China Jiangsu Net, May 30, Xuzhou News Recently, 86-year-old Uncle Wu, accompanied by his daughter, went to the ophthalmology department of Xuzhou Ruibo Hospital , gave a pennant with “Superior Medical Skills and Charity” to the medical staff of the ophthalmology department of Ruibo Hospital, thanking them for their superb medical skills and caring and meticulous service, and cured the trichiasis and cataracts that had plagued the father and daughter for many years.
Trichiasis “minor problem” troubled Uncle Wu
Uncle Wu, who lives in Liuxinxinqiao, is 86 years old this year. His left eye has been troubled by trichiasis for a long time. Symptoms of tolerance.
Although itching eyes is not a big problem, it has a great impact on Uncle Wu’s later life. I feel distressed that Uncle Wu’s daughter brought Uncle Wu to the ophthalmology department of Ruibo Hospital. After careful examination by the director of the ophthalmology department, Uncle Wu was diagnosed with “trichiasis in the left eye” and “senile cataract in the right eye”, both of which required surgical treatment.
“Trichiasis” is popularized by ophthalmologists.
The direction of eyelashes changes, grows toward the eyeball, and rubs against the surface of the cornea and conjunctiva, which is medically called trichiasis. Trichiasis can cause foreign body sensation, symptoms such as pain, photophobia, and tearing, which can cause patients to be unable to open their eyes, and even cause blindness in severe cases.
As the age increases, the eye muscles of the elderly relax, and trichiasis is prone to occur. Patients with a large number of trichiasis accompanied by entropion should go to the ophthalmology department of the hospital for surgical treatment in time. Some patients do not go to the hospital until they can’t see anything clearly, and at this time they often miss the most suitable time for treatment.
The father and daughter operated at the same time
It is understood that in the village where Uncle Wu lives, many elderly people are suffering from cataracts. After receiving Guangming, everyone’s high evaluation and trust in Ruibo Hospital made Uncle Wu’s daughter unable to hold back her desire for high visual quality.
It turns out that the 68-year-old Ms. Wu’s vision has also been blurred for some time. This time her father has an operation. She hopes that she can have the operation together to get rid of the trouble of her being unable to see clearly. The final examination results showed that she also suffered from senile cataract. The visual acuity in the left eye was 0.1 before the operation, and the visual acuity in the right eye was only 0.05. The father and daughter decided to operate at the same time.
Farewell to cataracts completely
The success of my father’s trichiasis surgery and the success of my daughter’s right eye cataract surgery made the father and daughter full of hope. Uncle Wu’s right eye had blurred vision about a year ago, which was progressively worsening, and his vision gradually became blurred, which made the old man miserable. But the success of her daughter’s cataract surgery gave Uncle Wu confidence, and he took the initiative to request to regain the light through the operation with his daughter.
After judging Uncle Wu’s eye condition and living habits, Director Zhang Jin formulated a personalized cataract surgery treatment plan for him.
Because Uncle Wu is an elderly person, in order to ensure the quality of the operation and reduce the risk during the operation, Director Zhang Jin conducted a comprehensive preoperative examination for Uncle Wu, excluding the possibility that the elderly may suffer from other diseases of the fundus. Afterwards, the father and daughter successfully performed phacoemulsification cataract extraction + intraocular lens implantation respectively. Uncle Wu’s right eye and daughter’s left eye both recovered from 0.1 before surgery to 0.6.
Uncle Wu and his daughter, who suffered from cataracts for a long time, have clear vision again, and their quality of life has also been greatly improved. improve. So I made a special trip to Ruibo Hospital and sent a pennant to thank the medical staff and doctors who provided meticulous service to him.
A pennant and a thank you convey not only the gratitude of the patients, but also the affirmation and trust of the patients for the hard work and achievements of the medical workers, and also the recognition of the medical workers in their daily work. a spur. In the future work, the ophthalmic medical staff of Ruibo Hospital will continue to be patient-centered, continuously improve the medical level, improve the service quality, and make patients and relatives more assured.
