Are there any after-effects of myopic surgery?

Myopic patients who have surgery may have sequelae, such as dry eye, glaucoma, corneal scarring and so on. The purpose of surgical treatment for myopic patients is to reduce myopia or cure myopia, and the common clinical procedures include keratoconus surgery and artificial lens implantation. Some myopic patients may experience sequelae such as dry eye, glaucoma and corneal scarring after surgery. Also, some patients may experience sequelae such as blurred vision, astigmatism, and retinal tears. The severity of the sequelae varies depending on the individual’s eye condition and the level of postoperative eye care, and some myopic patients do not experience any sequelae after surgery. In order to minimize the after-effects, patients need to undergo a comprehensive examination before the surgery, and the surgeon should evaluate the patient’s condition before selecting the appropriate surgical plan and checking the contraindications. It is recommended that myopic patients consult regular hospitals for examination, and also adjust their mindset to actively cooperate with the doctor’s treatment to avoid excessive tension and anxiety. After surgery, eye care should be strengthened to prevent infection.
