But Zhao Dabo (pseudonym) of Hangzhou
In a beauty salon, I only had one beauty salon and encountered bad things
Not only age spots are not properly addressed
He was also injured in the eye by a laser and almost lost his sight
Fortunately, he is in the Department of Ophthalmology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine
It took emergency surgery to regain its light
The 68-year-old Uncle Dabo laser spottered and injured his eyes
Zhao Dabo, 68 years old this year, tall and moderately sized, joined the community model team after retirement, and is often active in various party performances.
With the "reputation" getting bigger and bigger, Zhao Dabo put forward higher requirements for his appearance, recently, looking at the age spots on the face is very upset, under the recommendation of "teammates", he is determined to go to a beauty salon to carry out skin laser spots.
"My spots are mainly concentrated on the temples on both sides, and I was ready to do treatment on both sides from the beginning." Zhao Dabo said that at the end of the first treatment, the therapist told him that he found that he also had a small patch on his right eyelid, which could be done by the way. Thinking that although there was a little tingling in the treatment process, it was still tolerable and free, and Uncle Zhao accepted it with joy.
So, without any protective measures, the therapist simply made him close his eyes and then performed a laser treatment on his right eye. Only to hear an "ah" sound, Zhao Dabo threw away the therapist's hand and quickly covered his eyes, it turned out that because the tingling sensation was stronger than just now, Zhao Dabo involuntarily opened his eyes when the laser hit the eyelids, and instantly felt a sharp pain in his right eye.
"After trying to open my eyes, I found that my right eye was obviously blurred, so I immediately ran to the ophthalmology department of a hospital nearest to the beauty salon." After examination, the ophthalmologist of the hospital said that Zhao Dabo's cornea was burned by lasers, although it would leave scars, but it was not a big problem, and only local drug eye drops were needed to get better.
The entire right eyeball was deflated
Emergency surgery vision returns to 0.8
But after 3 days of medication, Zhao Dabo still feels pain in his right eye, and things are getting more and more blurred, if you close your left eye, you can hardly move freely, and he quickly came directly to the ophthalmology department of the First Hospital of Zhejiang University for treatment.
"The patient's thinking was very clear when he came to the doctor, according to his description, we quickly conducted an examination and found that his right front chamber had completely disappeared, the anterior aqueous humor, which was extremely important for maintaining the function of the cornea and crystals, had almost leaked light, and the intraocular pressure was also very low, only 3mmHg (normal range 10-21mmHg), which was equivalent to the entire eyeball collapsing. After fluorescein staining, we found that the corneal burn was still leaking outwards, indicating that the laser had penetrated the entire cornea, and the low intraocular pressure also secondary to the detachment of the choroid, and the patient's vision was in danger. Dr. Yu Chenying of the Zhejiang Ophthalmology Department introduced.
Although the wound was very close to the center of the right cornea, fortunately the wound was small and the laser did not damage other eye tissues, and Zhao Dabo underwent emergency surgery on the same day, and the doctor sutured his corneal wound.
Half a month after the operation, The wound in the right cornea of Uncle Zhao's eye has basically healed, and his vision has also returned to 0.8.
"I will never be 'smelly and beautiful' again, the first time I went to a beauty salon in my life, I suffered such a loss." After recovering, Uncle Zhao was still full of regret.
The safety of medical lasers is guaranteed
Beware of laser damage in life
Seeing this, many fans will wonder: can all kinds of beauty lasers continue to do in the future? Femtosecond laser correction of myopia is also the use of lasers to treat eye diseases, why not cause harm?
"At this point, the majority of beauty lovers can rest assured that in our regular units such as Zhejiang Plastic Surgery and Beauty Center, this risk can be eliminated." The biggest mistake of this uncle is to choose a beauty salon for laser treatment! Wu Huiling, chief physician of the Plastic Surgery and Beauty Center of the First Hospital of Zhejiang University, said that in the laser beauty process, as long as the operation is standardized, this danger can be avoided. On the one hand, patients will wear goggles when receiving treatment, doctors will also wear goggles when operating, and it is strictly forbidden for anyone to enter the treatment room during the operation (laser treatment sites will have clear yellow warning signs), on the other hand, even if laser operation is required on the eyelids, it will be professionally handled, tightly pressed eyelids, to avoid accidents. Of course, these require experienced medical professionals to operate.
"There are many different types of lasers, and femtosecond lasers are not the same as lasers used in skin beauty." Professor Yang Yabo, director of the Refractive Surgery Center of the First Hospital of Zhejiang University, explained that the femtosecond laser is to use the laser as a "scalpel" to accurately cut the cornea, so as to achieve the purpose of correcting the diopter, and the femtosecond laser can accurately focus on the corneal layer, and there will be no thermal effect during the action, and it will not cause damage to other eye tissues.
In general, the use of lasers for medical treatment purposes has strict qualifications, and safety is guaranteed, but experts remind you to beware of other eye trauma in life. "In particular, avoid hitting the eyes with laser pointers." Cui Hongguang, executive deputy director of the Department of Ophthalmology of the First Hospital of Zhejiang University, reminded that cases and reports of laser toys injuring the eyes occur from time to time every year, laser direct shooting into the eyes, will damage the macular area of the visual cells sensitive to light, if the damage is larger, the cells can not be repaired, it will cause permanent damage to vision, so try to avoid children in life using laser toys, once an accident occurs, you need to go to the doctor for the first time.
