Who is suitable for refractive surgery in Xi'an?
Ophthalmic refractive surgery is a kind of surgery that corrects the diopter through laser technology to help people get rid of myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and other vision problems. Xi'an has some excellent eye hospitals, such as Shaanxi Provincial Eye Hospital, Xi'an Zhengda Eye Hospital, etc. They provide a variety of eye refractive surgery programs, suitable for different populations.
Myopic patient
Myopia is a common refractive problem, and patients will have blurred vision when looking at objects from a distance. Ophthalmic refractive surgery is a very suitable choice for myopia patients.
First, laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is a common refractive surgery for patients with low myopia. This operation uses laser technology to make micro incision on the corneal surface, and then use laser to correct myopia. This method of operation recovers quickly and has stable vision after operation.
Secondly, for patients with high myopia, lens implantation is a better choice. This kind of surgery can correct myopia by implanting intraocular lens. After surgery, patients no longer need to rely on glasses or contact lenses to correct their vision.
In addition, keratoplasty is an effective refractive surgery for children with myopia. This operation can reduce the degree of myopia by correcting the shape of the cornea, which is helpful to the development of children's vision.
Hyperopia
Hyperopia is a common refractive problem, and patients will have blurred vision when they look at objects near. Ophthalmic refractive surgery also has some adaptability for hyperopia patients.
The hyperopia patients with low myopia can choose laser in situ keratomileusis for correction. This operation can correct hyperopia by changing the shape of the cornea, and patients can reduce or no longer rely on glasses after the operation.
High myopia hyperopia patients can choose lens implantation. Implanted intraocular lens can help correct hyperopia and let patients get rid of the shackles of glasses.
Astigmatic patient
Astigmatism is a common refractive problem, and patients will have blurred vision at all distances. Ophthalmic refractive surgery also has certain adaptability for astigmatism patients.
Laser keratoplasty (PRK) is a common operation for the treatment of astigmatism. The astigmatism is corrected by changing the shape of the cornea with a direct laser, and the patient's vision can be significantly improved after the operation.
For patients with high astigmatism, lens implantation is a better choice. The implanted intraocular lens can correct the astigmatism degree, so that patients can get rid of glasses or contact lenses.
Age adaptability
The suitable age range for refractive surgery in ophthalmology is generally 18-50 years old. People over 18 years old with basically stable eye development are suitable for surgery.
However, for patients over 50 years old, due to presbyopia caused by aging of intraocular lens, ophthalmic refractive surgery may not achieve significant results. At this time, multifocal intraocular lens implantation is a more suitable choice, which can correct presbyopia and other refractive problems at the same time.
To sum up, Xi'an ophthalmic refractive surgery is suitable for myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and people aged 18-50. Different surgical methods can be selected according to the specific conditions and needs of patients. Through these operations, patients can significantly improve their vision and improve their quality of life.
