The relationship between the stability of myopia degree and laser surgery
Myopia is a visual problem caused by the inability to accurately focus on the retina when light enters the eye. The stability of myopia degree is very important for patients considering laser surgery. Generally, people's eyes will grow in different degrees when they are young, and will not gradually become stable until they become adults. Therefore, for teenagers, it is best to wait until the degree of myopia is stable before considering laser surgery.
In medicine, the stability of myopia degree is defined as that the degree change between two consecutive examinations is less than 0.50D. However, even if the degree of myopia is stable, other factors, such as age, corneal conditions, eye diseases, need to be further considered. Therefore, it is recommended that patients should have a comprehensive ophthalmic examination and professional doctor consultation before laser surgery.
Effect of laser surgery on myopia
At present, laser surgery is one of the main methods to correct myopia. Laser surgery can change the shape of the cornea so that the light can be accurately focused on the retina to correct myopia. According to the patient's specific conditions and the doctor's suggestions, the laser surgery methods available include LASIK, PRK, LASEK, etc.
The treatment effect of laser surgery on myopia varies from person to person, but in general, most patients can obtain satisfactory vision correction effect. After surgery, vision improved significantly, and no longer relied on glasses or contact lenses. However, surgery cannot completely cure myopia, and myopic patients still need regular reexamination and eye care after surgery.
Risks and precautions of laser surgery
Although laser surgery is widely used in the treatment of myopia, there are still some risks and precautions. Before the operation, the doctor will conduct a comprehensive eye examination to assess whether the patient is suitable for laser surgery. Some patients may be considered unsuitable for laser surgery due to corneal thickness, corneal diseases, severe dry eyes and other reasons.
In addition, some complications may occur after laser surgery, such as dry eyes, corneal opacity, vision changes, etc. These complications are treatable in most cases, but patients still need to pay close attention and follow the doctor's advice after surgery. The risk of various complications is related to surgical techniques, individual differences of patients and postoperative nursing.
