When is the best time for cataract surgery? What is the best time to have cataract surgery?

Cataracts are a condition in which the lens is clouded and vision is reduced. As long as your vision affects your life, you can do it. In the past, it was said that cataracts could only be done when they were mature, and it was for the first type of surgery at that time, cataract cystectomy.

Nowadays, cataract surgery is mainly performed by extracapsular extraction or phacoemulsification extraction, and the choice of which one depends mainly on the degree of lens opacity and the hardness of the lens, but no cataract maturation is required in either case.

Generally speaking, the sooner it is done, the less difficult the surgery will be, because as the lens becomes more and more cloudy, the lens will become harder and harder, and the cloudy lens is not easy to remove from the eye, and the more traumatic the surgery will be.

Cataract is caused by oxidative damage to the lens due to aging, metabolic abnormalities, light radiation, nutritional disorders and other factors, resulting in crystal fibrin degeneration, hydrolysis, and turbidity of the lens, resulting in visual impairment, just like the lens is damaged and the image is not clear. The best way to cataract is surgery, and a good intraocular lens can be used to image and see clearly.

The lens is easy to be damaged by oxidation because of the lack of protective substance - lutein, when the cataract is not very serious (vision does not seriously affect daily life), it is recommended to take lutein to protect the lens to prevent the deterioration of the condition and prevent other eye diseases, so it is better to be conservative, because there are more complications after cataract surgery, and it is easy to do it after surgery. When severe vision loss has affected daily work and life, surgery should be considered.

In the past, surgery had to wait until it was mature and fell off, but now it can be done at any time.

According to what you said, you should be age-related cataract, and the best period for surgery is maturity, and I think if you go to the hospital, the doctor will grasp the best time for surgery!

The best time for cataract surgery, in general, it is better to do it as soon as possible, especially if cataract has a great impact on life and work, it is recommended to do surgery immediately.

It is necessary to choose the best period to prevent various complications such as glaucoma secondary to cataracts, and lutein supplementation can prevent various complications.

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 eyesight has a great impact on 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 time, from the first annihilation to us, 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 need to improve the refraction, improve the quality of life, and raise the standard of living.

For mature or dilated cataracts, it is recommended to have them as early as possible**.

In the past, it was believed that it was best to have surgery for senile cataract when it was impossible to see and the cataract was fully mature, mainly because in the previous cataract enucleation, the lens was completely clouded was the best time for surgery. In recent years, due to the progress of science and technology, the development of ophthalmic microsurgery and the advent of intraocular lenses, the surgical method of cataract has been greatly improved.

At present, modern extracapsular cataract extraction and phacoemulsification extraction are mainly used, and in recent years, cataract laser extraction has also been carried out, these surgeries are performed under the microscope, and from the perspective of surgical technology, there is no problem in removing the transparent lens, so the surgery does not necessarily have to wait until the lens is completely opaque (cataract maturation).

The vision basically returns to normal in about a week, and can be fully recovered in a month, look less at the mobile phone and computer, and go to outdoor activities more, but do not do strenuous exercise, avoid coughing and dry stools, eat less spicy substances, and use antibiotic eye drops at an appropriate time.

When the patient already feels uncomfortable, he should seek medical attention in time and consider surgery, so as not to delay the first opportunity and affect the quality of life.

Cataract surgery currently has the highest success rate, as long as cataract affects daily life, the operation time can be selected according to the patient's vision requirements. If the vision requirements are not particularly high, then you can choose temporary observation, and choose the following in the operation, but the operation can not be too late, if the lens is too mature, it will cause many complications, and the surgical effect will be greatly reduced, so different cataract patients can choose to do surgery at different times. 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.

Considering congenital cataract, the postoperative effect of congenital cataract mainly depends on the condition of the patient's visual function development, many patients still have amblyopia after cataract removal, which will affect the recovery of vision.

As long as the patient feels that the vision is reduced and looks blurry, and the symptoms are found to be caused by the opacity of the patient's lens, cataract surgery can be performed, especially now with the advancement of cataract technology and the advancement of surgical materials, most of which can achieve the desired ** effect after the operation. The surgical effect of congenital cataract is better after 2 to 4 months, and the older the age, the longer the fundus coverage time, the greater the impact on vision development.

The timing of surgery can vary greatly from patient to patient. For a person who is engaged in delicate work and needs more vision, surgery can be done earlier. At present, it is common for the vision of the affected eye to undergo surgery in developed countries, and the number of cases with such requirements in China is also increasing; For a person who does not require high vision, it is not unreasonable to wait until the vision is poor.

In short, when to undergo surgery**, it is necessary to start from the actual requirements of the patient, and the doctor and patient must discuss to determine the timing of the operation.

Is it better to have surgery in the summer or in the fall?

This should be subject to the doctor's arrangement and considered according to the severity of the condition.

Now that the level of surgery has improved, you can do it whenever you want.

The best time for cataract surgery is when cataract is diagnosed.

Hello, due to the limitation of medical technology, in the past, cataract had to wait until it was completely "mature", the affected eye could not be operated on, and the patient needed to endure the troubles and pain of low vision for a long time, and today, with the continuous innovation and improvement of instruments and equipment, it is the application and development of phacoemulsification aspiration combined with intraocular lens implantation surgery, so that the safety and effectiveness of cataract surgery have been greatly improved, and cataract surgery can be operated without waiting for complete blindness.

Today, with the continuous innovation and improvement of instruments and equipment, it is the application and development of phacoemulsification aspiration combined with intraocular lens implantation surgery, which greatly improves the safety and effectiveness of cataract surgery, and cataract surgery can be operated without waiting for complete blindness.

As long as it affects the eyesight and affects the life, the operation can be done, and there is no need to wait until the vision is not visible. It is a misconception that cataracts can only be operated on until they are completely invisible. In recent years, Dalian He's Ophthalmology has adopted small incision, seamless closure and phacoemulsification intraocular lens implantation, which greatly advances the timing of cataract surgery.

As long as you have cataract and affect your life, you can have surgery**. If you have any other questions, please visit the official website of Dalian He Eye Hospital for consultation.

The best time to perform cataract surgery is to wait for the cataract to reach maturity.

The best stage of cataract is once it is determined that the lens opacity obviously affects the vision, the operation should be carried out as soon as possible, only through the surgical **can be thorough**, after the operation, you should pay more attention to rest, you should not eat seafood in the diet, at the same time, too greasy food should not be eaten, you can drink more boiled water, eat more vitamin-rich fruits and vegetables, the above is Quanzhou Aier Eye Hospital to tell you, if there are any questions, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a detailed consultation.
