Is myopia treated with laser?

Myopia can be treated with laser.

For patients over 18 years old with stable refractive power and corneal thickness, laser surgery can be performed. At present, laser surgery can be divided into excimer laser surgery and femtosecond laser surgery. The principle of action is to cut the cornea by laser, change the refractive power of the cornea, and achieve the purpose of correcting vision. However, for patients with high myopia degree and corneal thickness that cannot be guaranteed to be greater than 400μm after surgery, they do not meet the requirements of laser corneal refractive surgery and cannot undergo laser surgery. At this time, patients can consider intraocular lens implantation, which can also achieve the purpose of improving vision.
