Is there any risk in Guangzhou femtosecond surgery?
With the rapid development of science and technology, femtosecond laser surgery has become an important technology in the field of ophthalmic surgery. As an important economic center and medical center in China, Guangzhou has many eye hospitals with advanced technology. However, the question of whether there are risks in Guangzhou femtosecond surgery is still a topic of concern for many people. The risks of femtosecond surgery in Guangzhou will be described in detail in the following four aspects: operation principle, postoperative recovery, complications and hospital selection.
Operation principle
Femtosecond laser surgery is a kind of surgery that cuts corneal tissue layer by layer through laser beam. It is more accurate and safe than traditional corneal ablation. The laser beam only acts on the surface of the cornea and will not affect other parts of the eye. Due to the use of anesthetic eye drops during the operation, the patient has no pain. The operation time is also relatively short, usually within a few minutes.
However, as any operation has certain risks, femtosecond laser surgery is no exception. Complications such as elevated intraocular pressure, infection and corneal edema may occur during surgery, but the incidence of these complications is extremely low. Due to the accuracy and safety of surgery, femtosecond surgery is widely considered as a safe ophthalmic surgery.
Recovery after operation
The recovery period after femtosecond surgery is relatively short, and patients can basically resume normal life in about a week. After surgery, patients need to pay attention to avoiding strenuous exercise, eye friction and pollution. At the same time, attention should be paid to medication and regular follow-up after surgery to ensure the completeness and stability of corneal healing.
During the recovery after surgery, some temporary discomfort may appear, such as dry eyes, blurred vision, etc. These discomfort will generally disappear within a few days. If the discomfort persists or worsens, the patient should seek medical advice in time. However, it should be pointed out that most patients can obtain significant vision improvement after surgery.
complication
The high safety of femtosecond surgery does not mean that there is no risk at all. Although rare, some complications may still occur. According to statistical data, the complication rate of femtosecond surgery is less than 1%. These complications include infection, corneal scar, corneal subsidence, etc. However, as a relatively mature technology, femtosecond surgery will be carefully examined and evaluated by doctors before surgery to ensure that patients have a low risk of surgery.
Select Hospital
Guangzhou has many eye hospitals with rich furniture and advanced technology. When choosing a femtosecond surgery hospital, patients should pay attention to the following points. First, select qualified and experienced hospitals and doctors for surgery. Secondly, understand the equipment and technical level of the hospital to ensure the quality of surgery. Finally, consult the opinions of other patients and the reputation of the hospital, and select a hospital with good reputation to ensure the surgical effect and medical safety.
To sum up, Guangzhou femtosecond surgery, as an advanced ophthalmic surgery technology, has a low risk. The operation process is accurate and the recovery time is short. Most patients can obtain significant vision improvement after the operation. Although there is a certain risk of complications, the incidence of femtosecond surgery is low. By selecting appropriate hospitals and doctors to perform surgery and improving the quality and safety of surgery, patients can obtain better surgical results.
