Twins, why are fate so different?
My sister has been smooth sailing and successfully admitted to a university in Wuhan.
But the brother made his family worried, he couldn't take care of himself even when he went to school, and he could only go to special education school .
It's just because my brother suffered from congenital nystagmus , and his vision was extremely poor...
long journey to seek medical treatment for many years without success. My family was physically and mentally exhausted.
Listen to Xiaozhe's mother's introduction. When Xiaozhe was 6 months old, he found that he was different from other babies. His eyes were not sensitive to light, and it seemed to rely on listening to recognize external things.
In the next 18 years, Xiaozhe's mother began a long and extremely difficult journey to seek medical treatment. She went to major hospitals in Shenyang and tried various folk remedies, but his condition still did not improve.
Since Xiaozhe has normal vision like his sister, he can go to ordinary schools like his friends of the same age. He had to go to special education schools.
In addition, in daily life, I always tilt my head, my eyesight keeps shaking, and my eyesight is not particularly good. I am often ridiculed and ridiculed by others. Xiaozhe became taciturn and gradually became less fond of talking to others.
are also flesh that falls off the body, but the fate of the two brothers and sisters is different. This year, Xiaozhe's sister was admitted to a university in Wuhan. However, Xiaozhe was troubled by eye diseases and could not take care of himself normally in life.
Xiaozhe's mother saw it and was anxious in her heart, and she felt guilty, afraid that this disease would delay the child's life. She secretly made up her mind to continue looking for a doctor, no matter how much money or how much money she spent, she had to cure her son's illness.
Finally met a good doctor in Wuhan. Rekind hope to achieve results
Xiaozhe's mother heard that the medical care in Wuhan is good, so she decided to give it a try. While sending her sister to college, she took Xiaozhe from Dandong, Liaoning to Wuhan for treatment. They embarked on the road of seeking medical treatment again.
Through the introduction of kind-hearted people, they found Jin Xiaoqin, director of Egg Ophthalmology Hospital strabismus and pediatric ophthalmology. She has rich clinical experience in nystagmus correction, which has helped many children to relieve their illnesses and improve their vision.
After detailed examination, Director Jin Xiaoqin said that Xiaozhe's nystagmus can be operated, and his vision and head position will be much improved!
Looking at Director Jin's professional attitude and sincere reply, Xiaozhe's mother, who had been anxious for a long time, instantly showed a relaxed smile. She said, "When I see Director Jin, I feel like I have taken a reassurance pill, I feel relieved!" She immediately agreed to perform surgery on her son immediately.
Because Xiaozhe's eye disease is very complicated, he not only has nystagmus, but also has strabismus. Due to the long-term lack of effective intervention and treatment, vision has been low and severe amblyopia in both eyes.
For the complex condition of Xiaozhe's combination of multiple eye diseases, Director Jin Xiaoqin carefully analyzed and considered it, and designed a reasonable surgical plan for him: nystagmus + strabismus correction surgery under a microscope .
This combination surgery is very challenging for doctors' surgical skills. can avoid the risk of giving him an extra anesthesia and surgery through one-time surgery! Director Jin successfully corrected Xiaozhe's strabismus, and reduced the frequency of nystagmus, improving abnormal head position.
She said that she was really grateful to Director Jin for achieving such an effect. She never dared to dream of it.Xiaozhe was also happy to look in the mirror and said, "I can finally see things normally. It's so good, so good..."
nystagmus can be treated. The earlier the treatment, the better the effect
Director Jin Xiaoqin said: Although nystagmus is a refractory disease, with the development of medical technology, it can be intervened through surgery, and the earlier the intervention, the better the effect.
For patients with congenital nystagmus like Xiaozhe, if surgery is performed early, the degree of nystagmus can be reduced, providing children with a relatively normal visual development space, and improving vision. Children can also study and live like normal people.
Therefore, she reminded parents: patients with nystagmus will not only seriously affect their vision and hinder the development of visual function, but also due to long-term tilting of their heads and vision, it often affects abnormal development of facial and bones, causing patients to be inferior and withdrawn from the crowd.
Therefore, when finds symptoms of nystagmus or head tilting, you must go to a professional and regular ophthalmology hospital as soon as possible, otherwise it will affect the child's life.
