Shanghai New Vision Eye Private Hospital
Shanghai New Vision Eye Private Hospital is a professional eye hospital located in Shanghai, providing diagnosis, treatment and surgical services for eye diseases. For patients, it is a very important decision whether to perform ophthalmic surgery. Next, we will elaborate on how to determine whether surgery is necessary from four aspects.
Diagnosis and suggestions of professional doctors
First of all, the diagnosis and advice of professional doctors is an important basis for judging whether ophthalmic surgery is necessary. Patients should go to a regular hospital for eye examination to determine the cause and severity of eye problems. The doctor will give the patient advice on whether to need surgery according to the examination results and clinical experience. Generally speaking, if the patient's eye problems can be treated by non-surgical means, the doctor will recommend non-surgical treatment.
Secondly, the diagnosis and advice of professional doctors should be fully trusted by patients. If the patient has questions about the doctor's diagnosis results or suggestions, he can ask the doctor to explain the reasons and necessity in detail. Patients can also consider seeking advice from a second professional doctor in order to make a more informed decision.
*After that, patients need to seriously consider the doctor's suggestions and comprehensively consider the risks and benefits of surgery. Although the doctor's advice is an important reference factor, the final decision is made by the patient himself. Patients should fully understand the risks and possible complications of surgery, weigh the impact of surgery on their quality of life and myopia correction effect, and make a decision suitable for themselves.
Severity and impact of symptoms
In addition to the doctor's advice, the severity of symptoms and their impact on the quality of life are also important factors in determining whether ophthalmic surgery is necessary. If the patient's symptoms are very mild and have little impact on his life, he may be able to temporarily postpone the operation and choose other non-surgical treatment methods. However, if the symptoms are serious and continue to affect work, study or daily life, surgery may be a better choice.
In addition, the duration of symptoms and the impact on the patient's eye function need to be considered. If the patient's eye problems have been existing and gradually worsened, resulting in decreased vision or other functional impairment, surgery may be inevitable. In this case, surgery can better improve the patient's condition and avoid further deterioration.
In conclusion, when judging whether ophthalmic surgery is necessary, it is necessary to comprehensively assess the severity and impact of symptoms in order to make a wise decision.
Effect and duration of non-surgical treatment
The effect and duration of non-surgical treatment is also one of the important factors to determine whether ophthalmic surgery is necessary. Some eye diseases or problems can be controlled or alleviated through non operative methods such as eye drops, eye massage, eye exercises, etc. If non-surgical treatment can effectively alleviate symptoms and lasts for a long time, surgery may not be necessary.
However, surgery may be a better choice for some diseases that need long-term non-surgical treatment and have unstable effects, such as glaucoma or keratopathy. Surgery can solve the root cause of eye problems, so that patients no longer need to frequently use eyedrops or other non-surgical treatment. This can reduce the burden of patients and improve the efficacy.
Safety and feasibility of operation
*After that, the safety and feasibility of the operation should also be considered when judging whether ophthalmic surgery is necessary. Operation is a kind of traumatic treatment method, there must be some risks. Patients need to fully communicate with professional doctors to understand the risks and possible complications of surgery, so as to make reasonable decisions.
In addition, the feasibility of the operation also needs to be considered. Some eye diseases or problems may not be suitable for surgery, or the effect of surgery is poor. Through communication and evaluation with professional doctors, we can know whether the surgery can really solve the patient's eye problems and achieve good expected results.
Summary
To sum up, to determine whether ophthalmic surgery is necessary, we need to comprehensively consider the diagnosis and recommendations of professional doctors, the severity and impact of symptoms, the effect and duration of non-surgical treatment, and the safety and feasibility of surgery. Through in-depth communication with doctors, patients can fully understand the causes of their eye problems and treatment options, so as to make wise decisions. Whether surgery is selected or not, the patient's eye health and quality of life are always important.
