Things to note before myopia surgery

Nowadays, many children have symptoms of myopia, mainly because their mothers do not pay attention to protecting their children's eyesight. We cannot let children face electronic devices for a long time, and we cannot let children sit too low to do homework. We must take precautions to prevent vision loss. When children have vision loss, they should wear glasses for myopia. Some people will choose surgery to correct it, and then they need to understand the precautions before the operation.

1. Apply antibiotic eye drops at least 1 day in advance, 1 time/hour; if applying eye drops 3 days in advance, 4 times/day; What are the precautions before myopia surgery? In recent years, due to the needs of myopia patients in work and life, the number of patients undergoing myopia surgery has continued to increase. Doing a good job of preparation before myopia surgery is very helpful for myopia surgery.

2. Wash your hair, take a bath, and cut your nails the night before the operation; after local disinfection of the eyes before the operation, do not wipe or touch the eyes with your hands. While waiting before the operation, you should relax, don't be nervous, and don't talk or make loud noises in the preparation room, so as to avoid becoming overly excited during the operation and being unable to control your emotions, which will affect the outcome of the operation.

4. Do not use any cosmetics, perfume, hairspray, etc. on the day of the operation; people with scar-prone constitution and immune diseases are not suitable for LASIK surgery, because such people are prone to corneal opacity and refractive power regression after the operation. There are also contraindications in the eyes, such as acute and chronic inflammation of the anterior part of the eye, keratoconus, retinal holes, semi-holes or bleeding in the fundus, etc.

5. Do not drive to the hospital by yourself on the day of surgery; those with colds or other systemic diseases should choose another surgery date. This is very important in the preparation before laser surgery for myopia treatment.

6. If you experience any physical abnormalities, please inform your doctor so that they can be treated promptly. Facial makeup should be avoided on the day of surgery, especially makeup around the eyes and the use of volatile substances such as hairspray, as these will not only affect the surgical procedure, but also increase irritation to the operated eye and increase the risk of surgical infection.
