Keratomileusis Q&A

1.Q: What is keratomileusis? Flogging: It is a non-surgical method of correcting myopia by wearing a rigid corneal contact lens at night. 2.Q: How do keratoplasty lenses treat myopia? What is the principle of treatment? A: Specially designed keratoplasty lenses are worn on the cornea to reduce the refractive power of the eye by producing a certain amount of pressure on the cornea to make the anterior surface of the cornea flatter. By using the memory of the corneal shape, the central part of the cornea remains flat for a certain period of time after the lens is removed. When the cornea is flattened, the focal length of the eye is lengthened, which allows the focus of the incoming light from the front of the fundus of the myopic eye to move just to the retina, thus achieving the purpose of treatment. 3.Q: Who are the main users of keratomileusis? A: The best correction is within -600 degrees, regular astigmatism is less than 150 degrees, irregular astigmatism is less than 100D; suitable for people mainly under 18 years old and some special occupations who cannot perform laser surgery. Monocular myopia with keratomileusis can reduce binocular aberration and promote binocular monovision. 4.Q: What should I pay attention to after wearing the lens?
