What vision correction operations can Shanghai Eye Hospital provide?
As a professional ophthalmic hospital, Shanghai Eye Hospital provides patients with a variety of vision correction operations, including laser myopia surgery, femtosecond laser surgery, lens implantation surgery and ultrasonic emulsification. These operations are to use modern medical technology to improve different types of vision problems, so that patients can restore clear vision. I will elaborate on these operations from four aspects.
Laser myopia surgery
Laser myopia surgery is a common vision correction surgery, which is suitable for myopia patients. The laser technology is used to change the curvature of the cornea so that it can focus the light correctly, thus improving the vision of myopic patients. There are many methods for laser myopia surgery, including LASIK, PRK and LASEK. Doctors will choose the appropriate method according to the specific situation of patients.
Laser myopic surgery has the advantages of fast recovery and stable effect after surgery, but it requires detailed ophthalmic examination and evaluation before surgery to ensure that patients are suitable for surgery. After surgery, patients need to follow the doctor's recommendations for eye care and reexamination to ensure the stability of the surgical effect.
Femtosecond laser surgery
Femtosecond laser surgery is a more advanced laser vision correction surgery, suitable for myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism patients. Compared with traditional laser surgery, femtosecond laser surgery is more accurate and safe, can more accurately change the shape of the cornea, and improve the surgical effect.
Femtosecond laser surgery is usually divided into two methods: femtosecond LASIK and femtosecond PRK. Femtosecond LASIK is applicable to myopia and astigmatism patients. During surgery, a corneal flap needs to be made first, and then laser is used to change the shape of the cornea. Femtosecond PRK is suitable for patients with hyperopia. During the operation, it is not necessary to make corneal flap, but directly use laser to change the shape of the cornea.
Lens implantation
The lens implantation surgery is suitable for older patients with myopia and hyperopia, as well as those with presbyopia. The operation improves vision problems by replacing the lens of the eye. Lens implantation surgery is divided into two methods: intraocular lens implantation and adjustable lens implantation. Doctors will choose the appropriate method according to the patient's situation.
Lens implantation surgery has the advantages of rapid recovery, stable effect and no age limitation, which is suitable for patients who cannot improve their vision through laser surgery. After surgery, patients need to be reviewed regularly to ensure the stability of the surgical effect.
Ultrasonic emulsification
Ultrasonic emulsification is suitable for patients with cataract. Cataract is the problem of vision loss caused by lens opacity. Through ultrasonic emulsification, the turbid lens can be broken and replaced with intraocular lens to restore vision.
Ultrasonic emulsification is a minimally invasive surgical method with the advantages of fast recovery and less pain. After surgery, patients need to pay attention to eye hygiene and medication, and avoid strenuous exercise and eye collision, so as to avoid affecting the surgical effect.
Summary
Shanghai Eye Hospital is a professional hospital that provides a variety of vision correction operations. Laser myopia surgery, femtosecond laser surgery, lens implantation surgery and ultrasonic emulsification surgery are common vision correction surgery. These operations use modern medical technology to improve different types of vision problems, so that patients can restore clear vision. Whether it is myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism or cataract, Shanghai Eye Hospital can provide suitable surgical methods to help patients get rid of vision problems.
