Precautions after femtosecond laser surgery in Wuhan Tongji Hospital

Femtosecond laser surgery is a common way to correct vision, which can effectively correct ametropia. After receiving this operation in Wuhan Tongji Hospital, patients need to pay special attention to some matters to ensure the effect of the operation and postoperative recovery. The following will elaborate on these precautions from four aspects.

Take medicine

During the recovery period after surgery, doctors usually provide patients with some eye drops and antibiotic ointment. When patients use these drugs, they should use them according to the doctor's instructions, and the dosage and frequency of use should not be changed at will. At the same time, patients should pay attention to keeping the medication appliances clean to avoid bacterial infection.

In addition to the medicine prescribed by the doctor, the patient also needs to avoid taking some drugs that may affect the recovery of eyes and vision, such as drugs containing aspirin and ibuprofen, to avoid adverse effects on postoperative recovery.

In addition, patients also need to avoid drinking and smoking, which will delay the healing process after surgery.

Eye protection

Postoperative patients should correctly protect their eyes from external collision and stimulation, so as not to affect the surgical effect and postoperative recovery. Patients need to avoid rubbing their eyes, especially the action of rubbing eyes may bring about the risk of bacterial infection.

When washing face and hair, patients should try to avoid water or shampoo entering the eyes, and can use a bathcap or foam plastic to cover the eyes to ensure the cleanness and safety of the eyes.

In addition, patients should also avoid certain sports and activities, such as swimming, diving and strenuous exercise, in the days after surgery to avoid eye trauma or infection.

Keep moderate rest

Postoperative patients need to keep adequate rest, especially for the eyes. Patients need to avoid using electronic products such as mobile phones, computers and televisions for a long time to reduce eye fatigue.

When sleeping, the patient can use the eye mask or shading curtain recommended by the doctor to ensure good sleep quality and promote the recovery of the eye.

In addition, patients can also carry out eye health care methods such as eye massage and eye health exercises to promote eye blood circulation and relax eye muscles.

Regular follow-up

Patients after surgery should be regularly revisited according to the time appointed by the doctor. During the follow-up visit, the doctor will check the patient's vision to evaluate the surgical effect and postoperative recovery.

Patients can consult the doctor about some eye care and precautions when they return regularly, so as to properly care for and protect their eyes.

By following the doctor's advice and precautions, patients can better promote postoperative recovery, reduce the risk of complications, and ultimately achieve good visual effects.

Summary

Postoperative precautions are critical for any operation, as are femtosecond laser surgery. Taking medicine, eye protection, keeping moderate rest and regular follow-up are the key points for postoperative attention. Only by following these precautions can patients ensure the effect of surgery and postoperative recovery.
