They actually regretted having the myopia surgery?

Regret why I didn't do it sooner!!

My nose hurts after wearing frame glasses for a long time

Eating hot pot in winter is foggy

It is inconvenient to exercise while wearing glasses

Wearing contact lenses makes my eyes dry and astringent, and they often get inflamed

If it falls, you will immediately become "blind"

You asked me when myopia makes people most vulnerable?

When I didn't wear glasses again

A Jio enters the men's restroom (I am a woman)

After being stopped by the handsome guy behind him

Lessons from the past

Go get myopia surgery immediately!

So, I did some homework:

What else do you need to prepare for myopia surgery besides money?

1. How to perform myopia surgery?

Currently, mainstream myopia surgeries are divided into two major categories: one is the "subtractive" laser surgery, and the other is the "additive" ICL lens implantation surgery.

Corneal refractive surgery includes semi-femtosecond, full-femtosecond, surface surgery, etc. Its surgical principle is to cut the cornea and change the corneal curvature to correct myopia.

ICL lens implantation surgery is to implant an artificial lens, which is equivalent to putting in a contact lens. This surgery is reversible to a certain extent, and the lens can be removed or replaced when necessary.

2. How to choose myopia surgery?

Myopia surgery is a very mature surgery in clinical practice. It causes little trauma and has a quick recovery. Overall, it is very safe.

However, different surgeries have different ranges of vision that can be corrected, the time required for recovery, and the advantages and disadvantages of the surgery.

How to choose?

There are many types of myopia surgery, but you can't just choose whichever one you want. There are different types of myopia surgery for different people. Myopia surgery is not the more expensive the better. The best one is the one that suits you.

3. Can I have myopia surgery?

01. Aged 18 to 50.

02. The refractive state is basically stable

The annual increase in myopia refractive power does not exceed 50 degrees for ≥ 2 years.

03. Diopter

Semi-femtosecond surgery: myopia less than 1200 degrees, astigmatism less than 600 degrees, hyperopia less than 600 degrees.

All-optical femtosecond laser surgery: It is recommended to correct the refractive power, myopia degree is between 100 and 1000 degrees; myopia plus astigmatism is less than 1000 degrees; astigmatism is less than 500 degrees.

ICL surgery: 50 degrees to 1800 degrees.

04. The cornea is relatively "healthy"

Corneal laser surgery: If you have corneal ectasia diseases, such as suspected keratoconus, confirmed keratoconus or other types of corneal ectasia, active eye inflammation, thin cornea, severe dry eyes, etc., you are not suitable for surgery.

Lens implantation surgery: has lower requirements for the cornea, but if there is suspected keratoconus or other types of corneal ectasia, the disease needs to be in a stable state after observation or treatment, and meet sufficient anterior chamber depth, sufficient corneal endothelial count, etc. before lens implantation surgery can be performed.

05. The patient wishes to remove his glasses and has reasonable expectations for the results of the surgery.

4. Preoperative Checklist

1. Basic examination: visual acuity, intraocular pressure, pupil diameter, computer optometry, subjective optometry, mydriasis optometry, etc.;

2. Corneal examination: detect corneal topography, measure corneal thickness and corneal curvature; lens implantation surgery also requires simultaneous assessment of anterior chamber depth, etc.;

3. Slit lamp examination: observe whether there are scars on the cornea and other eye diseases;

4. Fundus examination: Corneal refractive surgery requires fundus examination and fundus photography with a front lens to check the posterior pole and peripheral retina;

5. Lens implantation surgery also requires additional eye examinations, including UBM, OCT, corneal endothelial examination, eye B-ultrasound, tear duct flushing, etc.

6. Lens implantation surgery is an intraocular surgery and requires a full body examination, including blood and urine tests, electrocardiogram, etc.

5. Has myopia been cured after surgery?

Laser surgery for myopia only corrects myopia by changing the refractive power of the cornea, rather than treating it. The surgery cannot shorten the axial length that has already been caused by myopia.

After myopia surgery, you still need to maintain scientific and healthy eye habits. Bad eye habits such as facing the computer for a long time and often playing with mobile phones late at night may cause vision "regression" and myopia to occur again.

Friends who have the patience to read this,

You must have really considered whether to have myopia surgery...

Whether or not you choose to undergo myopia surgery, maintaining eye health is the key to truly benefiting your whole life.
