Is the vision regression a problem with the surgery?

“In general, patients with low to moderate myopia have the best results from surgery. People with high myopia will have a slightly higher chance of vision regression after surgery.” Beijing Tongren Hospital chief physician, Zhang Fengju told reporters that patients aged 18 years old-50 years old can have myopia surgery if they meet the indications. However, if the vision is unstable one year before the surgery, the vision may fluctuate after the surgery. For such people, the doctor will inform the patient before the operation and advise him/her to observe for a year before coming back for the operation. However, if the surgery is necessary to join the military or to pursue higher education, the patient will also be psychologically prepared. The professor said, “Historically, human beings were nearsighted and could not see well, so glasses were invented. Then people found it inconvenient to wear glasses, so contact lenses were invented. Then people felt that contact lenses still had all sorts of problems, so they invented myopia surgery. Nowadays, myopia correction is such a three-way street that exists side by side. You can choose according to your needs. A responsible doctor just needs to tell you the pros and cons of it and can give a targeted program, but the decision is still in the hands of the patient.” For his part, the professor emphasized the need for patients to have a scientific understanding of myopic surgery. “Many people only see us on the table for a few minutes and think the surgery is quick and easy. Ignoring the meticulous, comprehensive and perfect pre-operative examination, as well as the fine surgical design, and the doctor’s years of experience and accumulation. To maintain the perfect result of the surgery, the equipment, the doctor, the team that cooperates, the performance on the operating table, the patient must also cooperate, post-operative review, post-operative medication, many items articulate coherently to be better.” “Doctors still understand better, do surgery is three major factors,” said the expert, “the first indication selection, the second is the equipment, to see if it can be personalized, and the third is the choice of doctors, is not experienced, skilled. You can’t have one of the three factors without the other.”
