    Adult students have the option of laser surgery or MCT (orthokeratology). The difference between these two is that one is surgical and the other is non-surgical. Laser surgery can correct the corneal curvature to correct refractive error and restore unaided vision, but it does not control the progression of myopia.

    Pathological myopia (progressive high myopia) surgery may still occur after the degree continues to deepen, the visual acuity appears, and the probability of uncontrolled myopia fundus complications (including glaucoma, macular degeneration, atrophy, retinal detachment, etc.) increases with the increasing degree, increasing the risk of blindness! Laser surgery also needs to bear the risk of surgery, the risk of postoperative sequelae, and to overcome the psychological fear of surgery, so whether to perform surgery needs to be judged according to one's own situation, rather than blindly following!

    MCT technology realizes vision recovery and myopia control through night wearing lenses, directly prevents the further growth of the eye axis from the front with the help of the upper eyelid, slows down the progress of myopia, and at the same time corrects the corneal curvature, prevents the cornea from convex forward, and makes the cornea flatter, so as to achieve the dual purpose of restoring unaided vision and myopia control. Moreover, the MCT technology also has a patented large-diameter optical area design, which makes the defocusing effect around the lens more complete and accurate, ensuring more powerful control!

    Surgical versus non-surgical differences exist in terms of age groups, as well as differences in different vision conditions. Surgery is adapted to adults, and non-surgical MCT techniques are adapted to adults as well as minors!

    Myopia surgery is still accompanied by certain risks, you can try to use MCT orthokeratology lenses to control myopia.

    MCT technology is a digital orthokeratology lens technology that has obtained a number of national patents, including a complete and standardized set of contents such as patient examination, lens design, fitting, lens care, and after-sales service. MCT technology orthokeratology lens is an innovative personalized digital design of rigid contact lenses, eliminating the need for traditional try-on evaluation, through the precise physical shaping of the cornea, change the curvature of the cornea, thereby changing the refractive power of the eye, insisting on wearing can effectively delay the progression of myopia.

    In addition, MCT technology is also suitable for the correction of myopia with presbyopia, the differential diagnosis of subclinical keratoconus, the prevention and control of fundus complications of pathological myopia, and the solution of vision problems such as sequelae of laser surgery.

    Myopia is irreversible At present, there is no effective drug**, only to correct myopia, and orthokeratology lenses have a good effect on correcting myopia. Corneal laser surgery to correct myopia is generally not recommended because it is performed on a normal cornea. In fact, eyeglasses are the first choice.

    Orthokeratology lenses can reduce myopia, but they are not yet able to correct myopia.

    Guidance: And it takes half a year or according to the degree of myopia to replace the lens, the cost is relatively large. Myopia eye surgery is now relatively safe, and after the surgery, the vision can return to normal without affecting the vision after aging.

    Whether a child who has just discovered myopia should be equipped with orthokeratology lenses should be analyzed on a case-by-case basis. If the child has early onset of myopia, has a higher prescription, and has a longer eye axis, or if both parents have high myopia, the child is more likely to develop high myopia in the future. When these high-risk factors are present, orthokeratology lenses should be worn to control the growth of myopia.

    Principles of orthokeratology lenses.

    Orthokeratology lenses use a special inverse geometry of rigid highly oxygen-permeable orthokeratology lenses, the inner surface of which is composed of multiple arcs.

    Using the uneven distribution of the lens and the tear layer, through the tear film conduction pressure in the ** area and the tear siphoning effect in the reverse arc area, the corneal curvature degree is gradually flattened and the eye axis is shortened, so as to reduce myopia and astigmatism, and can effectively correct myopia and control the development rate of myopia.

    Adapt to the crowd. It is suitable for children over the age of 7 who have myopia within 600 degrees, regular astigmatism less than 150 degrees, irregular astigmatism less than 100 degrees, and has better myopia control effect for adolescents and children whose myopia growth is too fast.

    1. Orthokeratology lenses can prevent myopia from progressing to varying degrees.

    2. Orthokeratology lenses are mostly suitable for the age range of adolescents and effectively curb the progression of myopia.

    3. In the process of orthokeratology lens correction of myopia, the lens can be changed at any time according to the change of the refractive state of the eye.

    4. The range of myopia correction with orthokeratology stuffy lens is myopia within 500 degrees.

    5. Orthokeratology lenses need to be worn at night, and if you stop wearing glasses, you will return to myopia.

    6. Orthokeratology lenses need to pay attention to hygiene, clean the lenses before and after taking them off, and soak them in the care solution.

    Principles of myopia surgery.

    According to the degree of myopia, the crude lead bend accurately calculates the amount of corneal thickness that should be cut by a computer, and the cornea is cut with a laser, which is equivalent to adding a concave lens of the same thickness (myopia glasses) to the cornea.

    In this way, the angle of light entering the eyeball is changed, so that the object can accurately gather on the retina of the fundus, so as to achieve the purpose of correcting myopia. It is capable of both myopia and farsightedness and astigmatism.

    Suitable for. 1. The correction range is within 1000 degrees, and the astigmatism is within 600 degrees.

    2. Age 18-45 years old.

    3. Myopia surgery changes the eye shape of myopic patients and achieves the effect of not myopia.

    4. Myopia surgery requires strict preoperative examination, and after complete recovery after surgery, the probability of secondary myopia is very low, and there is no need to wear glasses again.

    5. Myopia eye surgeryAt present, myopia surgery has been carried out at home and abroad for nearly 20 years, and no discomfort and safety of the refractive state of the eye have been found.

    The best fit for orthokeratology lenses is:People with moderate myopiaIn patients with high myopia, orthokeratology lenses generally cannot be corrected to the optimal visual acuity level (monocular, binocular level).

    Generally speaking, within -5d (500 degrees of myopia), astigmatism myopia and astigmatism), intraocular pressure is normal, corneal topography parameters are basically normal, the correction effect of orthokeratology lenses is relatively good, and it is generally worn continuously at night for more than a month, and the average naked eye vision during the day is expected to reach one eye and both eyes. If you correct high myopia, the effect of breathable hard lenses is better.

    Answer: 1000 degrees of myopia must not be able to use orthokeratology lenses, orthokeratology lenses require a maximum of 600 degrees of myopia, and you cannot wear more than this degree. Therefore, if the myopia develops rapidly, and the degree is less than 600 degrees, go to the hospital for examination to see if you can use orthokeratology lenses to control it.

    In addition to orthokeratology lenses, 1000-degree myopia can be considered with RGP lenses or glasses with defocus function during the day, or posterior scleral reinforcement can be done under the guidance of an ophthalmologist to delay the rapid progression of myopia.

    No, the orthokeratology lens you are talking about is MCT, it can only be worn below 500 degrees of myopia, and the astigmatism is too high to wear. If you are highly myopia, you can choose to wear RGP, and the effect is good. I didn't know about these professional things at first, but I only knew about them after experiencing them myself.

    By the way, isn't there an eye hospital on Renmin Road in Ningbo, which is equipped there.

Although the laser surgery for myopia is a laser cutting of the cornea and thinning the cornea, the current laser minimally invasive surgery is carried out without destroying the stability of the corneal tissue structure and within the range of safety values, and the doctor will estimate that the postoperative corneal thickness is not lower than the corneal safety value before the operation, so as to ensure the postoperative safety and the effect after the operation. Therefore, even after myopia laser surgery, the corneal protection function is very safe.
