Guangzhou Zhongshan Ophthalmology Department: How long does it take for myopia treatment?

Myopia is a common ophthalmic problem. In Zhongshan Ophthalmology Department, we provide a variety of treatments to help patients recover their vision. However, the duration of treatment may vary from person to person, depending on many factors. The following are some common aspects of myopia treatment.

Glasses and contact lenses

Glasses and contact lenses are one of the most common treatment methods for myopia. Glasses correct vision problems by correcting the refraction of the cornea. For patients with mild and moderate myopia, wearing glasses can immediately improve their vision. Contact lenses are more concealed and convenient, but they need to be replaced and checked regularly.

However, glasses and contact lenses are only a temporary solution to the problem and cannot cure myopia permanently. If they do not want to rely on glasses or contact lenses, patients can consider other treatments.

Keratoscope

Corneal shaping lens is a special contact lens that can change the shape of the cornea and temporarily correct vision problems. It only needs to be worn at night and can be worn without glasses during the day. This treatment is suitable for patients with mild and moderate myopia, but it needs to be checked frequently to ensure the health of the cornea.

With the continuous development of science and technology, the treatment methods for myopia are also constantly updated. We also provide the latest treatment methods in Zhongshan Ophthalmology Department to meet the needs of patients.

Refractive Surgery

Refractive surgery is a permanent method of correcting myopia, such as LASIK. Through laser cutting tissue on the cornea, change the curvature of the cornea to achieve the purpose of vision correction. Refractive surgery can not only improve myopia, but also correct other refractive errors, such as astigmatism and hyperopia.

However, refractive surgery is not suitable for everyone. Patients need to meet certain conditions and health conditions, and surgical risks need to be assessed. Before refractive surgery, we will conduct detailed examination and consultation to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the surgery.

Vision training and eye care

In addition to common treatment methods, vision training and eye care can also help improve the efficacy of myopia treatment. Vision training includes eye movement and eye muscle exercise, which can enhance the flexibility and coordination of eye muscles. Eye care includes regular eye rest and staying away from the electronic screen to reduce eye fatigue and myopia progress.

Vision training and eye care cannot cure myopia, but they can help control the process of myopia and delay the growth of degree.

Summary

In Guangzhou Zhongshan Ophthalmology Department, we provide a variety of treatment methods to help patients correct myopia. Glasses and contact lenses are the most common temporary treatment methods, while corneal plastic lenses and refractive surgery can achieve more long-term corrective effects. In addition, vision training and eye care can also help control the development of myopia. Everyone's treatment time and effect may be different, so it is recommended to consult a professional ophthalmologist to determine the most suitable treatment scheme before choosing a treatment method.
