Postoperative risk in Guangzhou Eye Hospital
The development and progress of ophthalmic surgery plays an important role in the treatment of eye diseases. As a leading ophthalmic medical institution, Guangzhou Eye Hospital provides various ophthalmic surgery services, including cataract surgery, myopia surgery, etc. However, any surgery has certain risks. This article will discuss the risks after surgery in Guangzhou Eye Hospital in detail, and provide some relevant prevention and response measures so that patients can make wise decisions.
1. Postoperative infection risk
Infection after ophthalmic surgery is a common complication. During the operation or within a few days after the operation, the eyes will be exposed to the external environment and vulnerable to bacterial and viral infection. The symptoms of postoperative infection include redness, swelling, pain, and increased secretion. In order to reduce the risk of infection, Guangzhou Ophthalmology Hospital has taken strict surgical procedures and aseptic measures to ensure the cleanness and disinfection of surgical instruments and environment.
In addition, patients after surgery need to follow the doctor's advice, pay attention to eye hygiene, do not rub eyes, do not touch water, etc., to reduce the risk of infection. In case of infection symptoms, the patient should seek medical advice in time and receive professional treatment.
2. Postoperative vision problems
After ophthalmic surgery, especially cataract surgery and myopia surgery, may lead to postoperative vision problems. For cataract surgery, blurred vision, deviation and other symptoms are common. This may be because the eyes need time to adapt to the intraocular lens, which usually improves gradually after a few weeks or months.
For myopia surgery, such as laser correction surgery, dry eye, halo, night vision loss and other problems may occur after surgery. These problems are usually relieved within days to months after the operation. However, there may still be a few patients who cannot achieve the desired vision correction effect after surgery.
3. Changes in intraocular pressure after surgery
After ophthalmic surgery, patients may face the risk of changes in intraocular pressure. This mainly refers to the risk of glaucoma after cataract surgery. Because cataract surgery will interfere with the flow of aqueous humor in the eye, which may lead to an increase in intraocular pressure, leading to glaucoma. Guangzhou Eye Hospital will assess the glaucoma risk of patients before surgery and take corresponding strategies according to needs.
For possible changes in intraocular pressure after surgery, patients need to pay close attention to their own eye conditions, visit again regularly, and report any abnormal symptoms in time, so that doctors can intervene and deal with them in a timely manner.
4. Risk of macular degeneration after surgery
Some eye surgery, such as myopia surgery, may increase the risk of macular degeneration. Macular degeneration is a disease that gradually occurs with age, and will lead to a gradual decline in central vision. Although myopic surgery improves vision, its impact on the risk of macular degeneration is unclear.
Guangzhou Eye Hospital will conduct a comprehensive examination of the patients undergoing surgery, assess whether the patients have a high risk of macular degeneration, and provide corresponding suggestions and preventive measures. In addition, patients should check the fundus regularly to find and treat the signs of macular degeneration as soon as possible.
summary
Guangzhou Eye Hospital is a professional institution that provides various ophthalmic operations. Although ophthalmic surgery plays an important role in treating eye diseases, each kind of surgery has certain risks. Common risks after surgery include infection, vision problems, changes in intraocular pressure, and the risk of macular degeneration.
In order to reduce these risks, Guangzhou Eye Hospital has adopted strict surgical procedures and aseptic measures, and provided personalized preoperative evaluation and postoperative nursing suggestions. Patients should pay close attention to the condition of their own eyes after surgery, return regularly and report any abnormal symptoms in time so that doctors can intervene and deal with them in a timely manner.
By understanding these risks and preventive measures, patients can make better decisions and obtain better rehabilitation effects after surgery.
