In the outpatient clinic, many sports enthusiasts will ask: Can I continue to exercise after myopia surgery? Will it affect my exercise after surgery?
It may seem like you've fallen into a cycle, but here's the truth
Exercise is possible after myopia surgery, but there are time and conditions that limit it
Laser myopia surgery is mainly performed on the stromal layer of the cornea of myopic patients, without harming other eye tissues. Lens implantation myopia surgery is commonly known as implanting a special "** glasses" into the eye to achieve the effect of correcting vision. Both are anterior segment surgeries, so you can move normally after surgery!
Some people have also asked Xiao Ai: Will laser myopia surgery affect the stability of the corneal structure and lead to the risk of exercise when laser myopia surgery acts on the surface layer of the patient's cornea?
In fact, before myopia surgery, you will be given a comprehensive and systematic preoperative examination, through more than 20 detailed examinations to determine whether your eyes are suitable for myopia surgery, and the doctor will comprehensively evaluate the myopia correction plan that is more beneficial to the patient according to the examination and eye condition.
Therefore, after myopia surgery, the structural stability of the cornea is still there, and it does not affect normal movement under normal circumstances.
There are time and condition restrictions on how long you can exercise after surgery.
Although myopia surgery is minimally invasive, it also requires some time for the eye to recover. Normally:
1. You can basically live a normal life for 1-2 days after surgery;
2. One week after surgery, you can do daily and less strenuous exercises such as walking;
3. Try to avoid basketball, football and other confrontational sports within 3 months after surgery, and avoid external impact; Postoperatively.
4. Try not to swim within half a year and do not dive within a year to prevent eye infections caused by different eye conditions.
Correspondingly, Shenzhen Aier Eye Hospital has set up postoperative re-examinations at these three time points, and the ban can be gradually lifted after the doctor's examination is confirmed to be correct, and the "no mirror" exercise can begin.
In conclusion, myopia surgery can open the door to a clearer life, allowing you to unleash your potential in sports and pursue higher achievements. If you also want to get rid of the shackles of glasses and enjoy the joy of sports to the fullest, then take this step bravely and embrace a clearer life!
