Surgical correction of myopia has increasingly become a popular choice for young people and even middle-aged people to remove glasses. Recently, Ms. Wang, who was born in the 80s, underwent refractive correction surgery in the Refractive Department of Guangzhou Aier Eye Hospital affiliated to Jinan University, which not only solved the high myopia and astigmatism for more than 20 years, but also alleviated the symptoms of early presbyopia, and no longer needed to wear myopia and reading glasses.
It is difficult to see far and blurry, and post-80s women have suffered a vision crisis
As a full-time wife after the 80s, ms. Wang, 42, has spent half her life on her family and children, and she has been wearing heavy glasses since she was short-sighted. In recent years, she has found that her vision has become worse and worse - it is difficult to see far and blurry, it is estimated that it is old, and a pair of glasses can not solve this problem at all. Later, after being introduced by a friend, she found Professor Wang Zheng, president of Guangzhou Aier Eye Hospital, for medical treatment. After examination, it was found that Ms. Wang's vision was not ideal, with high myopia and high astigmatism (775 degrees of myopia in the right eye, 150 degrees of astigmatism, 625 degrees of myopia in the left eye, and 275 degrees of astigmatism). And due to her age, Ms. Wang has developed symptoms of early presbyopia.
The refractive physician examined Ms. Wang's eyes
The problem of vision not only adds a lot of trouble to her life, but also hides a safety hazard. For example, Ms. Wang, who usually likes to run, is extremely inconvenient to wear glasses and easy to slip off; if she wears contact lenses instead, her eyes are often dry and uncomfortable over time.
Myopia, astigmatism and presbyopia, a three-fold problem at once
Because Ms. Wang is highly myopic, astigmatism and presbyopia, the situation is more complicated, and it is not simply "with a pair of glasses" can be solved. Professor Wang Zheng said that it is not uncommon in the clinic that Ms. Wang combines the triple problems of myopia, astigmatism and presbyopia, and with the advancement of medical technology, the use of TCL intraocular lens implantation can help Ms. Wang solve the triple problem at one time.
Dean Wang Zheng performed ICL lens implantation on patients
It is understood that ICL lens implantation can correct myopia within 1800 degrees and astigmatism within 600 degrees. At the same time, thanks to the iris navigation system, precise implantation is achieved. This technique is suitable for myopic patients with thin corneas, high degrees, or myopia who are not suitable for laser surgery and are accompanied by astigmatism.
A week after the operation, Ms. Wang's long-distance and near-range vision in both eyes achieved the expected effect, and she herself was amazed: "To know that the operation effect is so good, I came to the operation earlier." ”
"Visual aging" is not an isolated case, and experts call for attention to early solution
In fact, the situation like Ms. Wang is not unique, after entering the age of 40, the situation of presbyopia is gradually obvious, Professor Wang Zheng pointed out that with the popularity of digital life, "excessive use of eyes" has become a hidden worry about their vision health. Vision problems have also gradually become a "new bottleneck" in their careers.
Professor Wang Zheng said that in the daily reception, it is often possible to encounter some older and highly myopic patients who have not chosen surgery to correct their vision for various reasons. After reaching a certain age, I have to endure the trouble of not seeing far and near clearly in my daily life, and carrying two pairs of glasses. In fact, people with high myopia, astigmatism, presbyopia and others can regain good vision through personalized surgical procedures.
It is worth noting that the longer the vision problem occurs, the more and more serious the problem may be, especially high myopia is a high risk factor for a series of fundus lesions, and severe cases may cause blindness. Therefore, Professor Wang Zheng called for the early medical treatment of vision loss and other discomfort symptoms in the eyes. (For more news, please pay attention to Yangcheng Pie pai.ycwb.com)
