Diabetic fundus hemorrhage laser surgery is not a major surgery.
Fundus laser, i.e. retinal laser photocoagulation, the main principle is to utilize the bio-thermal coagulation effect of laser to destroy the occluded area of capillaries and reduce the oxygen consumption of the retina, which not only prevents regeneration of neovascularization but also indirectly achieves the purpose of stopping hemorrhage by making the abnormal neovascularization subside.
Conventional fundus laser takes about 15 minutes to complete once, eye surface anesthesia, no radiation, harmless to human body, no need for hospitalization, outpatient can be completed, does not affect the work and life. However, fundus laser usually cannot be completed in one session. Depending on the degree of fundus lesions, the laser may need to be performed 3 to 4 times. Regular follow-up is required after treatment, with additional laser treatments as necessary.
If the diabetic retinal disease has reached a level that requires laser, if the disease is allowed to progress without laser, it will worsen and you will be at risk of losing your eyesight.
