What is the reason for the eyeball to bulge outwards? What should I do if my myopic eyes bulge outwards?

We will find that people who wear myopia glasses for a long time will have their eyeballs bulging outward after taking off their glasses. They can correct their vision in time through some methods. The most common method is laser surgery to treat myopia, which is safe and effective.

1. Due to long-term wearing of myopia glasses, some friends have symptoms of protruding eyeballs, especially those with high myopia, which will affect their appearance. Many myopic friends believe that if they do not wear glasses, the protruding eyeballs will change, so they choose laser treatment for myopia.

2. Facts show that myopic patients who took off their glasses after undergoing laser surgery for myopia found that the change in their exophthalmos was not obvious, or did not achieve the expected results. What is the reason for this?

Because laser surgery for myopia only changes the refractive power of the cornea, but does not change the accommodation of the entire eyeball and the refractive power of the lens, although you don't need to wear glasses after the operation, the condition of exophthalmos will not change at all. Moreover, after a period of time, the effect of myopia glasses will gradually disappear and the expected effect will not be achieved. Also, because the eyes need to maintain their normal refractive accommodation, the accommodation strength and refractive power of the eyeball will not change, which will cause the condition of exophthalmos to remain unchanged for a long time (at most the changes will be very slow).

4. Therefore, myopia laser surgery itself cannot change the condition of protruding eyeballs, and the eyeballs will become smaller after the surgery. Only natural recovery without surgical methods can the protruding eyeballs be completely eliminated. Theoretically, changing the exophthalmos will necessarily change the refractive power of the eye, and the result of this treatment is a partial reduction.

There are many problems with myopia, especially exophthalmos which is very scary. So how should exophthalmos be treated? Many effective treatment measures are introduced above. It is hoped that myopia can be completely cured through laser treatment. Therefore, it is a good idea to use this method to treat exophthalmos.
