Can myopia and astigmatism be corrected together with surgery?

Both myopia and astigmatism are refractive errors and can usually be corrected together during surgery, depending on the physician’s examination and evaluation. If the patient’s eyes have both myopia and astigmatism, they can choose excimer laser surgery, femtosecond laser surgery and other surgeries to correct them according to their own conditions, and when the surgery is designed, both myopia and astigmatism are corrected at the same time. Patients need to check the degree of myopia, physical condition, age of the eyes in advance, and also need to undergo optometry, corneal topography and other related examinations, so that surgical correction can be carried out when conditions permit. Patients also need to regulate good mood in advance, pay attention to eye rest, avoid eating spicy and stimulating food, save local cleanliness and hygiene, avoid inducing inflammation, infection and other uncomfortable symptoms. It is recommended that patients with myopia and astigmatism visit regular hospitals in time to assess their condition and choose the appropriate treatment under the guidance of the doctor.
