Zhuzhou News Network November 1 (Correspondent Guo Yihong Xie Wen) "I insisted on ordering eye drops for more than half a year, but not only did it have no effect, but it became increasingly difficult to see clearly!" Grandma Liu, 62 years old this year, was diagnosed with cataract 5 years ago, but it did not affect her life at that time and had not been treated. Until this year, Grandma Liu found that her vision was becoming more and more blurred. She guessed that it might be because of cataracts. By chance, Grandma Liu heard from a friend that eye drops could treat cataracts, so she hurried to the pharmacy and bought a few boxes. Unexpectedly, it still had no effect after using it for half a year.

"I insisted on ordering eye drops for half a year. Not only did it not work, but it became increasingly difficult to see clearly. I often bumped the road several times because I couldn't see clearly, which had seriously affected my daily life."
Only when I came to the hospital for examination can I see the words clearly
Because Grandma Liu's wife and son were not around, I knew that the current situation could no longer be delayed, so Grandma Liu asked the neighbors to help her and took her to Zhuzhou Renhe Eye Hospital for treatment.
After listening to Grandma Liu's words, the ophthalmologist said seriously that there is currently no eye drop or medicine that can cure cataracts, and surgery is the only effective medical method to treat cataracts.
After preoperative examination, Grandma Liu suffered from senile cataracts in both eyes, with the right eye vision of 0.04, and the left eye only has a light sensation of only the incision index of 10CM, and is almost blind.

In order to do its best to preserve Grandma Liu's remaining vision, after sufficient communication and preoperative preparation, Director Guo Zhuang of the ophthalmology department led a team of ophthalmology experts to successfully perform "phacoemulsified cataract surgery + artificial lens implantation" on Grandma Liu's eyes, and the operation was very successful. When
was discharged from the hospital, Grandma Liu's vision returned to 0.3, and she expressed her sincere gratitude to the ophthalmologist and all medical staff. "I hope everyone learns my lesson and don't believe those unreliable rumors anymore. Those eye drops not only did not cure my eyes, but also waste money in vain. Fortunately, when I met this hospital, thanks to Director Guo and others, I don't have to worry about my daily life in the future."

Cataract is a blind eye disease
Surgery treatment is the only effective method at present
Guo Zhuang said that many people have natural fear of surgery. As a blind eye disease, cataracts, as a blinding disease, are not achieved overnight, but a gradual process. Therefore, some elderly people feel that their vision still exists at this time and there is no need for surgery. This is a common misunderstanding.
Here, Guo Zhuang reminds again: Cataract patients should not use eye drops at will. They must go to a regular ophthalmic hospital for professional examinations in time, so that cataracts can be treated faster and more effectively, so as to avoid delaying treatment time due to their abuse of eye drops, resulting in irreparable damage to eye health. Patients and their families are advised to believe in medicine and not to use medicine blindly, and believe that surgery is the only effective medical method for cataract treatment at present.
