How do Zhongshan ophthalmologists perform myopic surgery?
Myopia is a common ophthalmic problem, and myopia surgery can effectively correct this problem. As a well-known ophthalmic medical institution, Zhongshan Eye Hospital has accumulated rich experience in myopia surgery. The following will describe in detail how Zhongshan ophthalmologists perform myopia surgery from four aspects: preoperative preparation, surgical process, postoperative nursing and surgical effect.
Preoperative preparation
Before myopic surgery, Zhongshan ophthalmologist will conduct a comprehensive eye examination to determine the feasibility of the surgery. These examinations may include vision measurement, corneal topography, fundus examination, etc. The doctor will also ask the patient's medical history in detail to learn about the previous surgery and drug use.
After confirming that the operation is feasible, the doctor will explain the operation process and risks to the patient in detail, and help the patient to develop the operation plan. The doctor will introduce different surgical methods for myopia to patients, such as laser refractive surgery (LASIK), femtosecond laser keratomileusis (FSK), etc., and formulate the most suitable surgical plan according to the patients' eye conditions and needs.
In addition, Zhongshan ophthalmologist will further evaluate the patient's eyes, such as measuring corneal thickness, mydriasis and optometry. These assessments can help doctors more accurately understand the patient's eye conditions to ensure the safety and effectiveness of surgery.
Operation process
When performing myopia surgery, Zhongshan ophthalmologist will use advanced medical equipment to operate according to the surgery plan prepared in advance. The specific surgical procedures may vary according to different surgical methods. Take laser refractive surgery (LASIK) as an example:
First, the doctor creates a thin flap on the surface of the patient's eye, and then folds the flap to one side. Next, doctors will use lasers to reshape the curvature of the cornea to improve vision problems. The laser will operate according to the pre input parameters to avoid excessive keratomileusis.
The entire procedure usually takes only a few minutes, and the patient usually does not feel pain or discomfort. During the operation, the doctor will closely monitor the patient's eye condition and timely adjust the operating parameters of the laser to ensure the accuracy and safety of the operation.
Postoperative care
After the myopia surgery, Zhongshan ophthalmologist will explain the postoperative care items to the patient in detail to promote healing and prevent infection. The doctor may advise the patient to use antibiotic eyedrops and avoid external irritation to the eyes, such as strong light and dust.
The doctor will also arrange for patients to have regular follow-up visits to assess the effect of the operation and deal with any complications in a timely manner. In the follow-up visit after surgery, the doctor will check the patient's vision, understand the patient's symptoms and comfort, and make further treatment or adjustment as needed.
In general, postoperative care is very important for the success of surgery and patient satisfaction. Zhongshan ophthalmologists will strictly require patients to take care according to the doctor's orders to ensure the durability and stability of the surgical effect.
Surgical effect
Zhongshan ophthalmologists perform myopia surgery to provide clear vision for patients and reduce or eliminate dependence on glasses or contact lenses. The effect of the operation usually appears in a few days to weeks after the operation, and continues to improve. Most patients can enjoy better vision and higher quality of life after surgery.
To sum up, Zhongshan ophthalmologists will make detailed preoperative preparation and eye assessment when performing myopia surgery, and then formulate the most appropriate surgical plan according to the needs of patients. During the operation, the doctor will use advanced equipment to operate and closely monitor the patient's eye condition. Postoperative care and regular follow-up can ensure the durability and stability of the surgical effect. Zhongshan ophthalmologists' professional knowledge and rich experience enable them to provide safe and effective myopia surgery for patients.
