Precautions after ophthalmic surgery in Xi'an
With the improvement of medical level, ophthalmic surgery has become a relatively safe and reliable treatment method. For postoperative patients, compliance with postoperative precautions plays a vital role in the recovery of the surgical effect. The following will elaborate the precautions after Xi'an ophthalmic surgery from four aspects.
Postoperative rest and diet
Postoperative rest is the key to successful recovery. Try to avoid strenuous activities, such as carrying heavy objects and running, within one week after the operation to avoid increasing eye pressure. In addition, try to avoid using your eyes for a long time and staying up late to ensure full rest of your eyes. In terms of diet, pay attention to eating less spicy and stimulating food to avoid adverse eye irritation.
In terms of postoperative diet, it is advisable to eat more foods rich in vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin A, etc., such as citrus fruits, green leafy vegetables, carrots, etc., to promote the healing of eye wounds. At the same time, maintain a balanced diet and avoid excessive intake of oil and sugar to maintain the balance of nutrition in the body.
In addition, drinking and smoking should be avoided after surgery, because alcohol and tobacco can delay wound healing and increase the risk of infection.
Postoperative eye care
Postoperative eye care is the key link of postoperative recovery. After surgery, the patient needs to do a good job of eye cleaning, and use the eye drops recommended by the doctor to wash the eyes. When washing eyes, pay attention to wiping gently with gauze or cotton swab to avoid directly touching the eyes with hands.
During postoperative recovery, patients need to keep their eyes moist. They can often drip eyedrops recommended by doctors to avoid discomfort caused by dry eyes. In addition, postoperative patients should avoid rubbing or wiping their eyes, so as not to affect the postoperative effect.
In case of eye pain, foreign body sensation, vision loss and other uncomfortable symptoms after the operation, seek medical advice from the doctor in time for timely treatment.
Avoid eye infection
Postoperative patients should pay special attention to avoid eye infection. First, keep your hands clean and try to avoid touching your eyes with your hands. Secondly, avoid wearing contact lenses, especially hard contact lenses, to avoid increasing the risk of eye irritation and infection. In addition, avoid contact with pollutants, such as dust and sewage, to avoid eye infection.
In the use of cosmetics, eye cosmetics, especially eyeliner and mascara, should be avoided after surgery to avoid eye irritation. If you need to use cosmetics, you should choose mild and non irritating products, and pay attention to timely cleaning and makeup removal.
Operation effect and regular review
The postoperative effect is closely related to regular reexamination. After the operation, the patient needs to be reexamined according to the doctor's recommendations, so as to understand the surgical effect and recovery in a timely manner. After surgery, patients may have some normal discomfort, such as blurred vision, dry eyes, etc., but these symptoms usually disappear within a few weeks.
If there are abnormal symptoms such as vision loss, eye pain, and eye redness after surgery, you should return to the doctor in time to adjust the treatment plan in time. Regular reexamination will help to find and deal with possible complications in time, and ensure the best recovery of the surgical effect.
Summary
To sum up, rest and diet, eye care, avoiding eye infection and regular reexamination should be paid attention to after Xi'an ophthalmic surgery. Observing the postoperative precautions can fully protect the eye wounds, promote the healing and recovery, and ultimately achieve better results. Postoperative patients should pay close attention to their own experience and symptoms, and consult doctors in time to ensure eye health and psychological comfort.
