"The mother is frugal, kind, hardworking and optimistic. She has no time to be idle at home, but she is busy and happy with it." Aunt Peng's daughter tells us, "But since cataracts were diagnosed two years ago, her attitude towards life has changed a lot. Many times she sits alone in front of the yard and looks outside lonely."
This loneliness is not difficult to understand. Originally, Aunt Peng had super-high myopia plus astigmatism , and there was also high myopia fundus lesions . Now, with the increasingly serious cataract , it is even more difficult to take care of herself in daily life.
After going through several local hospitals in Yunnan for examination, they sighed again.
Aunt Peng's daughter said, "We went to many local hospitals. The doctor said that my mother's eyes are very complicated, and the operation is too risky and the effect is not good. The surgery is not recommended. What we can do now is to go home and use the existing vision to barely maintain a life."
When she returned home, Aunt Peng's daughter thought about it carefully and thought that her mother was still young. If she gave up treatment now, she would soon be invisible in the future, and the days ahead would be even more sad.
After inquiring from many sources, they learned from their relatives that Changsha Aier Eye Hospital located in Hunan has helped many difficult and complex cataract patients to successfully undergo surgery over the years.
The mother and daughter rekindled their hope and came to Changsha Aier Eye Hospital recently.
Dr. Tang Qiongyan, deputy director of Changsha Aier Eye Hospital and director of the cataract specialty, conducted a comprehensive examination for Aunt Peng and found that she suffered from 1300-degree ultra-high myopia and 300-degree astigmatism . He had a high myopia fundus lesions and severe cataracts, and his vision was only 0.03 left in the left and right eyes.
In response to Aunt Peng’s situation, Dr. Tang Qiongyan developed a surgical plan of “femtosecond laser-assisted cataract phacoemulsification and respiration + artificial lens implantation”.
Compared with traditional cataract surgery, femtosecond laser cataract surgery replaces the traditional scalpel with femtosecond laser technology. Under the control of the computer, the key steps such as corneal incision, annular sac tearing, and nucleus splitting that doctors need to perform in traditional phacoemulsification surgery are automated, making cataract removal safer and more accurate.
On October 22 and 24, Dr. Tang Qiongyan performed "femtosecond laser-assisted cataract phacoemulsification and artificial lens implantation" on Aunt Peng's left and right eyes respectively.
The results of the postoperative re-examination showed that the aunt's eyes recovered well and her vision improved significantly compared with before.
When the gauze was removed, "See! See again!" Aunt Peng, who saw the light again, was as excited as a child, her eyes were shining, her smile reappeared, and she suddenly became much younger.
"Angelo of Light" in the hearts of ordinary people
Director Tang Qiongyan introduced: "In clinical practice, I have been exposed to many patients with difficult cataracts like Aunt Peng, such as particularly severe hard-core cataracts, post-fundillectomy cataracts, high myopia combined with cataracts, traumatic cataracts , congenital cataracts, diabetes / glaucoma diabetic / glaucoma traumatic cataracts , congenital cataracts, diabetes / glaucoma traumatic cataracts , congenital cataracts, diabetes / glaucoma traumatic cataracts , congenital cataracts, diabetes / glaucoma traumatic cataracts 7. Patients with cataracts, as well as those with difficult cataracts such as few corneal endothelial cells, may have been transferred to multiple hospitals and still not received effective treatment. At this time, the patients' desire to restore their minds is very strong. When encountering such patients, I will do my best to help these patients overcome the disease. "
