Although cataract is a common disease in ophthalmology, there are still many people who have many outdated perceptions and misconceptions about cataract treatment.
This is an outdated view. With the application of ultrasound emulsification technology, surgery is possible as long as the vision is lower than normal and affects work and life, and at this time the surgery incision is small, painful, fast recovery and good postoperative effect.
The second misconception is age. Some people think that there is no need to do surgery when they are too old, but in fact, cataract surgery has broken through the age limit.
The third is whether those suffering from other diseases can be operated. In fact, elderly people suffer more from hypertension, diabetes and heart disease, and as long as their blood pressure, heart function and blood sugar are controlled by internal medicine within a relatively normal range, they can completely undergo surgery.
The fourth is the question of whether or not to put an artificial lens. Cataract surgery removes the cloudy lens, and the human eye becomes highly farsighted, like a camera with less lens.
