The college entrance examination has entered the countdown phase Many students are ready to enjoy the world after the exam How many friends have secretly included “removing glasses” in their wish list? “In order to apply for the major of your choice” “I want to welcome university with a new image” “To get rid of the embarrassment of fogging glasses” … but! Myopia surgery is not a blind box that can be shipped as soon as the order is placed. Instead, it is a "visual clearance battle" that requires careful planning! First level: surgical requirements - are there "level restrictions" for removing glasses? Generally speaking, patients who need myopia surgery must be 18 years old or older and their myopia must have been stable for the past two years. However, there are some contraindications to myopia surgery: 1. Suspected keratoconus 2. Active inflammation of the eyes 3. Severe dry eyes 4. Cataracts 5. Glaucoma 6. Uncontrolled immune diseases (systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.) After some of the above contraindications are improved through treatment or control, myopia surgery can be performed again, but if you want to take off your glasses after the exam, you need to prepare in advance. To sum it up in six words: early check-up and smart arrangement! Second stage: Preoperative examination - Are contact lenses still in the "cooling-off period"? Remember to stop wearing contact lenses before the examination! Stop wearing soft contact lenses for 1 week Stop wearing hard contact lenses (RGP) for 3 weeks Stop wearing orthokeratology lenses (OK lenses) for 3 months Preoperative examination [the day before] Eat normally, don’t drink alcohol, don’t stay up late On the day of the preoperative examination Register and conduct basic examinations such as vision and intraocular pressure Face-to-face consultation, get a preliminary surgical plan based on eye condition and eye needs Comprehensive examination, laser myopia surgery takes about 2-4 hours, ICL lens implantation preoperative examination takes about 4-6 hours Face-to-face consultation, final surgery plan based on examination results, and determine surgery date Tips for the inspection day: ✅ Don’t wear makeup (eye makeup may affect the examination) ✅ Don’t drive yourself (dilated pupils will cause photophobia and blurred vision) ✅ Wear sunglasses (check sunscreen and eye protection) Level 3: Surgical method - which one is your "exclusive weapon"? Myopia surgery is not a “single-choice question”, the key lies in the condition of your eyes! Among them, personalized semi-femtosecond has entered the "whole-eye customization 4.0 era", and full-optical shaping is the benchmark technology of this stage. All-optical reshaping (3D precision carving) can correct myopia below 700 degrees and astigmatism below 450 degrees . It combines wavefront aberration, corneal topography, axial length and other data for refractive correction. Before the operation, the optical data of the whole eye is collected through an ophthalmic comprehensive measuring instrument, and 2000 virtual light rays are injected using light tracking technology. Then, the real eye 3D data model of the patient's eye is created through the AI algorithm, and finally a more realistic and more suitable corneal cutting plan for the eye is obtained. Therefore, the operation is more accurate and the night vision is excellent. It is suitable for people who have high requirements for night vision or have fine work needs. For example, students who want to work as teachers, doctors, sculptors, painters and other professions in the future can consider removing all-optical reshaping glasses. If you like sports or want to work in the sports industry, you can consider the All-Femtosecond Precision 4.0. Compared with SMILE 3.0, the minimally invasive all-femtosecond precision 4.0-VISULYZE introduces personalized Nomogram scientific analysis software on the basis of SMILE 3.0 to create a more ideal myopia correction plan for patients. By collecting all aspects of patient data, screening and reviewing, and quantitatively analyzing, and adjusting all aspects of errors that may affect the accuracy of correction, a set of personalized user-specific Nomograms (prediction models) are established for different doctors, and the clinical effects are visualized in front of doctors with standard charts, helping clinicians to make more detailed preoperative designs, obtain correction target values that are closer to each patient, and help patients get a more accurate visual experience! However, the specific method of lens removal should be determined based on your eye needs and the actual condition of your eyes. After a detailed preoperative examination, you should choose the most suitable option under the doctor's advice. Level 4: Postoperative recovery - how to "recover from fatigue" correctly? Daily life: You can use your eyes normally and use electronic products on the second day after surgery, but you should reduce the time you use your eyes and take a rest in time if you feel dry and tired eyes. Wear an eye mask when sleeping one week after semi-femtosecond surgery Do not let water come into contact with eyes for two weeks No makeup for one month, no eye makeup for three months Do not rub your eyes, whether you are recovering or not. Pay attention to your eye habits, avoid long-term close-up eye fatigue, and ensure that there is sufficient light around you when using your eyes Sports travel: You can do some moderate exercise two days after the operation, and gradually increase the intensity of exercise according to the recovery situation. Do not try extreme sports (bungee jumping, skydiving, etc.) for those with severe myopia. Do not swim within six months and do not dive within one year. After conventional laser surgery, it is recommended to wear sunglasses when going out during the day within one month Medication review: Follow the doctor's instructions and do not increase or decrease the dosage or stop taking the medicine on your own Store the medicine in a suitable environment according to the instructions, avoiding high temperatures or direct sunlight When applying eye drops, gently pull down the eyelid, look up, and keep the eye drops two centimeters away from the eyes. Follow-up examinations are scheduled after surgery, with follow-up points being 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year after surgery. The refractive department of Wuhan University Aier Eye Hospital reminds you: Myopia surgery is not a "master key". It cannot cure fundus lesions, nor can it prevent new myopia. Scientific eye habits and regular eye examinations are the best strategies for vision! At the same time, we also hope that all candidates can see the stars and the sea clearly this summer and rush to a broader future. |
