How does the ophthalmologist of Guangzhou Zhongshan Third Hospital treat ametropia?
Ametropia is a common eye disease, which can lead to blurred vision and eye fatigue. The ophthalmologists of the Third Hospital of Zhongshan, Guangzhou have accumulated rich experience in the treatment of refractive errors and used various methods to help patients recover good vision. The following four aspects will be described in detail: glasses and contact lenses, drug treatment, keratoplasty and surgical treatment.
Glasses and contact lenses
Glasses are one of the most common refractive correction tools. According to the patient's vision, the ophthalmologists of Guangzhou Zhongshan Third Hospital will prepare glasses suitable for ametropia. Glasses can correct the vision problems caused by ametropia and improve the visual quality of patients by adjusting the degree of lenses.
Contact lenses are another option for patients who do not want to wear glasses. The ophthalmologists of the Third Hospital of Zhongshan, Guangzhou will choose the appropriate contact lenses according to the patients' eyeball conditions. Contact lenses are in direct contact with the eyeball, which can correct ametropia by directly adjusting the curvature of the eyeball. The oxygen permeability of contact lenses has also been greatly improved, allowing patients to wear them for a long time and improving the quality of vision.
However, glasses and contact lenses cannot cure ametropia and can only temporarily improve vision. Therefore, the ophthalmologists of Guangzhou Zhongshan Third Hospital will recommend other treatments.
medication
In some special cases, medication can help patients correct refractive errors. For example, high intraocular pressure may lead to myopia. The ophthalmologists of Guangzhou Zhongshan Third Hospital will control the patients' intraocular pressure through drugs to reduce the symptoms of ametropia.
In addition, some drugs can improve hyperopia or myopia by changing the shape and elasticity of the lens. Ophthalmologists will choose appropriate drugs and treatment methods according to the patient's condition to help the patient restore normal vision.
Keratoplasty
Corneoplasty is a method of correcting refractive errors by laser. The ophthalmologists of the Third Hospital of Zhongshan, Guangzhou can determine the appropriate corneal plastic surgery methods, such as LASIK and PRK, according to the patient's refractive error.
LASIK (keratomileusis) is a common corneal plastic surgery. It changes the curvature of the cornea by cutting the cornea and using laser correction, so as to correct refractive errors. PRK (surface optical correction) directly affects the surface of the cornea through laser to change the shape of the cornea. These corneal reshaping methods are safe and effective, and the recovery period is short. The ophthalmologists of Guangzhou Zhongshan Third Hospital will carefully evaluate the patient's conditions before surgery to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the treatment.
surgical treatment
In some cases of severe ametropia, surgical treatment may be the best choice. The ophthalmologists of Guangzhou Zhongshan Third Hospital can use different surgical methods, such as intraocular lens implantation and cataract extraction, according to the patient's refractive error.
Intraocular lens implantation is suitable for those patients with lens dysplasia or other reasons that cannot be adjusted normally. During the operation, the ophthalmologists of Guangzhou Zhongshan Third Hospital will implant intraocular lens into the eyeball to replace the function of the original lens, thus correcting the ametropia.
Cataract extraction is suitable for those cataract patients with ametropia. The ophthalmologists of Guangzhou Zhongshan Third Hospital will solve the problem of ametropia by removing the problematic cataract and implanting the intraocular lens.
In a word, the ophthalmologists of the Third Hospital of Zhongshan, Guangzhou, help patients to treat refractive errors through glasses and contact lenses, medication, keratoplasty, surgery and other methods. Patients can choose appropriate treatment plans with experts according to their own conditions to restore good vision.
