Treatment of myopia
Myopia is a common ophthalmic problem. For myopic patients, treatment methods mainly include the following:
1. Correct vision
The most common treatment for myopic patients is to improve their far vision by correcting their vision. This includes using glasses or contact lenses to help myopia patients see distant objects. The degree of glasses and contact lenses is customized according to the individual conditions of myopic patients, which can effectively help patients restore normal vision.
At the same time, some myopic patients can also improve their eyesight through specific eye exercises. These exercises include adjusting the focus of the eyeball and looking at green plants in the distance, which can increase the flexibility of the eyeball and improve vision.
2. Drug treatment
Drug treatment is another common method for myopia. Some drugs can help patients slow down the progress of myopia by improving the blood circulation of the eye and regulating the tension of the eye muscles. Most of these drugs need to be prescribed by doctors, and patients need to use them correctly according to doctor's instructions.
However, it should be noted that drug treatment can not completely cure myopia, but can only play a role in alleviating symptoms. Patients still need to continue to check their eyesight regularly and take other treatment methods to prevent further deterioration of myopia.
3. Corneal shaping lens
Orthokeratoscope is a method of correcting myopia by changing the shape of the cornea of the eye. The patient wears a specially designed corneal shaping lens at night to change the shape of the cornea by slightly squeezing the cornea, so as to improve the far vision problem. However, this method is only temporary, and you need to wear a corneal plastic lens every day, otherwise the vision problem will reoccur.
Corneal shaping lenses need professional consultation and customization from doctors. Patients should actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment plan, and correctly wear and maintain corneal shaping lenses under the guidance of doctors.
4. Laser surgery
Laser surgery is a commonly used surgical treatment method for myopia. Laser technology is used to change the shape of the cornea to correct myopia. Laser surgery can significantly improve patients' vision and reduce dependence on glasses or contact lenses.
However, laser surgery also has certain risks, including infection, dry eye, postoperative vision changes, etc. Therefore, before choosing laser surgery, patients should fully understand the risks and effects of surgery, and make decisions under the guidance of professional doctors.
Safety assurance of laser surgery
In order to ensure the safety of laser surgery, the hospital needs to take a series of measures:
1. Professional qualifications and qualified doctors
The hospital needs to have legal surgical qualifications and be equipped with experienced and skilled ophthalmologists. The hospital can judge the professional level of the hospital by checking the doctor's qualification certificate, consulting relevant information and hospital quality report.
2. Advanced equipment and technology
Laser surgery requires the use of high-precision laser equipment and advanced surgical technology. Hospitals need to invest in the purchase of the latest equipment, and regularly maintain and upgrade it to ensure the accuracy and safety of surgery.
3. Preoperative examination and evaluation
Before laser surgery, the hospital will conduct a comprehensive eye examination and evaluation for patients. These examinations include vision examination, eye health assessment, corneal topography, etc. Through detailed examination and evaluation, doctors can judge whether the patient is suitable for laser surgery and determine the most appropriate surgical program.
4. Postoperative nursing and follow-up
After laser surgery, the hospital will provide detailed postoperative nursing guidance and conduct regular follow-up. Patients need to carry out eye care and reexamination according to the doctor's recommendations to ensure stable and healthy surgical results.
Summary
The treatment methods of myopia include corrected vision, drug treatment, corneal plastic lens and laser surgery. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages, and patients should choose the appropriate treatment scheme according to their individual conditions.
Laser surgery is an effective surgical method for myopia, but patients need to make decisions under the guidance of doctors. The hospital ensures the safety of laser surgery by having professional qualifications and qualified doctors, advanced equipment and technology, preoperative inspection and evaluation, postoperative care and follow-up and other measures.
Therefore, patients should fully understand the advantages and disadvantages of various treatment methods when choosing methods to treat myopia, and make wise decisions after full communication and evaluation with doctors.
