Precautions for myopia correction in ophthalmology
With the development of modern science and technology, ophthalmic correction of myopia has become a common and effective treatment. However, when carrying out lens correction, we need to pay attention to the following aspects to ensure the correction effect and eye health.
Lens selection
First of all, it is very important to choose the right lens for correcting myopia. Generally speaking, there are two types of lenses to choose from: hard lenses and soft lenses. Hard lenses are suitable for younger patients with higher myopia, while soft lenses are suitable for older patients with lower myopia. When selecting lenses, decisions should be made according to the doctor's suggestions and the actual situation of the patient.
In addition, attention should also be paid to the quality and materials of lenses. High quality lenses can provide a clear visual effect while reducing glare and eye fatigue. Common high-quality lens materials include resin, high refractive index materials, etc. When selecting lenses, you can consult professionals to understand the characteristics and application range of different lens materials.
Wearing time
In addition to selecting appropriate lenses, controlling the wearing time is also an important note in correcting myopia. Wearing lenses for too long may have negative effects on the eyes, such as dryness, fatigue and eye discomfort. Therefore, when wearing lenses, it is necessary to control the wearing time according to the doctor's advice and personal comfort.
Generally speaking, for novices, the time to wear lenses should be gradually increased in the first few days to let the eyes gradually adapt. Then, when your eyes feel tired or unwell, you should immediately remove the lens and have a rest. In addition, eye care and activities should also be carried out every 2 hours every day. Eye fatigue can be alleviated by taking a rest with eyes closed and staying away from electronic products.
Eye care
While carrying out ophthalmic lens correction, eye care is also required to maintain eye health. First, keep a good eye position. The bad habits of using eyes such as lowering head and staring at the electronic screen for a long time will aggravate eye fatigue and myopia. Therefore, we should always remind ourselves to maintain the correct posture of eye use and reasonably arrange the time of eye use.
Secondly, pay attention to eye hygiene. Frequent hand washing, frequent changing of glasses cloth, and avoiding the use of expired or dirty eye care products are all basic operations for eye protection. It can also relieve eye fatigue and promote blood circulation by soaking feet in hot water and applying hot compress to eyes.
Regular review
Finally, regular reexamination is the key to ensure the effect of myopia correction and eye health. Every once in a while, we should regularly go to the eye hospital for visual inspection and eye assessment to ensure that the degree of myopia is effectively controlled and other potential eye problems are found and handled in a timely manner.
During reexamination, the doctor will adjust the lens degree and correction plan according to the change of myopia degree. At the same time, the doctor will also check the health of the eyes to ensure that wearing glasses does not cause other eye diseases or complications.
summary
In the process of correcting myopia in ophthalmology, we need to pay attention to selecting appropriate lenses, controlling the wearing time, paying attention to eye care and regular reexamination. Following these precautions will help improve the effect of myopia correction in ophthalmology and protect eye health. Therefore, we should fully understand these precautions when correcting myopia, and carry out correct operations under the guidance of doctors.
