Difference between femtosecond and traditional laser surgery in Yulin Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital

With the development of medical technology, laser surgery has become an effective method to correct vision in ophthalmology. In ophthalmic surgery, the femtosecond laser surgery technology introduced by Yulin Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine is significantly different from the traditional laser surgery. This article elaborates the difference between femtosecond and traditional laser surgery in Yulin Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from four aspects: corneal cutting mode, surgical pain, recovery time and surgical accuracy.

Corneal cutting mode

Traditional laser surgery uses mechanical blades or scrapers to cut the cornea. Adjustable beds and microscopes are required in the surgery. The femtosecond laser surgery in Yulin Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine uses a knife free, non-contact laser to cut the cornea through ultra fast laser pulses. Because there is no contact with the mechanical blade, femtosecond laser surgery is more gentle to the patient's eyes and reduces the surgical trauma.

In addition, femtosecond laser surgery can also accurately cut different corneal shapes to meet different needs for corrected vision. It can be adjusted according to the individual corneal curvature to achieve more precise and personalized therapeutic effect.

Surgical pain

In traditional laser surgery, patients may feel pain or discomfort due to the use of mechanical blades to cut the cornea. The femtosecond laser surgery uses a knife free, non-contact laser cutting mode, so patients can hardly feel obvious pain during the operation. This greatly improves the patient's surgical experience and reduces the discomfort during the operation.

recovery time

The recovery time of traditional laser surgery is relatively long, and it often takes 1-2 weeks or even longer to restore normal vision after surgery. Femtosecond laser surgery is more accurate, less corneal damage, and rapid recovery after surgery. Normally, patients can recover to normal vision in only a few days, greatly reducing the troubles during the recovery period.

Surgical accuracy

Femtosecond laser surgery has high surgical accuracy. It can more accurately control the cutting depth, cutting shape, femtosecond position and other parameters, and reduce the uncertainty of surgery. This makes the operation safer and more reliable. Traditional laser surgery is relatively low in accuracy due to the use of mechanical blade cutting. The surgical results may be affected by factors such as the deviation of the blade and the operating level of the operator.

In conclusion, compared with traditional laser surgery, the femtosecond laser surgery in Yulin Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine has the advantages of more gentle corneal cutting, less pain, shorter recovery time and higher surgical accuracy. This makes the femtosecond laser surgery in Yulin Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine become the preferred method to treat myopia and other eye diseases, providing patients with a safer and more comfortable surgical experience.
