Operation process

All femtosecond surgery is a kind of surgery that uses laser technology to correct the cornea. The whole operation process usually takes only a few minutes, and the patient can complete it under local anesthesia. During surgery, the laser will quickly scan the cornea, and evaporate the corneal tissue instantaneously to change its curvature. Because the operation is very precise, the patient usually does not feel any pain or discomfort.

Surgical effect

The main purpose of full femtosecond surgery is to correct refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. After surgery, the curvature of the cornea will be changed so that the light can be correctly focused on the retina, thus improving vision. Most patients can obviously feel the improvement of vision within a few days after surgery, and even some patients can immediately return to normal vision.

Postoperative precautions

Although the operation process is short and the pain level is low, patients still need to pay attention to some matters after the operation. First, it is necessary to avoid eye contact with water and external pollutants to avoid infection. Patients should also avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting within a few weeks after surgery to avoid eye injuries. In addition, there may be some discomfort in the eyes, such as dryness, photosensitivity and other symptoms. The patient can relieve the discomfort through eye drops and other ways.

Inpatient needs

Most patients do not need to be hospitalized after full femtosecond surgery, because the surgery does not require general anesthesia, and patients do not need to recover for a long time. The patient can go home immediately after the operation and recover according to the precautions given by the doctor. However, in very few cases, doctors may suggest hospitalization for observation according to the patient's individual conditions and operation conditions to ensure the operation effect and patient safety. Therefore, most patients do not need to be hospitalized unless specifically advised by the doctor.
