Glasses matching is one of the most common and traditional methods to treat myopia. The optometry hospital in Guangzhou provides professional optometry services, and prepares suitable glasses for patients according to individual myopia and visual needs. Depending on the degree of myopia, patients can choose ordinary myopia lenses, progressive multifocal lenses or high refractive index lenses made of special materials. Patients with high myopia can choose high refractive index lenses to reduce the thickness and weight of the lenses and provide better visual effects. The preparation of myopia glasses requires experienced optometrists and high-precision instruments to ensure accuracy and comfort.
In addition, the ophthalmic hospital in Guangzhou also provides glasses for corneal shaping lenses. Corneal shaping lens is a special kind of contact lens, which can correct myopia by changing the shape of the cornea. The patient wears a corneal shaping lens at night, and changes the corneal curvature by applying appropriate pressure to the cornea, so that the normal vision can be temporarily restored after removing the lens in the daytime. The use of corneal plastic lens requires the guidance of doctors and regular reexamination, which has certain requirements on the shape and health of the patient's cornea.
Eye laser surgery
Eye laser surgery is a common method of treating myopia, but also a permanent treatment. Guangzhou Eye Hospital is equipped with advanced laser equipment, which can provide different treatment methods such as LASIK (corneal flap ablation) and PRK (surface ablation), and select appropriate surgical methods according to the specific conditions of patients.
LASIK surgery uses femtosecond laser to make a tiny corneal flap, and then uses the laser to thin the cornea and reposition the flap to the original position to change the curvature of the cornea, so as to correct myopia. PRK surgery is to ablate a layer of corneal tissue directly on the surface of the cornea with laser to achieve a similar effect. Eye laser surgery requires detailed screening before surgery to ensure the patient's eye health and a certain postoperative recovery period.
Behavior therapy
Behavior therapy is an auxiliary method to treat myopia. It can reduce the symptoms of myopia by changing the bad eye use behavior. The Guangzhou Eye Hospital provides a behavioral treatment program to guide patients to use their eyes correctly and change their habit of using eyes at close quarters for a long time.
One of the important behavioral treatments is eye exercises. The Guangzhou Eye Hospital offers eye exercises courses to teach patients some simple eye movements and relaxation techniques to alleviate eye fatigue and promote the blood circulation of the eyes. In addition, the doctor will also advise patients to take appropriate outdoor activities, look far and blink more, and reduce the time for long and close eye use.
