Unique scientific research project of Zhongshan Eye Hospital
As a hospital specializing in ophthalmic diagnosis and research, Zhongshan Eye Hospital has been committed to promoting innovation and development in the field of ophthalmology. In ophthalmic research, the hospital actively carried out a number of unique scientific research projects, providing better medical services for patients from different aspects.
Project 1: Glaucoma gene therapy research
Glaucoma is an eye disease that seriously affects people's vision. The glaucoma gene therapy research project carried out by Zhongshan Ophthalmology Hospital explores new methods for treating glaucoma by studying the genetic genes of glaucoma. The project searches for mutation genes related to glaucoma through gene detection and analysis of patients, and intervenes through gene therapy. At present, the project has made some progress, providing more personalized and accurate treatment for glaucoma patients.
In addition to gene therapy, Zhongshan Eye Hospital also reduces the incidence of glaucoma through other means. For example, the hospital actively carries out the early screening of glaucoma, through regular intraocular pressure testing and fundus examination, early detection and intervention of patients, so as to reduce the development and progress of glaucoma.
Project 2: Research on retinal stem cell therapy
Retinal diseases are one of the common causes of blindness. The retinal stem cell therapy research project of Zhongshan Eye Hospital uses the characteristics of stem cells to repair damaged retinal tissue and restore patients' visual function. The research team of this project searches for effective stem cell transplantation methods and carries out relevant clinical experiments by studying the differentiation and replication mechanism of stem cells.
The research project of retinal stem cell therapy in Zhongshan Eye Hospital has been carried out in some patients, and the preliminary experimental results show that this method can help some patients with retinal diseases recover their vision. The promotion of this project will bring new hope to blind patients and explore more potential treatment methods in clinical practice.
Project 3: Research on artificial intelligence assisted ophthalmic diagnosis and treatment
With the development of artificial intelligence, Zhongshan Eye Hospital actively explores the application of artificial intelligence technology in ophthalmic diagnosis and treatment. By using artificial intelligence algorithms to analyze a large number of eye disease data, doctors can be provided with more accurate diagnosis and treatment suggestions.
The artificial intelligence assisted ophthalmic diagnosis and treatment research project of Zhongshan Eye Hospital uses deep learning algorithm to automatically analyze and diagnose the fundus photos and visual field examination results. This technology can quickly detect fundus lesions and visual field loss, and provide personalized treatment suggestions. At present, the project has been popularized and used in the ophthalmic clinic of the hospital, and has achieved good results, improving the accuracy and efficiency of ophthalmic diagnosis and treatment.
Project 4: Research on new technology of corneal transplantation
Corneal diseases are another important cause of blindness. The new corneal transplantation technology research project of Zhongshan Eye Hospital is committed to finding better corneal transplantation methods and matching technologies, and improving the success rate and postoperative effect of corneal transplantation.
The project team studied different kinds of corneal transplantation techniques, including full thickness corneal transplantation, anterior corneal transplantation and posterior corneal transplantation. By comparing the effects and complications of different techniques, we can find the most suitable corneal transplantation method for different patients. At the same time, the project also studied the new corneal matching technology to improve the survival rate and postoperative effect of corneal grafts.
To sum up, the unique scientific research project of Zhongshan Eye Hospital has carried out research from four aspects: gene therapy, stem cell therapy, artificial intelligence assisted diagnosis and treatment, and corneal transplantation, and has made some progress. The implementation of these projects will provide more treatment options and hopes for ophthalmic patients, which is expected to promote scientific and technological innovation and development in the field of ophthalmology.
