Myopia surgeries usually include myopic laser surgery, ICL IOL implantation, and posterior sclera reinforcement surgery. It can cause effects on the body such as decreased visual quality, infection inside the eye, and rejection of materials by the eye.
1. Myopia laser surgery: Myopia laser surgery is to cut the cornea optical area through a certain nanometer wavelength laser to change the curvature of the cornea to achieve a better vision of the naked eye. Post-operative effects such as dry and tired eyes and reduced visual quality may occur.
2. ICL IOL implantation surgery: ICL surgery is to turn the lens of framed glasses into a very thin IOL and put it into the eye. The biggest risk of this kind of surgery is the incision, which may lead to intraocular infection.
3. Posterior Sclera Reinforcement Surgery: The back of the eye is reinforced with a layer of special material to slow down the development of myopia. This type of surgery involves implanting the material at the back of the eye, so the biggest risk is the effect of rejection of the implanted material by the eye.
Although eye surgery has become minimally invasive, each type of myopia surgery carries different risks, and patients should talk to their doctor about choosing the right procedure.
