Myopic eye surgery how old can do

Myopia surgery can be done in some patients over 18 years old.

Myopia surgery generally includes corneal refractive surgery and artificial lens implantation. The above surgical methods are mainly suitable for patients over 18 years old with stable myopia degree. Patients with stable development of myopia degree for more than two years, and the annual increase of myopia degree does not exceed 50 degrees. If the degree is unstable, surgical treatment may affect the treatment effect, and even myopia rebound may occur.

If the patient is under 18 years old or the myopia degree increases too fast, surgery should not be taken. Patients in this situation can usually correct their vision by wearing glasses.
