Chengdu East Railway Station Purui Eye Hospital - What are the effective astigmatism treatment methods
Astigmatism is a common eye problem, which affects many people's daily life. If not treated in time, astigmatism may lead to decreased vision and eye discomfort. In Chengdu, the East Railway Station Preh Eye Hospital provides a variety of effective astigmatism treatment methods to help patients recover vision and alleviate symptoms.
Corneal plastic lens treatment
Orthokeratology is a non operative method for astigmatism correction. It corrects the visual problem of astigmatism by placing a specially designed corneal shaping lens on the cornea to change the curvature of the cornea. This treatment is suitable for patients with mild to moderate astigmatism.
The advantage of keratoplasty lens treatment is that it is reversible, does not require surgery, and can see significant visual improvement in a short time. It is also suitable for patients who are not suitable for laser surgery, such as patients with thin corneas, dry eyes or other eye diseases.
However, the treatment of keratoplasty lens requires regular lens replacement and eye examination to ensure stable vision and corneal health.
Laser surgery
Laser surgery is one of the common treatment methods for astigmatism. Among them, LASIK surgery and PRK surgery are the two most commonly used types.
LASIK surgery uses lasers to change the shape of the cornea to correct astigmatism. It is a very fast and effective treatment method, and the postoperative recovery is fast. PRK surgery is similar to LASIK surgery, but it is more suitable for patients with higher astigmatism.
The advantage of laser surgery for astigmatism is that it can correct astigmatism in one operation, and the effect is lasting. However, this treatment requires patients to have sufficient corneal thickness and eye stability.
Glasses and contact lenses
Glasses and contact lenses are the most common methods of astigmatism correction. Glasses change the refraction of light through lens design to correct the vision problems of astigmatism patients. Contact lenses can change the refraction of light by contacting the eyeball to achieve the same effect.
Glasses and contact lenses are non-invasive and safe astigmatism correction methods, which are suitable for patients with astigmatism at all levels. They can provide immediate vision correction, and are relatively inexpensive and easy to access. However, the use of glasses and contact lenses requires regular inspection and replacement to maintain stable vision and eye health.
Summary
Purui Eye Hospital of Chengdu East Railway Station provides a variety of effective astigmatism treatment methods, including corneal plastic lens treatment, laser surgery, glasses and contact lenses. According to the specific situation and needs of patients, doctors will provide appropriate treatment plans.
