Preparation before operation
Before performing ophthalmic femtosecond surgery, patients need to make some preparations in advance. First, we need to evaluate the patient's eye condition through professional ophthalmic examination to ensure the feasibility of surgery. The doctor will check the thickness, curvature and other indicators of the cornea to determine whether it is suitable for femtosecond surgery. Secondly, patients need to stop using contact lenses before surgery. This is because contact lenses will change the shape of the cornea and affect the effect of surgery. A few days before surgery, patients need to avoid using certain eye drops and eye care fluids to avoid affecting the operation. In addition, preoperative guidance is very important. The doctor will inform the patient of the operation process, precautions and postoperative recovery in detail, and make psychological preparations in advance.
The preparation of operation is an important link to ensure the smooth operation. Only by doing these preparations, can patients better prepare for surgery and postoperative recovery.
Operation process and precautions
Ophthalmic femtosecond surgery is a very delicate ophthalmic surgery, and the operation time is usually within a few minutes. During the operation, the patient needs quiet cooperation to keep the eyeball stable. During the operation, the doctor will give the patient eyedrops for anesthesia and pupil dilation. Then, the doctor will use a laser to correct the cornea. After surgery, the doctor will wear protective glasses for patients to avoid irritation and infection.
On the first day after the operation, the patient needs to return to the hospital for reexamination. The doctor will check the condition of the cornea and evaluate the effect of the operation. Patients need to follow the doctor's advice, pay attention to sunscreen and keep warm, and avoid strenuous exercise and wiping eyes. At the same time, patients need to drop eyedrops regularly to keep their eyes clean and avoid infection. In addition, patients need to return on time, and doctors will adjust the follow-up medication and nursing plan according to individual conditions.
Recovery time and precautions
The recovery time after ophthalmic femtosecond surgery will vary according to individual differences and surgical effects. Generally speaking, patients can feel a significant improvement in vision within a few days after surgery. Within one month after the operation, the vision will gradually return to the best state. However, complete recovery takes some time, usually three months to half a year after the operation.
What patients should pay attention to after surgery is to prevent the eyes from being squeezed and collided by external forces, so as not to affect the surgical effect. In addition, patients need to return on time, and doctors will conduct regular inspection and evaluation. In case of dry eyes, pain, vision loss and other abnormalities, the patient needs to seek medical advice in time and receive further treatment from the doctor.
Summary
Ophthalmic femtosecond surgery is a high-precision, safe and reliable corneal correction surgery, and the recovery time will vary depending on individual differences. However, through accurate preoperative evaluation and postoperative care, patients can successfully get through the postoperative recovery period and recover to the ideal vision. After surgery, patients need to pay attention to the doctor's guidance, follow the postoperative nursing measures, avoid rubbing eyes and sudden strenuous exercise, keep eyes clean, wear protective glasses, and reduce the risk of infection. Through correct nursing and regular follow-up, patients can safely pass the recovery period after the femtosecond ophthalmic surgery and recover to the ideal vision level.
