Can Xi'an Eye Department Huiyannian perform myopic surgery?

As a well-known ophthalmic hospital in Xi'an, Xi'an Eye Department Huiyannian has attracted much attention due to its professional equipment and senior doctors. Many patients want to know whether Hui Yannian provides myopia surgery. In this article, we will elaborate from four aspects: the type of surgery, surgical indications, surgical effects and risks.

Type of operation

Xi'an Eye Department Huiyannian provides a variety of myopia surgery methods, including laser myopia surgery (PRK LASIK）、 Lens implantation (ICL), etc. Each operation mode has its own characteristics and indications. According to the advice of the ophthalmologist and the needs of the patient, the most suitable surgical method can be selected.

Laser myopia surgery is to correct myopia by changing the corneal curvature through laser technology. PRK and LASIK are two common surgical methods. PRK is to cut off a layer of cornea on the corneal surface, and then reshape the cornea with laser. LASIK applies laser therapy to the inner layer of the cornea by making a corneal flap. These two surgical methods are both temporary, and there is a certain difference in the recovery time.

Intraocular lens implantation (ICL) is suitable for patients with high myopia or thin cornea. It corrects myopia by implanting a special intraocular lens into the eye. ICL surgery does not need to cut the cornea, so it has little impact on the cornea and recovers quickly.

Surgical indications

Not all myopia patients are suitable for surgical correction. Ophthalmologists will comprehensively evaluate whether it is suitable for surgery according to the patient's eye structure, myopia degree, corneal thickness and other factors. In general, patients with the following conditions may be suitable for myopia surgery:

1. The degree of myopia is stable, generally between - 1 and - 10 degrees.

2. Aged over 18 years, the eyeball development is basically stable.

3. No other eye diseases, such as keratitis, glaucoma, etc.

Operation effect and risk

The effect of myopia surgery is predictable. Most patients can significantly improve their vision after surgery, and no longer rely on glasses or contact lenses. However, the effect of surgery may vary from individual to individual. A small number of patients may need corrective surgery or auxiliary glasses.

The risk of surgery also exists, albeit very low. Possible risks include dry eyes after surgery, visual abnormalities, corneal scars, etc. The ophthalmologist will explain the operation risks in detail before the operation, and develop a personalized operation plan according to the specific situation of the patient.

To sum up, Xi'an Eye Department Huiyannian provides a variety of myopia surgery methods. According to the specific needs of patients and doctors' suggestions, you can choose the most suitable surgery method. The indication of surgery is closely related to the risk of surgical effect, so you must fully evaluate your own situation and consult with the ophthalmologist before deciding on surgery. The professional equipment and experienced doctor team of Xi'an Eye Department Huiyannian will ensure the safe and effective operation process.
