controlled. The risk of postoperative elevated intraocular pressure can be minimized through preoperative evaluation and screening, postoperative standardized nursing, individual factors of patients and hospital measures. Therefore, patients should actively cooperate with the guidance and management of doctors before and after femtosecond surgery to ensure the safety and effectiveness of surgery.
