Treatment of ophthalmic keratitis in Xi'an
Ophthalmic keratitis is a common eye disease, which will affect the vision and quality of life of patients when the condition is serious. As an important city in northwest China, Xi'an has high-quality medical resources and professional doctors in ophthalmic medicine. Next, we will introduce the treatment of Xi'an ophthalmic keratitis from four aspects: drug treatment, surgical treatment, auxiliary treatment and preventive measures.
medication
Drug treatment is one of the routine treatments for ophthalmic keratitis in Xi'an. According to the type and severity of keratitis, doctors usually use antibiotic eye drops, antiviral drugs or antifungal drugs to treat it. Antibiotic eyedrops are mainly used for bacterial keratitis, which can control infection by inhibiting the growth of bacteria. Antiviral drugs are mainly used for viral keratitis, which can inhibit the replication and spread of the virus. Antifungal drugs are suitable for keratitis caused by fungal infection.
In addition to using drugs, ophthalmologists may also advise patients to use artificial tears to alleviate symptoms and keep the eyes moist. This has a positive effect on reducing inflammation and promoting corneal healing.
In general, drug therapy is the first choice for the treatment of Xi'an ophthalmic keratitis, which can effectively control the condition and improve the quality of life of patients.
surgical treatment
For patients with keratitis who are seriously ill or cannot be controlled through drug treatment, Xi'an Eye Hospital also provides surgical treatment options. Among them, corneal transplantation is a common operation.
Corneal transplantation is to transplant healthy donor corneas to the damaged corneas of patients to restore vision and improve symptoms. The operation has been widely used in Xi'an Eye Hospital, with a high success rate and quick postoperative recovery.
Of course, surgical treatment also requires reasonable cooperation of patients, such as the adjustment of diet and living habits before and after the operation, as well as the regular review after the operation and the use of drugs according to the doctor's advice.
Adjuvant therapy
Adjuvant treatment refers to some auxiliary measures taken in addition to drug treatment or surgical treatment to accelerate corneal repair and recovery. Common auxiliary treatment methods include phototherapy, warm and hot compress, protection and correction of vision, eye massage, etc.
Phototherapy is to irradiate the eyes through the use of specific light treatment equipment to promote the healing of cornea and the regression of inflammation. Warm compress can give warm stimulation to the eyes through hot eye mask and hot towel, so as to improve blood circulation and relieve symptoms.
Protection of corrected vision mainly refers to the use of appropriate glasses or contact lenses to help patients reduce the irritation and pressure on the eyes, while improving vision. Eye massage can stimulate the acupoints around the eyes, promote the blood circulation and metabolism of the eyes, and help improve symptoms and speed up healing through appropriate massage techniques.
preventive measure
The occurrence of ophthalmic keratitis is closely related to people's living habits and health habits. In daily life, keeping eye hygiene is the key to prevent keratitis. Here are some precautions:
1. Pay attention to personal hygiene and avoid the use of contaminated eye appliances, such as glasses, eye masks, etc.
2. Avoid using eyes for a long time or excessively, and pay attention to taking a rest in time.
3. When using glasses or contact lenses, clean and maintain them correctly.
4. Myopic patients should correct their vision in time to avoid excessive intraocular pressure and eye fatigue.
The prevention measures can effectively reduce the incidence and severity of keratitis.
Summary:
Xi'an Eye Hospital provides a series of treatment methods, including drug treatment, surgical treatment, auxiliary treatment and preventive measures. Drug treatment is a routine method for keratitis, and infection is controlled by the use of antibiotic eye drops, antiviral drugs and antifungal drugs. The surgical treatment is mainly corneal transplantation, which is used when the condition is serious.
