How long is the recovery time of femtosecond technical instruments in Wuhan Tongji Hospital?
With the development of medical technology, femtosecond laser surgery has gradually become a common vision correction method. Wuhan Tongji Hospital, as a well-known hospital with advanced equipment and a team of professional doctors, also uses femtosecond technical instruments for myopia surgery. So, how long will it take to recover after the operation with this technology? The following four aspects will be described in detail: vision recovery, pain recovery, life habits recovery and physical strength recovery.
Postoperative visual acuity recovery
Femtosecond laser surgery is to cut the surface of the cornea by laser, then correct the diopter and restore vision. On the first day after surgery, patients may have blurred vision, photosensitivity and other conditions, but this is a normal reaction. As long as eye care is done well after surgery, vision will soon recover.
About one week after the operation, the vision of most patients has returned to the normal level, achieving satisfactory results. However, the speed of postoperative recovery varies from individual to individual. For some patients with high myopia, the recovery time may be slightly longer, and it needs to last one to two months to achieve the best effect.
In a word, the recovery time of vision after laser surgery with femtosecond technology is usually between 1 week and 2 months, and the specific time varies with individual differences.
Pain recovery
Femtosecond laser surgery is safer and less painful than traditional laser surgery. After surgery, patients may experience slight pain, foreign body sensation, dryness and other discomfort, but the duration is generally very short, not more than 1 week.
In addition, the hospital will provide patients with appropriate drugs to alleviate discomfort, such as pain relievers and anti-inflammatory drugs. Follow the doctor's advice and pay attention to the hygiene and care of the eyes after surgery, which can relieve the pain as soon as possible.
Habit recovery
During postoperative recovery, patients need to follow some specific living habits to ensure the surgical effect and accelerate recovery. First, avoid rubbing eyes to avoid affecting corneal healing; Secondly, avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting to prevent the eyes from being too stressed; In addition, avoid using electronic equipment for a long time and keep your eyes rested; Attention should also be paid to maintaining the humidity of the indoor air to avoid excessive drying of the eyes.
Generally, doctors will give detailed postoperative nursing guidance after the operation. As long as patients adjust their living habits according to the doctor's suggestions, they can gradually return to normal life soon.
Physical recovery
Femtosecond laser surgery has relatively little stimulation to the eyes, and the recovery of physical strength after surgery is relatively fast. After surgery, patients can properly carry out some mild physical activities, such as walking, doing housework, etc., but they should avoid strenuous exercise and eye external force collision.
Generally, the patient's physical condition can gradually return to normal one week after the operation. However, for some sports with strong eye irritation, such as swimming, basketball, etc., it may take longer to recover.
Conclusion: After myopic surgery with femtosecond technical instruments of Wuhan Tongji Hospital, the recovery time after surgery varies with individual differences and vision conditions. But generally speaking, it takes 1 week to 2 months for vision recovery, no more than 1 week for pain recovery, follow the doctor's guidance for lifestyle recovery, and relatively fast physical recovery. After surgery, patients only need to follow the doctor's advice, pay attention to eye care and lifestyle adjustment, and can quickly return to the normal level.
