There is a way to prevent glasses from fogging up when wearing a mask

If you don't want to be bothered by the fog on your glasses when wearing a mask, you might as well take off your glasses directly through myopia surgery . You Changtao, deputy director of the Aier Eye Hospital affiliated to Henan University and director of the refractive department, introduced that myopia surgery refers to the purpose of correcting myopia through surgery, which is mainly divided into two types: corneal laser surgery and lens implantation surgery. As the name suggests, corneal laser surgery is a laser surgery performed on the cornea, while lens implantation surgery is to implant a permanent "contact lens" in the eye. Relatively speaking, it has a wider range of correctable degrees and is more suitable for patients with high myopia.

Myopia surgery is not for everyone

Although myopia surgery is good, not everyone can have it. Some people who rashly undergo myopia surgery may even bring higher eye health risks. The following basic conditions must be met for myopia surgery:

1. The patient must have the desire to remove the spectacles and understand the limitations of the surgery;
2. Aged ≥ 18 years old;

3. The refractive status is relatively stable within two years (the annual refractive change is ≤0.5D);

4. There are no functional or organic eye diseases.

In addition, myopia surgery has certain contraindications. As for whether you can have myopia surgery, and what type of surgery is more suitable for you? It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for preoperative examination and evaluation. The doctor will give a suitable myopia correction plan based on the detailed examination results.
