Which surgical method is better for myopia?

Myopia eye surgery has been performed radially since the beginning of the history, and a considerable number of people in China have also done it. Because the incision of a radiation device was made on the cornea, the damage to the cornea was great, and eventually the surgery was abandoned due to more postoperative complications. Then comes laser surgery.

Start making the corneal epithelial flap in the center of the cornea, and then use a laser to cut the corneal stromal layer to achieve the goal of improving myopia. Now the most recommended full femtosecond or half femtosecond surgery, femtosecond surgery recovery is faster than the previous surgery, less pain, and higher safety, is currently the most recommended femtosecond surgery.

Generally speaking, patients should first go to the hospital for a check-up before undergoing myopia surgery to see what type of surgery is suitable. Some patients are not able to undergo excimer laser surgery and can only undergo intraocular lens implantation surgery. Excimer laser procedures include surface cutting, in-situ grinding, femtosecond and femtosecond lasers, among others.

However, some patients with high myopia and ultra-high myopia are unable to undergo corneal laser surgery.

Hello, myopia correction can be broadly divided into two main types:

Laser correction. ICL crystal correction.

Before wanting to do myopia correction, a series of examinations will be done first, and the type of correction will be selected according to the results of the examination, some people are suitable for laser correction, and some people are more suitable for ICL lenses, for example, people with high myopia may be more suitable for ICL lens correction to improve vision.

Hello, myopia surgery is roughly divided into three categories: quasimolecular laser, femtosecond laser, and lens implantation, and you need to choose the most suitable surgical method according to your eye condition and preoperative examination.

Conventional LASIK: It is mainly for patients with moderate corneal thickness and refractive power, and good conditions for various parameters. This myopia eye surgery has a high degree of stability, feasibility and safety, short operation time, fast recovery, and economic cost.

Ultra-thin LASIK: The corneal flap is made with the newly introduced French MORIA-90 micron disposable cutter head and blade. The biggest advantage of this myopia eye surgery method is that the cut corneal flap is very uniform, and the effect is more comfortable and stable.

It is suitable for myopia patients with thin corneas or high myopia. Patients with normal corneal thickness or moderate refractive power and good parameters will have better results if this procedure is performed.

Epi-Lasik: Epi-Lasik surgery is a modified corneal resurfacing surgery method, which uses special instruments to make a pedicled corneal epithelial flap, so that the corneal epithelium is completely separated from the corneal Descemet's layer, and after the epithelial flap is removed, the excimer laser cutting is performed on the corneal Descemet's layer, and finally the epithelial flap is reduced. It is suitable for corneas with thin corneas or low corneal curvature and flat arcs, which are often not suitable for traditional IK surgery.

Femtosecond laser surgery: Femtosecond laser is used to make a precise corneal flap, and then the excimer laser can be used to cut the depth of the required power, which is currently more advanced, with good postoperative effect and more options. Femtosecond laser surgery is an option for all patients who are candidates for LASIK.

ICL lens implantation: ICL is an emerging myopic eye surgery specifically for high myopia, mainly for myopia from 1200 degrees to 2200 degrees, hyperopia, and astigmatism from 100 degrees to 400 degrees. Patients with myopia in this range are not able to undergo traditional excimer laser surgery.

Patients with high myopia undergoing ICL can achieve or exceed the expected corrected visual acuity after surgery.

For example, if you choose a myopia surgery team that is suitable for you, then you must first go to the hospital to find them in the hospital to see how many prescriptions you have, and then how to perform the surgery.

It is better to do a detailed myopia eye examination and choose an effective surgery according to the results of the examination. After the surgery, you will need to be hospitalized for a period of time to better help** and recover.

Everyone's eye condition is different, and you should go to the hospital to listen to the doctor's advice.

Myopia laser is not the more expensive the better, it is good to choose the right one for you! It is recommended to choose according to the examination and your own needs.

Many people know that Kunming Ivey Ophthalmology is a leader in this area, and has successfully performed many such surgeries.

There are three main types of myopia eye surgery:

1. Corneal laser surgery, including LASIK, femtosecond LASIK, EK, femtosecond, etc., is suitable for most patients, and patients with myopia over 1200 degrees or below 1200 but with thin cornea are not suitable;

2. Lens implantation surgery, ICL posterior chamber implantation, suitable for patients with myopia greater than 600 degrees or more and thin cornea that is not suitable for laser surgery;

3. Posterior scleral reinforcement is suitable for high-degree myopia with an eye axis greater than 26 and myopia that is difficult to control in recent years.

In short, myopia surgery cannot be said which one is the best, each one has a corresponding suitable myopia population, and each person also has the most suitable surgical method.

None of them are good!

Don't do it.

**There are only two types of myopia: wearing glasses or laser surgery, and under the age of 18, the growth of myopia can only be delayed by wearing glasses.

After the age of 18, the degree of myopia is stable, and laser myopia surgery can be used**.

There are many surgical methods for myopia, which are generally divided into two categories according to different surgical methods; The first type is laser surgery**, also known as corneal refractive surgery, including excimer laser surgery and femtosecond laser surgery; The second type is intraocular refractive surgery, including phakic intraocular lens implantation and lens exchange, and different surgical methods are suitable for different people and different degrees of myopia. Therefore, if there is myopia in the eye, you first need to go to the hospital to improve the relevant examinations and clarify your condition before you can choose the most suitable method.

The most popular surgical methods for myopia eye surgery are corneal refractive surgery and lens refractive surgery. Corneal refractive surgery, also known as excimer laser or femtosecond laser, is based on the principle of correcting myopia by thinning the cornea. Corneal surgery is not recommended for patients with high myopia or those with too high myopia because it will cut the cornea too much, and intraocular lens implantation of ICL lens can be considered.

At present, the most advanced surgical method is femtosecond surgery, but although femtosecond surgery is good, it is not suitable for all myopic people. Before the surgery, you will need to come to the hospital for a rigorous examination.

There are three types of femtosecond laser myopia surgery:

Femtosecond flap LASIK: Half femtosecond laser, femtosecond laser to make corneal flap, excimer laser to eliminate corneal stroma.

Flap full femtosecond laser: get rid of the excimer laser and corneal lamellar knife, femtosecond laser makes corneal flap, femtosecond laser eliminates corneal stroma, and the surgical process is all done by femtosecond laser.

Flapless ReLEx Laser: The highest level of laser myopia surgery, the corneal incision is less than 4 mm, the best degree of corneal saving, the postoperative visual quality is perfect, and various symptoms are avoided after surgery, and the surgical process is also completed by femtosecond laser.

Flapped and flapless full femtosecond laser myopia surgery can only be completed by the German Zeiss femtosecond laser, and other brands of femtosecond lasers can only do femtosecond flap LASIK, pay attention to identification.

What are the types of myopia eye surgery? How do I choose the right surgery for me?

To do myopia correction surgery, you need to choose a regular hospital with complete surgical equipment, so that the surgical method will be more selective, and the doctor's surgical experience also needs to pay attention to this aspect, the more experienced the doctor, the more suitable the customized plan for the patient, and the higher the quality of vision after surgery. You can consider Aier Eye Hospital, a listed medical institution, and a national chain.

Myopia surgery is not something that everyone can do, and it is not up to you to decide which surgical method is suitable for you, but also to go to the hospital for a specific preoperative examination, follow the doctor's advice, and the surgical method that suits you is the best. Of course, ReLEx is a new generation of myopia surgery, and it is also the mainstream surgical method for myopia correction.

At present, there are three types of myopia eye surgery: corneal refraction, lens refraction, and scleral refraction, and corneal refractive surgery is the mainstream on the market, because corneal surgery does not have any disturbance to the inside of the eyeball, and the recovery after surgery is relatively fast and will not cause other complications. Corneal refractive surgery is divided into quasimolecular laser surgery, as well as half-femtosecond and full-femtosecond surgery, which should be selected according to the specific conditions of the eye.

The typical sequelae of surgery also include glare, astigmatism, vision regression, corneal flap displacement, etc., and 99% of people who have undergone surgery will have greatly reduced their night vision, resulting in only a bright light at night and unable to see objects clearly. Therefore, if you want to drive at night, you must not do it.

The chance of dry eyes syndrome is roughly 60% to 70%, or even more than 90%, and the symptoms will stay with you for a lifetime, requiring long-term use of artificial tears.

After surgery, there is a large gap in vision between the two eyes, and the visual double vision is severe.

If you use "computers, mobile phones" for a long time, it is not recommended to do it, because the sensitivity of the eyes to light increases, the resistance decreases, and it is more likely to fatigue and even infection, which causes rapid acceleration and deterioration of vision, and the loss of the autoregulatory function of the eyes, which is not easy to recover naturally.
