Expert of Chengdu Aier Eye Hospital - How to treat myopia?
Myopia, as a common ophthalmic disease, has caused troubles to many people's lives. As a well-known eye hospital in China, Chengdu Aier Eye Hospital has rich experience in myopia treatment. Next, we will elaborate on how experts from Chengdu Aier Eye Hospital treat myopia from many aspects.
1. Treatment with glasses
For patients with primary and moderate myopia, experts from Chengdu Aier Eye Hospital often recommend glasses for treatment. Lens matching treatment refers to the preparation of suitable myopia glasses or contact lenses for patients according to their myopia degree. By wearing appropriate lenses, the light can be accurately focused on the retina in front of the eye, thus effectively correcting vision problems.
In addition to conventional myopia glasses and contact lenses, Chengdu Aier Eye Hospital also provides some new methods of glasses matching. For example, in some myopic patients, corneal shaping glasses and night wearing contact lenses have been widely used. Corneal shaping lens is a specially designed contact lens, which can adjust the shape of the cornea when sleeping, without wearing glasses or contact lenses during the day. Wearing contact lenses at night is to use the special design of lenses to make the shape of the eyeball change slightly when sleeping, so that you do not need to wear lenses during the day.
2. Refractive surgery
For patients with high myopia, experts from Chengdu Aier Eye Hospital often recommend refractive surgery. Refractive surgery can change the focus of the eye on light by changing the curvature of the cornea to correct vision.
Common refractive surgery methods include femtosecond laser LASIK and corneal transplantation guided by surface optical coherence tomography (OCT). Femtosecond laser LASIK is one of the most common refractive surgery methods at present. A thin slice is cut on the cornea by laser, then the shape of the cut cornea is adjusted by laser, and finally the thin slice is covered on the cornea. OCT guided keratoplasty is to use OCT technology to measure the eyeball with high accuracy, and then select the appropriate cornea for transplantation according to the measurement results.
3. Special treatment
For some complicated cases of myopia, experts from Chengdu Aier Eye Hospital will also use special treatment. For example, children with myopia and amblyopia often receive visual training and amblyopia treatment. Visual training mainly stimulates children's visual development through a series of games and activities to improve their cognitive ability of angle, distance, depth, etc. Amblyopia treatment is to control the use of amblyopia eyes, stimulate the functional development of other strong eyes, and ultimately achieve the purpose of treating amblyopia and improving vision.
In addition, Chengdu Aier Eye Hospital also actively carries out myopia research and constantly explores new treatment methods. Through clinical trials and scientific research, it not only improves the efficacy and safety of the existing treatment scheme, but also opens up a new way for the treatment of myopia.
4. Adjustment of living habits
In addition to medical treatment, experts from Chengdu Aier Eye Hospital will also guide and adjust the living habits of patients. The occurrence and development of myopia is related to long-term close eye use, so adjusting eye use habits is the key to improve myopia. Experts will advise patients to take appropriate eye rest and stay away from the electronic screen, reasonably arrange eye use time, increase outdoor activities, etc.
Summary
Experts from Chengdu Aier Eye Hospital have provided a variety of treatment schemes for myopia patients through lens matching treatment, refractive surgery, special treatment and lifestyle adjustment. Both primary and moderate myopia and high myopia can be treated professionally and effectively. It is hoped that these treatments can help more patients get rid of myopia and regain good vision and quality of life.
