Shanghai Ophthalmology Hospital _ New Vision 28: Is it necessary to be hospitalized for observation after surgery?
With the continuous development of science and technology, modern medicine has made great breakthroughs in the field of ophthalmology. As a first-class ophthalmic medical institution in China, Shanghai Eye Hospital has introduced advanced New Vision 28 surgical technology to solve people's vision problems. However, for patients, it is a key issue whether they need to be observed in hospital after receiving this advanced technology. This article will elaborate whether they need to be observed in hospital from four aspects: the content of surgery, postoperative symptoms, complication risks and personal conditions.
Operation content
New Horizon 28 is a laser surgery used to correct myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and other ophthalmic problems. The operation is very short, and it usually takes only a few minutes to complete. This operation is non-invasive and does not require surgery or contact with the patient's eyeball, so the risk is low. Due to the simplicity and safety of the operation, most patients can leave the hospital immediately after the operation without hospitalization observation.
However, in rare cases, some patients may have postoperative complications or surgical indications. These conditions may require doctors to observe and treat patients for a longer time. Therefore, for individual patients with complex conditions, hospitalization observation may be required to ensure safety.
Postoperative symptoms
Postoperative symptoms are one of the important factors that determine whether hospitalization observation is necessary. Generally speaking, some slight discomfort will appear after the operation of New Vision 28, such as ametropia, blurred vision, allergic reaction, etc. These symptoms gradually disappear within a few days after surgery, and will not have a greater impact on the daily life of patients.
However, some patients may have serious complications, such as increased intraocular pressure, infection, etc. These complications may pose a serious threat to the patient's eyes and require close observation and treatment. In this case, hospitalization observation is necessary.
Risk of complications
The risk of complications of New Horizon 28 surgery is relatively low, but it does not mean that there is no risk. Some potential risks may occur according to the patient's personal conditions and operating techniques during the operation. Common complications include postoperative xerophthalmia, keratitis, postoperative infection, etc.
For patients with normal conditions, the incidence of these complications is very low, and can be effectively prevented and treated through timely eye care and medication. Therefore, most patients do not need to be hospitalized for observation, just follow the doctor's instructions for postoperative care. However, for high-risk patients or patients with high probability of surgical complications, hospitalization observation is a necessary means to ensure patient safety.
Personal information
The last factor that affects whether hospitalization observation is needed is the patient's personal situation. Age, physical condition, pre-operative eye disease and other factors will affect the need for in-hospital observation.
Generally speaking, young and healthy patients do not need to be hospitalized for observation. They can rest at home and pay attention to postoperative care. However, elderly patients or patients with other systemic diseases may need more care and observation, so as to prevent patients from not receiving timely treatment when their condition worsens.
summary
To sum up, many factors, such as the operation content, postoperative symptoms, complication risk and personal conditions, need to be taken into consideration when it comes to whether New Horizon 28 needs to be hospitalized for observation after the operation. For most patients, in-hospital observation is not necessary, but some patients with complex conditions or high risks may need to receive longer observation and treatment in the hospital. Before receiving surgery, patients should fully communicate with the doctor, understand their personal situation and surgical content, and make decisions according to the doctor's suggestions.
