Wuhan Evening News (reporter Roland) winter vacation has arrived, laser myopia surgery into a small peak. Many netizens asked related questions, there are young people who love beauty want to take off the "glass window" that blocks the beautiful pupils, but the parents are worried about "side effects" How can they disagree; some elders ask for the children whether the newer the technology, the more expensive the better? Some netizens asked whether it would rebound or leave sequelae after surgery?

Professor Li Xinyu has been engaged in ophthalmology clinical work for more than 30 years, and is good at full femtosecond, half femtosecond, excimer laser surgery, etc., and has successfully completed tens of thousands of myopia correction surgeries so far, guiding many hospitals across the country to carry out surgery. He said that excimer lasers and femtosecond lasers are two sharp weapons used in myopia surgery, which use different laser characteristics to treat myopia. Excimer laser has an ablative effect on tissues and can vaporize the cornea; femtosecond laser has a precise cutting effect, which can penetrate the cornea for deep cutting. "In layman's terms, it's all about making subtle adjustments to the camera lens so that it can clearly photograph external objects."

Regarding the contraindications to surgery, Professor Li Xinyu said that the age of patients should generally be over 18 years old and under 45 years old. In some special cases, the age requirement may be appropriately relaxed after evaluation if there are no contraindications to surgery. For example, some children who want to go to school, even if they are still a few months away from the age of 18, can also operate on the premise that the degree of myopia is stable. Other contraindications to surgery, including systemic or eye, should be examined and followed as directed by a physician.
