Who is suitable for femtosecond surgery?

Femtosecond surgery is an advanced laser ophthalmic surgery technology, which can correct myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and other eye vision problems through laser. As one of the innovations of modern medical technology, femtosecond surgery is widely applicable to all groups of people. The following will elaborate on the population suitable for femtosecond surgery in terms of vision problems, age factors, physical health and surgical needs.

1. Vision problems

Femtosecond surgery is suitable for patients with vision problems such as myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. For myopic patients, femtosecond surgery can improve myopia by changing the corneal curvature to make it more flat. For hyperopia patients, femtosecond surgery can improve hyperopia by changing the corneal curvature to make it more steep. In addition, femtosecond surgery can also correct astigmatism, making the patient's vision clearer.

However, femtosecond surgery is not applicable to all vision problems. For patients with high or low diopter, femtosecond surgery may not be effective. In addition, if the patient has other eye diseases, such as abnormal intraocular pressure, corneal diseases, etc., it may not be suitable for femtosecond surgery.

2. Age factor

Femtosecond surgery is applicable to adults, middle-aged and elderly people. The eyeballs of adults have basically developed completely, and the corneal morphology is relatively stable, so it is very suitable for femtosecond surgery. For middle-aged and elderly people, they may have suffered from presbyopia and other vision problems. Femtosecond surgery can effectively improve these problems and improve their vision. For minors, because the eyeball is not fully developed and the corneal morphology is unstable, femtosecond surgery is generally not recommended.

In addition, for pregnant women, because of the fluctuation of hormone levels during pregnancy, corneal morphology will also change, so it is generally not recommended that pregnant women undergo femtosecond surgery clinically.

3. Good health

Femtosecond surgery is suitable for healthy patients. Patients need to have no serious systemic diseases, such as diabetes, immune system diseases, etc. In addition, patients also need to be free from eye diseases such as corneal infection, keratitis or other eye infections. In addition, patients also need to meet the requirements of certain corneal thickness and diopter range to ensure the safety and effectiveness of surgery.

Before femtosecond surgery, patients need to undergo a comprehensive ophthalmic examination to assess whether their physical health is suitable for surgery.

4. Operation demand

Femtosecond surgery is suitable for people who want to get rid of relying on glasses or contact lenses. For those who want to get rid of glasses, femtosecond surgery is an ideal choice. It can reduce or eliminate dependence on glasses or contact lenses and improve the quality of life of patients.

In addition, femtosecond surgery is also applicable to the treatment of some eye diseases, such as corneal diseases. Femtosecond surgery can treat corresponding diseases by cutting and changing the corneal morphology.

Summary

Femtosecond surgery is applicable to people with vision problems and in the adult, middle and old age range. Affected by health status, patients with good health and no serious eye disease are more suitable. In addition, femtosecond surgery is also suitable for people who want to get rid of glasses or contact lenses. However, everyone's situation is unique. In order to ensure the safety and effectiveness of surgery, patients should consult doctors before deciding to perform femtosecond surgery, and receive comprehensive ophthalmic examination and evaluation.
