Common methods for myopia treatment in Guangzhou Ophthalmology Department
With the development of modern science and technology, the methods of treating myopia in Guangzhou Ophthalmology Department are also constantly innovating and improving. The following will introduce these methods in detail from four aspects: ophthalmic correction, corneal plastic lens, corneal refractive surgery and drug treatment.
Ophthalmic correction
Glasses correction is one of the most common and traditional methods for myopia treatment in Guangzhou ophthalmology department. Myopia can correct vision problems by wearing myopic glasses to make light fall on the retina instead of in front of it. The advantage of glasses correction is that it is safe, convenient and adaptable. Lens can be changed at any time according to the change of myopia degree. In addition, the continuous improvement of modern glasses lens materials has made glasses lenses thinner and more transparent, making the wearer more comfortable.
However, there are also some shortcomings in glasses correction. For example, wearing glasses may block the vision to a certain extent and may cause edge deformity; In addition, the correction of myopia is only temporary and will not substantially change the refractive state of the eye. Therefore, some people with high myopia or pursuing higher quality of life may seek other treatments.
Keratoscope
Corneal shaping lens is a method of correcting myopia by wearing special lenses to change the shape of the cornea. The common corneal shaping lenses in Guangzhou Eye Hospital include hard contact lenses and soft contact lenses. These two kinds of lenses change the curvature of the cornea through the positive contact with the eyes, thus changing the diopter of the eyes and achieving the effect of correcting myopia.
Compared with ophthalmic correction, corneal shaping lens has better visual effect and comfort. As the lens directly contacts the eyeball, the wearer sees less edge deformity and clearer vision. Moreover, the corneal plastic lens can correct myopia more thoroughly, and can achieve temporary improvement of naked eye vision. However, wearing contact lenses requires a certain learning and adaptation process, and improper wearing may cause eye discomfort or infection.
keratorefractive surgery
Corneal refractive surgery is a surgical method to correct myopia by cutting corneal tissue and changing its shape. The International Ophthalmology Center of an ophthalmic hospital in Guangzhou is one of the professional institutions of ophthalmic treatment. The hospital widely applies laser orthopaedic surgery (the principle is to trim the cornea tissue and change the shape of the cornea to correct myopia by laser beam), laser surface milling surgery (the principle is to change the curvature of the cornea by cutting the corneum on the front surface of the cornea to achieve the effect of correcting myopia.) And intraocular lens implantation (the principle is to correct myopia by replacing the normal eye lens).
Corneal refractive surgery is one of the most commonly used methods to treat myopia. Most of the myopic degrees after surgery can be significantly improved, and even can be seen clearly with naked eyes. Moreover, with the development of surgical technology, the surgical process is more accurate and safe, and the postoperative recovery time is also greatly shortened. However, corneal refractive surgery is not suitable for all people, such as people with insufficient corneal thickness, pregnant or lactating women, and patients with other eye diseases.
medication
Drug therapy for myopia mainly refers to the method of oral or eye medication, which can correct myopia by adjusting the posterior chamber diopter of the eye. An eye expert team from an eye hospital in Guangzhou carried out a drug research for myopia and successfully developed a drug called "Shixingxin". It is reported that "Shixingxin" has the effect of adjusting the degree of myopia, and has achieved certain curative effect in clinical application.
Drug therapy for myopia is a relatively new method, which is still in the research and experimental stage. Although the research results of "Shixingxin" are encouraging, they have not yet been widely used in clinical treatment. In addition, the correction effect of medication for myopia may not be as good as that of surgery, which requires long-term medication and attention to potential side effects and risks.
Summary
There are many ways to treat myopia in Guangzhou ophthalmology department, including glasses correction, corneal plastic lens, corneal refractive surgery and drug treatment. Glasses correction is a traditional, safe and convenient method, but it has the disadvantages of visual field occlusion and temporary correction. The reshaping lens changes the shape of the cornea through contact lenses, which is better, but the wearing process needs to be adapted. Corneal refractive surgery is one of the most commonly used methods to treat myopia at present. The evaluation before surgery and the recovery after surgery need to be careful. Drug therapy is a relatively new method, which is still in the research stage. At present, drug correction of myopia still needs further research and verification. According to personal conditions and professional suggestions, you can choose your own ophthalmic treatment methods.
