1. Definition and principle of ICL surgery
ICL surgery, also known as Implantable Lens Implantation, is an ophthalmic surgery that corrects myopia by implanting foldable intraocular lenses. Compared with traditional laser surgery, ICL surgery is more suitable for patients with high myopia, insufficient corneal thickness or worry about postoperative dryness.
The principle of ICL surgery is to use a foldable intraocular lens to change the optical system between the anterior chamber of the eye and the lens, so as to achieve the effect of correcting myopia. During surgery, doctors will implant the intraocular lens into the eye through a small incision, and then position it behind the iris to change the optical focus of the eye, so as to correct myopia.
ICL surgery can adapt to the patient's degree and eye characteristics through customized intraocular lens, and patients can obtain clear and stable vision improvement after surgery.
2. Professional level of Wuhan Tongji Hospital
Wuhan Tongji Hospital is a well-known general hospital in Wuhan, and ophthalmology is one of its key departments. The hospital has a team of experienced ophthalmologists who have rich practical experience and expertise in ophthalmic surgery.
The ophthalmology department of Wuhan Tongji Hospital has advanced medical equipment and technology in China, including high-precision laser surgery equipment and advanced postoperative detection equipment. At the same time, the hospital also cooperates with a number of domestic and foreign ophthalmic professional institutions to carry out scientific research cooperation and academic exchanges, so that its ophthalmic technology remains at the forefront of the industry.
Therefore, if Wuhan Tongji Hospital is selected for ICL surgery, patients can obtain high-level ophthalmic medical services and improve the safety and effect of the surgery.
3. Advantages of ICL surgery
ICL surgery has the following advantages over traditional laser surgery:
First, ICL surgery has a wide range of applications. Compared with corneal surgery, ICL surgery can adapt to patients with higher myopia, and is not limited by corneal shape, thickness and other factors.
Secondly, ICL surgery is reversible. After ICL surgery, if necessary, the patient can take out the intraocular lens through a second operation to restore the state of the eyes before surgery.
In addition, ICL surgery will not cause postoperative dryness. Compared with the corneal ablation method in laser surgery, ICL surgery will not damage the corneal plexus, so patients are not prone to dry and astringent symptoms in the recovery period after surgery.
4. Curative effect of ICL surgery on myopia
ICL surgery can be said to be a "permanent" method to correct myopia. The patients can get clear vision improvement through ICL surgery, and there is almost no rebound of myopia after surgery.
The intraocular lens implanted in ICL surgery is foldable and will not produce peripheral irritation with the eye tissue, so the eye tissue recovers well and has better stability after surgery. The patients do not need too many restrictions in their daily life after surgery. They can carry out various activities normally and avoid the inconvenience caused by the use of glasses and contact lenses.
Although ICL surgery has a good curative effect on myopia, patients still need to conduct detailed evaluation and consultation with professional doctors before choosing surgery to determine the indications and risks of surgery.
summary
To sum up, ICL surgery in Wuhan Tongji Hospital has clear advantages in the treatment of myopia. Through ICL surgery, patients can not only obtain a clear degree of improvement, almost no myopic rebound phenomenon, and the surgical process is relatively safe. Under the guidance of the experienced ophthalmic expert team of Wuhan Tongji Hospital, patients can operate at ease.
