Changsha Evening News, Changsha, December 11 (Quan** reporter Peng Fang, correspondent Nie Zhujun) "Before the operation, there was only 0 left in the left eye1 eyesight, now I don't even need to wear glasses to thread the needle, I'm really happy!Today, at Changsha Aier Eye Hospital, 80-year-old Zhang Xiaoyu was re-examined and told her that her far, middle and near vision in both eyes reached 08~1.0。Not long ago, she underwent refractive cataract surgery here to solve two vision problems of cataract and presbyopia at one time.
A few days ago, at the "2023 China and Europe Refractive Cataract Surgery" held in Changsha, as a beneficiary of refractive cataract surgery, Zhang Xiaoyu shared the transformation of her vision.
One surgery to solve vision problems such as cataracts, presbyopia, etc.
Zhang Xiaoyu has been retired for almost 30 years, and her spare time life is very rich. The biggest regret is that more than 10 years ago, she began to have vision loss and was diagnosed with cataracts, but because she was worried about the safety and effect of the operation, she did not undergo the operation until the vision of both eyes was severely reduced, and the vision of her left eye was only 01. Near-blindness, which seriously affects daily life. Not long ago, Zhang Xiaoyu finally came to Changsha Aier Eye Hospital with the encouragement of her daughter.
After receiving the consultation, Tang Qiongyan, deputy head of the cataract group of Aier Eye Hospital Group and vice president of Changsha Aier Eye Hospital, after detailed examination and preoperative communication, comprehensively considered Zhang Xiaoyu's eye needs and eye conditions, and tailored a refractive cataract surgery plan for her - the use of femtosecond laser-assisted trifocal lens implantation, and satisfactory results were achieved after surgery.
There was no pain during the surgery, and I really regret that I didn't do it sooner. Zhang Xiaoyu said.
Tang Qiongyan said that the previous cataract surgery was only a vision restoration operation, and the eyes had myopia, presbyopia and other problems, and they still needed to wear glasses. Nowadays, refractive cataract surgery can solve a variety of vision problems such as cataract, farsightedness, myopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia in one operation in one operation.
It is recommended that cataract patients have early check-up**.
** According to the data, among the 45 to 64-year-olds, 70% of European patients choose to have refractive cataract surgery, while only 40% of Chinese patients choose this type of advanced surgery. Not only that, European patients are more likely to choose refractive cataract surgery when they are relatively young and their vision is not very poor. 57% of European patients chose the international low vision standard (0.).3) Refractive cataract surgery is performed, and only 33% of patients in China will have their visual acuity reduced to 03. Surgery has been performed before.
The younger age of refractive cataract surgery is a global trend. Tang Qiongyan reminded that cataract patients do not have to wait until the late stage when they are almost invisible before surgery, and when middle-aged and elderly people have symptoms such as blurred vision, double vision, photophobia, glare or reading glasses and still can't see clearly, it is recommended to go to a regular ophthalmic medical institution for examination as soon as possible to seek a suitable and scientific diagnosis and treatment plan.
