Is femtosecond surgery painless in Wuhan Tongji Hospital?
In recent years, with the progress of medical technology, femtosecond laser surgery, as a common myopia correction surgery, is favored. However, for many patients, the degree of pain during surgery is one of their most concerned issues. In view of whether the femtosecond surgery in Wuhan Tongji Hospital is painless, we will elaborate on it from four aspects: the surgical process, anesthesia mode, postoperative recovery and patient feedback.
Operation process
Femtosecond surgery is to correct myopia by laser cutting the cornea. Although the short cutting process may bring some discomfort to patients, the femtosecond surgery in Tongji Hospital is characterized by fast and efficient. The whole operation usually takes only a few minutes, and the patient can complete the operation quickly. Compared with the traditional laser myopia correction surgery, the femtosecond surgery is more accurate in the cutting process, reducing the risk of thinning the cornea, thus reducing the possibility of postoperative pain.
In Tongji Hospital, the doctor will explain the operation process to the patient in detail before the operation, and provide sedatives and other drugs to alleviate discomfort according to the patient's condition. During the operation, the doctor will also fully communicate with the patient and adjust the operation steps and speed to ensure the patient's comfort.
Anesthesia mode
Anesthesia is very important for femtosecond surgery. Tongji Hospital adopts local anesthesia, that is, the cornea and periocular tissues are anesthetized by eyedrops of anesthetics, so that patients can stay awake during the operation. Compared with general anesthesia, local anesthesia is more safe and reliable, and also reduces postoperative discomfort.
Before the operation, the doctor will carefully check the patient's eye condition and evaluate the method and dose of anesthesia. Sufficient preparation before operation and professional operation of doctors can ensure postoperative comfort. The anesthesiologist of Tongji Hospital will monitor the vital signs of patients throughout the operation and make timely adjustments to ensure the safety and comfort of patients.
Postoperative recovery
The recovery after femtosecond surgery is usually faster than traditional laser myopia correction surgery. Generally speaking, patients will feel some discomfort after surgery, such as slight pain, dry eyes, etc., but these symptoms will gradually alleviate. Tongji Hospital will give patients certain pain relief drugs and eye care guidance after surgery to reduce postoperative discomfort.
Patients need to pay attention to keeping their eyes clean after surgery, and use eye drops according to the doctor's instructions. Generally, patients can gradually return to normal life and work within a few days after surgery. Of course, the recovery after surgery is also related to the individual's physique and self condition.
Patient feedback
Many patients who performed femtosecond surgery in Tongji Hospital said that they felt almost no pain during the operation. They reported that the whole operation process was smooth and comfortable under the meticulous operation and care of doctors. During postoperative recovery, although slight discomfort may occur, the quality of life of patients has been significantly improved.
In a word, the femtosecond surgery in Wuhan Tongji Hospital can show painless characteristics in many aspects, such as the operation process, anesthesia mode, postoperative recovery and patient feedback. Of course, the experience of each patient may be slightly different, but on the whole, the femtosecond surgery of Tongji Hospital can effectively reduce the pain of patients and improve the comfort of surgery.
Therefore, patients can safely choose the femtosecond surgery of Tongji Hospital for myopia correction in order to obtain better vision and quality of life.
