Revolution in the optometry industry: a few days of rest after myopia surgery

Under the tide of the information age, our lifestyle and work habits have undergone earth shaking changes. However, for many myopic patients, wearing glasses or contact lenses has become a part of their lives. Fortunately, with the progress of technology, myopia surgery has become an increasingly popular solution. However, proper rest is needed after the operation to ensure the success of the operation.

What is myopic surgery?

Myopia surgery is an operation to correct myopia by changing the structure of the eyeball* Common surgical methods include laser refractive surgery and lens implantation surgery. These surgical procedures need a certain amount of time to recover to ensure that the eyes can adapt to the new refractive conditions.

Why do we need proper rest?

Myopia surgery is a minimally invasive surgery, but it will still cause some trauma to the eyeball. Proper rest can reduce the discomfort after surgery, promote the recovery of wounds, and protect the health of eyes to a large extent.

Rest time after operation

According to different surgical methods and individual differences, the rest time after surgery will be different. Generally speaking, most patients need to rest for 1 to 2 days after surgery. During this period of time, patients need to avoid watching TV, computer screens and other exposure to too much light stimulation, and try to keep their eyes at rest.

If there are any uncomfortable symptoms after the operation, such as eye pain, dry eyes, blurred vision, etc., the patient should immediately consult the doctor. The doctor will further evaluate the patient's condition and give corresponding treatment and suggestions.

Precautions after operation

In addition to rest, patients also need to pay attention to the following matters:

• Avoid rubbing eyes: the eyes after surgery are very fragile, and you should avoid eye rubbing, eye wiping and other stimulating actions.
• Avoid strenuous exercise: The patient should avoid strenuous exercise for a period of time after surgery to avoid increasing intraocular pressure.

Postoperative effects and precautions

For most patients, myopia surgery can significantly improve vision and reduce dependence on glasses or contact lenses. However, there are some precautions after surgery:

• Keep good hygiene habits: After surgery, patients should strengthen eye hygiene to avoid eye infection.
• Regular return visit: After the operation, the patient should follow the doctor's advice for regular return visit to ensure the operation effect and eye health.

In a word, myopia surgery is a revolutionary treatment, which can change people's dependence on life and work. However, recuperation after operation is also an important link to ensure the success of the operation. Proper rest and precautions will contribute to the recovery and health of the eyeball. Therefore, if you plan to have myopia surgery, be sure to give your eyes enough rest time after the surgery to ensure the effect of the surgery and your vision.
