Is cataract surgery risky?

Everyone understands the problem of cataracts, because the appearance of cataracts has a great impact on our body, and may even cause inflammation, and finally lead to permanent vision loss and inability to see clearly. The risk of cataract surgery is still relatively high, but now the surgery has undergone many clinical trials, and the surgery is no longer so traditional, but some new minor surgeries.

For hyperopia of around 19D (1900 degrees), inflammation is inevitable after the lens sinks into the vitreous cavity, eventually leading to complete loss of vision.

Lifestyle Prevention

1. Pay attention to mental adjustment: stay calm in the face of things, be broad-minded, keep your emotions good, and control your anger. Cultivating an interest in growing flowers, birds, and goldfish to cultivate one's sentiments, and talking more with young people can distract attention from unpleasant things, arouse a strong passion for life, and can help prevent and delay the progression of the disease. 2. Strengthen eye hygiene, do not rub your eyes with your hands, and do not use unclean handkerchiefs or towels to wipe or wash your eyes. After overusing your eyes, you should relax appropriately. People who sit for long periods of time should get up and move around for 10 to 15 minutes every 1 to 2 hours, look into the distance, or do eye exercises. Get enough sleep and recover from fatigue in time.

3. Actively prevent and treat chronic diseases, including eye diseases and systemic diseases. Especially diabetes is most likely to be complicated by cataracts. It is necessary to control blood sugar in a timely and effective manner to prevent further development of the disease.

4. The diet should be rich in protein, calcium, and trace elements, and eat more foods containing vitamins A, B, C, and D. Eating more fish on a regular basis can maintain normal vision and slow down the progression of the disease.

5. It has been proven in practice that smoking is more likely to cause cataracts, so you should quit smoking as soon as possible.
