How long does myopic surgery in Wuhan Tongji Hospital take to recover?
Myopic surgery is a common method to correct myopia. It mainly changes the eyeball through laser and other means to achieve the effect of correcting myopia. As a well-known eye hospital, Wuhan Tongji Hospital has accumulated rich experience in myopia surgery. Then, we will introduce the recovery time of myopic surgery in Wuhan Tongji Hospital in detail from four aspects: postoperative vision recovery, corneal recovery, inflammation recovery and normal life recovery.
1. Vision recovery after operation
After surgery, vision recovery is one of the most important issues for patients. Generally speaking, the patient's vision may be blurred to some extent on the first day after surgery, but this is normal. Over time, the patient's vision will gradually recover. Generally, the vision of patients can reach a relatively clear level when they recover to 2 or 3 days. About one week after the operation, the vision of most patients can return to the normal level. However, everyone's recovery is different, and individual patients may need a longer time to recover their vision.
It should be noted that the postoperative vision recovery needs to follow the medication and nursing guidance given by the doctor, and return regularly to ensure the postoperative effect and recovery.
2. Corneal recovery
Myopia surgery mainly changes the cornea, so the recovery of the cornea is a very important part of the surgery recovery process. On the first day after surgery, some patients may feel some discomfort on the corneal surface, such as dryness or foreign body sensation. This is a normal phenomenon. Usually, with the passage of time, these discomfort will gradually reduce. About one week after surgery, the patient's cornea recovered relatively well, and the related discomfort would also be significantly reduced.
However, the complete recovery of the cornea takes longer. Generally, corneal surface repair takes about 3 months. During this period, patients need to pay special attention to protecting their eyes to avoid eye injury or infection. Timely follow-up and following the doctor's nursing advice are essential for corneal recovery.
3. Inflammation recovery
After myopia surgery, there may be some inflammation around the eyes. This is a normal immune reaction, which usually subsides about 1 week after surgery. During this period, the patient may have red eyes, tears, photophobia and other symptoms. These symptoms will gradually reduce as the inflammation subsides.
The time of inflammation resolution may vary depending on individual differences. Generally, it can recover to a better state in about 3 months. However, it should be noted that the recovery of inflammatory reaction does not mean the recovery of vision. Therefore, patients should pay close attention to their own inflammatory reaction after surgery and regularly go to the hospital for further consultation.
4. Recovery of normal life
In addition to the recovery of vision, cornea and inflammation, postoperative patients should also pay attention to the recovery of normal life. After myopic surgery, patients need to avoid strenuous exercise, eye injuries and maintain adequate sleep. The purpose of these measures is to avoid trauma to the surgical site and promote the recovery of the eye.
Generally speaking, patients can take some moderate physical activities, such as walking, 2 weeks after the operation. However, it should be noted that patients after surgery still need to return regularly during the recovery period to ensure eye health and stable postoperative effects.
summary
To sum up, the recovery time of myopia surgery in Wuhan Tongji Hospital is related to individual differences, but generally speaking, from the four aspects of postoperative vision recovery, corneal recovery, inflammation recovery and normal life recovery, the recovery time needs about 1 week to 3 months. However, patients still need to pay close attention to their own recovery and follow the doctor's advice and nursing guidance in the recovery process after surgery to ensure the effect of surgery and the health of patients.
