Effective treatment of myopia
In recent years, with the popularization of electronic products and the increase of close eye use time, the incidence of myopia has gradually increased. Many patients find ways to treat myopia through various ways, and the New Vision Wonder of Shanghai Eye Hospital will introduce effective methods to treat myopia for you in detail.
Keratoplasty
Corneal plastic lens therapy is a non operative, low-risk treatment for myopia. The use of corneal shaping lenses can correct myopia by changing the shape of the cornea during sleep, and no glasses or contact lenses are needed during the day.
Corneal shaping lens is suitable for patients with low myopia, which can significantly improve myopia and improve vision. This method can not only treat myopia, but also slow down the growth of myopia degree, with long-term effect.
However, keratoplasty lens therapy requires patients to have certain corneal curvature and corneal thickness, so it is not suitable for everyone. Before receiving this treatment, the patient needs to have a corneal test to determine whether it is suitable for this treatment.
Refractive surgery
Refractive surgery is a method of correcting myopia by laser or surgery to change the eye structure. This method is usually considered as a permanent treatment, which can significantly improve the degree of myopia and vision.
At present, the widely used refractive surgery includes LASIK (femtosecond laser keratomileusis) and PRK (femtosecond laser surface ablation). These operations are widely used in the new vision of Shanghai Eye Hospital.
Refractive surgery is a treatment that requires patients to consider carefully, and it needs to be decided whether to carry out after full examination and expert advice. After the operation, the patient needs to recover for a period of time. The patient needs to be nursed according to the doctor's instructions to ensure the effect of the operation.
Eye exercises and lifestyle adjustment
Eye exercises and lifestyle adjustment are one of the important means to prevent and treat myopia. Proper eye movement, correct eye posture and reasonable eye use time can effectively reduce eye fatigue and the development of myopia.
In addition, keeping good living habits is also the key to prevent myopia. Reasonable arrangement of work and rest time, proper outdoor activities, control of the use time of electronic products, and adequate sleep can reduce the occurrence of myopia.
Eye exercises and lifestyle adjustment are the basic methods to treat myopia. They have a certain effect on some patients with mild myopia, but for patients who have developed moderate or high myopia, these methods alone may have limited effect.
medication
Drug therapy is a feasible method to treat myopia. The application of drugs can slow down the growth of myopia degree. At present, the drugs that have been listed in China mainly include atropine eye drops and low concentration cyclosporine eye drops.
These drugs can slow down the development of myopia by enlarging the pupil and changing the eye morphology. However, drug treatment requires long-term adherence, and the efficacy of different patients may be different. Therefore, before using drug treatment, patients need to consult professional doctors and carry out effective treatment according to their suggestions.
To sum up, the new vision of Shanghai Eye Hospital has provided a variety of effective methods for the treatment of myopia, including corneal plastic lens therapy, refractive surgery correction, eye exercises and lifestyle adjustment, as well as drug treatment. Each method has its indications and limitations, and patients need to choose appropriate treatment methods under the guidance of professional doctors. Through the comprehensive application of these treatments, myopia can be effectively treated and the quality of life of patients can be improved.
