Handheld Spring City News Recently, only Auntie Zhong, a cataract patient who knows the outside world with her ears and hands, successfully underwent cataract surgery at Kunming Aier Eye Hospital and regained her sight.

Aunt Zhong, who is 72 years old this year, has a cheerful personality. When her eyesight was good two years ago, she was still a square dance enthusiast. “At that time, no one else could see it. In fact, my eyes suffered a lot.” When she was a child, Aunt Zhong lost all her vision in her left eye due to an accident, and left a corneal leukoplakia in her right eye. In adulthood, her right eye also developed high myopia. “More than 2 years ago, my vision in my right eye decreased significantly, and I went to the hospital to find out that I had a cataract. Only my right eye can see, and the eye condition is still complicated. I have searched many places for help, but no doctor is willing to operate on me.”

Since then, as the cataract became more and more serious, Aunt Zhong was almost “blind” – “watching” TV by listening, walking by “touching” ”, relying on “feeding” to eat, and all daily life needs to be taken care of by an older wife. “My mother was worried about us, she became depressed, and became less and less like to talk.” Seeing her mother’s situation, Aunt Zhong’s daughter was very anxious. After inquiring from various sources, she finally brought her mother to Kunming Aier Eye Clinic Hospital.

“When I see the patient, I can clearly feel that she is very eager for light. In addition, the accepted treatment for cataracts is surgery, and if there is no effective treatment for a long time, the disease may continue to develop, secondary Glaucoma and other diseases have changed from reversible blindness to irreversible blindness,” said Yang Jianyu, director of the Cataract and Glaucoma Department of Kunming Aier Eye Hospital. Finally, based on the patient’s examination results and the patient’s wishes, Yang Jianyu formulated a surgical plan and successfully performed the surgery.

“When my mother came to the hospital for an examination, I helped her in. After the operation, she could walk by herself, and she could see the scenery outside the window, and the whole person returned to the cheerful state before.” The daughter said that they are very grateful to the doctors for their kindness and kindness, which has brought the whole family back to life.
