Current myopic surgery procedures are divided into two main categories
One is laser myopic surgery, and the current mainstream laser myopic surgery is full femtosecond laser myopic surgery. It eliminates the need for a corneal flap and is more minimally invasive than other laser myopia surgeries, while providing a more comfortable experience, shorter surgery time and faster recovery.
The other category is ICL implantation, which can be understood as the implantation of a special contact lens in the eye, suitable for myopic patients with thin corneas and high myopia. It does not require cutting the cornea and is reversible.
