The Importance of Ophthalmic Surgery in the Elderly

Eye surgery for the elderly is one of the key methods to help the elderly solve eye problems. With the growth of age, the eyes of the elderly will have various diseases and problems, such as cataract, glaucoma, macular lesions, etc. These problems will affect the vision and quality of life of the elderly. Therefore, ophthalmic surgery is one of the important ways to improve the quality of life of the elderly.

Ophthalmic surgery for the elderly

There are many hospitals in Guangzhou that provide a variety of eye surgery for the elderly. Several common operations are described below.

cataract surgery

Cataract is a common eye disease in the elderly. It will lead to blurred eyes, seriously affecting vision. Cataract surgery is to restore vision by removing the damaged lens and implanting an intraocular lens. This kind of operation is usually a relatively simple and safe operation, which can quickly restore vision. Many ophthalmic hospitals in Guangzhou provide high-quality cataract surgery services, such as Guangdong Zhongshan Ophthalmology Center and the Ophthalmology Department of the General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Region.

Glaucoma surgery

Glaucoma is one of the common eye diseases in the elderly. It is caused by optic nerve injury caused by elevated intraocular pressure. The purpose of glaucoma surgery is to reduce the intraocular pressure, so as to reduce the damage of the optic nerve. Common glaucoma surgery includes drug therapy, laser therapy and surgery. The hospitals in Guangzhou have advanced equipment and professional doctors, which can provide safe and effective surgical treatment for the elderly with glaucoma.

Surgery for macular lesions

Macular lesions are one of the common causes of vision loss in the elderly. The macular department is responsible for central vision. When the macular department has lesions, it will lead to blurred vision or blindness. At present, the main method to treat macular lesions is to use anti vascular endothelial growth factor drugs for injection treatment. This treatment can effectively stabilize the condition and help to restore some vision. Many ophthalmic hospitals in Guangzhou provide injection therapy for macular lesions, such as Guangzhou Mengzhidao Eye Hospital, Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital Eye Department, etc.

Myopic surgery

With the increase of age, the occurrence of myopia in the elderly gradually increases. Myopic surgery is an effective way to help the elderly get rid of glasses or contact lenses. At present, the common myopia surgery includes corneal refractive surgery (LASIK), ultrasonic refractive surgery (ICL) and so on. These operations correct vision by changing the curvature of the cornea or inserting lenses into the eye. The eye hospital in Guangzhou provides advanced myopia surgery technology, which can provide personalized surgical treatment for the elderly.

Summary

Guangzhou has many ophthalmic operations suitable for the elderly, including cataract surgery, glaucoma surgery, macular surgery and myopia surgery. These operations can help the elderly solve various eye problems and improve their quality of life. Before choosing surgery, the elderly should consult a professional ophthalmologist and conduct a comprehensive examination and evaluation.
