Operation process and recovery time
Wuhan Tongji Hospital is a famous medical center specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of ophthalmic diseases. For myopic patients, ICL (Implantable Collimer Lens) surgery is designed, which is a surgical method to correct vision by implanting intraocular lens. Then, we will introduce the process and recovery time of ICL surgery in detail.
ICL surgery is a minimally invasive surgery. Before surgery, doctors will conduct detailed examinations, including measuring pupil diameter, corneal thickness, etc. On the day of operation, the patient needs to receive local anesthesia, and the operation time is usually about 20-30 minutes. The doctor implanted ICL into the patient's eyes through a 3mm small incision, and then positioned it between the cornea and iris. The patient can leave the hospital soon after the operation, but it is necessary to pay attention to the eye protection after the operation to avoid collision and infection.
The recovery time after ICL surgery varies from person to person, but generally speaking, most patients can feel the improvement of vision within a few days after surgery. In the first week after surgery, the patient needs to use eye drops for eye care and follow the doctor's instructions for recovery training. Generally speaking, about one month after the operation, the vision will be basically stable and can complete daily life, work and study.
In general, ICL surgery is a safe and efficient method for myopia correction. The examination and nursing before and after the operation are very important. The patients can recover faster only if they have reasonable postoperative rehabilitation training and use eye drops according to the doctor's recommendations.
Postoperative life recovery
During the recovery period after surgery, patients need to avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting to avoid eye irritation or pressure. At the same time, patients need to pay attention to diet, avoid spicy and stimulating food, and drink alcohol. In addition, wearing protective glasses can protect the eyes from dust and other foreign matters.
In the first week after surgery, patients may have blurred vision or sensitivity, which is normal. Over time, these problems will gradually improve. Patients should maintain good eye hygiene and avoid rubbing eyes to avoid infection.
One month after the operation, the patient can gradually return to normal life. However, at this stage, it is still necessary to avoid strenuous exercise and heavy labor to avoid ICL displacement out of the pupil.
Precautions and risks
ICL surgery is a safe and reliable method for myopia correction, but there are also some precautions and risks, such as corneal edema, elevated intraocular pressure, infection, etc. Patients should consult their doctors before surgery to understand their own indications and contraindications.
In addition, ICL surgery can not completely eliminate myopia, and eye shape changes, age and other factors will still affect vision. Patients need regular reexamination and vision protection and care according to the doctor's recommendations.
summary
ICL surgery in Wuhan Tongji Hospital is a safe and effective method for myopia correction. The operation process is simple and fast, and the recovery time is relatively short. Patients need to follow the doctor's instructions after surgery, care for the eyes correctly, and pay attention to personal hygiene to ensure the surgical effect and recovery process. ICL surgery can enable patients to regain clear vision and resume normal life.
However, patients need to understand the risks and precautions before choosing ICL surgery, and accept professional advice from doctors. In order to maintain good vision, patients also need to have regular re examinations and vision protection.
