Is it better to open a cataract earlier or later?

Cataract is opened early, or it is better to open later, the cataract is generally opened later, and the thickness can be done almost before it can be done, if it is done early, it is not good for the eyes, and the cataract must be found after the thickness can be operated on.

Cataract is better to open later, cataract is not very bad, it is generally not opened, I can't tell what the specific scientific reason is, this problem can only be understood by the doctor in the ophthalmology hospital, I know that it is best to open cataract later.

It depends on the maturity of the cataract. Some people do it early, and it is still good to do it early. But some people, um, but some people don't necessarily do it, and it might be better to wait a while to do it.

It depends on the degree of your own eyes, my neighbor's sister-in-law has surgery on both eyes, cataract surgery, now it is better, and the vision is better.

Cataracts can play a big role if they open later.

It is better to prescribe cataracts early.

If the cataract is relatively mild, you can use intravitractic eye drops, and if it is heavy and you have a blurry feeling, you can do cataract surgery. Physician's advice: symptoms of cataracts, gradually decreasing after a period of time, blurred vision; There are also fixed black dots in front of the eyes, also known as floaters; The most common is seeing something deform or copy.

Precautionary measures: It is recommended to choose the ophthalmology department of a regular public hospital for examination, and if it is more severe, the general visual acuity is lower, and it is recommended to replace the intraocular lens surgically.

When you go to the eye hospital, the doctor will give advice, and it is not okay to do it too early, and it is not okay to do it late, in short, it is good to listen to the doctor.

In the past, there was a saying that cataracts should be operated on when they were mature, but now that medicine has developed, they can be prescribed without maturity.

Do it early, the only way to solve cataract in current medicine is surgery, through emulsified turbid lens sucking, implant intraocular lens, don't wait until the invisible is suitable to do it, not to mention increasing the difficulty of surgery, and it may also lead to eye lesions.

For cataract as an eye disease, the specific operation time and the most suitable operation time need to be decided according to the patient's own condition, if the patient feels that the cataract condition has affected the normal life, work and study, then cataract surgery can be taken**. Because today's phacoemulsification surgery has been very developed, there is no need to wait until the cataract is fully mature before the operation, and the operation after the cataract is fully mature will increase the difficulty and risk of the operation, so the specific time needs to be decided according to the patient's own condition and the doctor's examination and advice. The above is Quanzhou Aier Eye Hospital to tell you, if you still have any questions, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a detailed consultation.

It doesn't matter if you have surgery now, as long as there are no complications such as secondary glaucoma and endophthalmitis caused by cataracts, then the effect of surgery is the same as in the previous two years.

Accidents can occur in any surgery, and cataract surgery is no exception, but cataract surgery is a vision restoration surgery, which has been widely carried out in our country, and there will be no risk under normal circumstances. The operation ** is not much different in the country, and the difference mainly depends on the intraocular lens placed**, and the general 3-5,000 per eye is almost enough.

Waiting for the mature period to do cataract surgery is the old point of view, it is the age of the time when the technology and equipment are backward under the condition that you have to wait for the complete invisible operation, now as long as it affects work and life, as long as it affects work and life, as soon as possible, the operation is very hard, if you use phacoemulsification to do the lens nucleus is very hard, if you use phacoemulsification to discrete the nucleus, it requires a lot of energy, and the intraocular tissue is traumatic. Also, if the cataract has affected life, you must wait until the mature stage to have surgery, and some will have to wait for months, years or even more than ten years, and you can't see things clearly, what will the quality of life look like? Therefore, surgery should be done as soon as possible and never wait until it is mature.

As people age, cataracts will appear, but they can be mild or severe.

To grasp the timing of cataract surgery, we should avoid 3 misunderstandings.

For example, many old beliefs hold that cataracts should wait until their vision has deteriorated to the point where they need to have surgery. Not really. As cataracts worsen, the probability of postoperative complications increases.

Some patients can induce an acute attack of glaucoma for a long time, which seriously affects the surgical effect of cataract.

There is also a misconception that "the sooner cataract surgery is performed, the better". Although the operation time is greatly shortened and the postoperative recovery is fast with the continuous improvement of surgical methods, it does not mean that the cataract should be operated on as soon as it is found. Although intraocular lenses have been developed at a rapid pace in recent years, they are far from being comparable to human crystals.

The last misconception is about postoperative surgery, many patients are too careful after surgery, they dare not watch TV, dare not bow their heads to take things, in fact, it is not so necessary. It is worth reminding patients who have just undergone surgery, their vision has changed from a turbid state to a transparent state, and the patient is afraid of light, so it is recommended to wear a protective glasses, such as polarized light and anti-ultraviolet rays, to reduce the damage of ultraviolet rays to the retina. According to the doctor, if the elderly have blurred vision and decreased vision, they should go to the hospital for examination in time to make a clear diagnosis.

The timing of cataract surgery should be decided according to the individual situation of different patients.

It is worth reminding that timely cataract surgery is not the same as doing it as soon as possible. Ophthalmology experts explained that in recent years, the research and development speed of intraocular lenses has been very fast, but it is still inferior to the conditional ability of patients' own lenses in many aspects such as adjustment amplitude, adjustment speed and imaging quality.

It is not advisable to blindly do surgery too early and ignore the possible disadvantages after surgery. In general, patients with cataract who have less visual acuity than those who can interfere with their normal work and life may be considered for surgery**. Some patients with higher vision requirements may even consider surgery**.

Therefore, Chengdu Kejian Weimei ophthalmology experts reminded that before the operation of early cataract patients, both doctors and patients should have a full understanding of the degree of the disease and good communication, so as to determine the appropriate time for surgery and get the best surgical effect.

No, the development of cataract is divided into several stages, and it cannot be done in the early stage, and it can generally be done in the mature stage

There is an old misconception that cataracts must wait until the lens is ripe and the pupil is completely white before surgery**. In fact, cataracts in the mature and overmature stages not only bring great inconvenience to daily life and work, but also increase the risk of surgery. Now, due to the improvement of medical technology and equipment, cataract patients can choose surgery as long as their work, life and study are affected by cataracts**.

Solving the problem of cataract can also reduce the risk of falls and fractures in the elderly. Foreign studies have pointed out that the risk of hip fracture can be reduced within 1 year after cataract surgery, which fully shows the importance of cataract surgery for the vision health of the elderly.

Experts suggest that when the blurred vision caused by cataract affects daily life, surgery should be considered to avoid delaying the opportunity and affecting the quality of life.

Cataract**.

Many people know that cataracts wait until they are completely white or mature before doing it, and this saying did exist before. However, the conditions for the existence of this statement were twenty or thirty years ago, when our surgical conditions were not mature enough, and the surgical microscope was not popularized on a large scale, so it was necessary to use the naked eye to perform surgery. At that time, under the current conditions, if the cataract was not fully mature, the doctor could not see the location and extent of the cataract, so the surgery could only be performed after it was mature.

Now, with the progress of science and technology and the development of society, we now have a very good, clear operating microscope and very good surgical equipment, which can completely solve the cataract through a small incision, so we don't need to wait until the cataract is fully mature to do surgery.

The timing of cataract surgery mainly depends on the following aspects: one is the requirements or needs for vision, which is different for everyone; The other is how much his vision affects his quality of life and how dangerous it is to his health. To put it simply, for example, if someone is a painter or designer and has high requirements for visual quality, then his cataract can be done earlier. In a situation like this, as long as he personally feels that the cataract is causing visual disturbance and feels uncomfortable, even if the vision is there, we will have surgery.

For some people who usually use less eyes, work at home or have a relatively small range of activities, and have relatively low requirements for vision, they can also wait for the vision loss to be more serious, such as the following. But the choice of the best timing, from our current point of view, mainly depends on his personal requirements. In terms of the condition, the milder the degree of cataract itself, the lower the risk of surgery, the higher the safety of the operation, and the higher the probability of success, and now we have a lot of variety, functional lenses, which can not only solve the problem of vision, but also significantly improve the quality of vision, that is, our cataract surgery has developed from simple vision restoration surgery to refractive surgery.

Not only do we regain our sight, but we also want to improve our refraction, improve our quality of life, and raise our standard of living.

When the vision caused by cataract is blurred and affects daily life, surgery should be considered to avoid delaying the opportunity and affecting the quality of life.

Surgery is currently the most accepted method of cataract. Because cataract is caused by the clouding of the lens, drugs cannot make the lens clear again, and the intraocular lens must be replaced by surgery to cure the cataract. You can consider Aier Eye Hospital, a national chain.
