Does Xi'an Xijing ophthalmology ptosis need surgery?
Blepharoptosis is a common ophthalmic problem, which usually leads to ptosis, bringing inconvenience and trouble to patients. Xi'an Xijing Ophthalmology Department, as a professional ophthalmic hospital, provides professional blepharoptosis treatment services for patients. So, Xi'an Xijing ophthalmology ptosis needs surgery? The following is a detailed description of anatomy, symptoms, surgical treatment and postoperative effects.
anatomy
The upper eyelid is composed of multiple muscles. When these muscles are damaged or degenerated, it will lead to ptosis. The function of eyelid muscle is to lift the eyelid and open the eyes. If these muscles cannot work properly, the eyelids will droop, affecting vision and appearance.
Therefore, patients with blepharoptosis usually need surgery to repair or reconstruct the damaged eyelid muscles to achieve normal eyelid opening and closing functions.
symptom
Eyelid ptosis can cause a variety of symptoms, including:
1. Blurred vision: because the upper eyelid blocks the line of sight, the patient may be difficult to see objects clearly.
2. Eye fatigue and dryness: ptosis increases the efforts of the eyes, leading to eye fatigue and dryness.
3. Headache and periocular pain: When the upper eyelid droops, the frontal muscles will be excessively tense, leading to headache and periocular pain.
4. Damaged appearance: ptosis can make people look tired and senile.
surgical treatment
Xi'an Xijing Ophthalmology Department adopts advanced blepharoptosis surgery methods, including:
1. Eye muscle reconstruction surgery: restore the function of upper eyelid muscle by removing excessive upper eyelid skin tissue or repairing loose muscles.
2. Elastic line surgery: The upper eyelid is lifted to the normal position by inserting elastic lines to improve ptosis.
3. Foreign body implantation surgery: implant foreign bodies into the upper eyelid to make the eyelid obtain sufficient tension and raise the position of the upper eyelid.
Postoperative effect
Patients usually see significant improvement after surgery. Repairing damaged eyelid muscles or lifting the upper eyelid can restore the normal function and appearance of the upper eyelid. Symptoms such as blurred vision and eye fatigue will also be significantly reduced. The patient's appearance will be rejuvenated, looking younger and more energetic.
To sum up, Xi'an Xijing Ophthalmology Department is a professional hospital providing surgical treatment services for ptosis. The decision that blepharoptosis requires surgery is based on the individual condition and symptoms of the patient. If blepharoptosis seriously affects the daily life and vision of patients, surgical treatment is an effective and feasible solution.
