The safety of laser correction surgery is related to the doctor's operating experience and equipment. Surgery is not without risks, mainly to avoid two kinds of postoperative complications. Any corneal surgery with a wound will have a chance of infection. Some sequelae of myopia surgery are that the wound is exposed to the air after corneal recovery, which will cause inflammation and infection if you don't pay attention to hygiene.
Treating myopia is to flatten the cornea, but the peaceful cornea will be squeezed by intraocular pressure, which will make the cornea protrude forward. This kind of pressure is not felt by people, but the consequence will aggravate myopia and even produce irreversible astigmatism, instead of treating myopia.
First, the sequelae of myopia surgery, some of which were not carefully screened out by the hospital before operation.
Second, although qualified patients were screened out, the scale of surgery was not appropriate when doctors operated. For example, to maintain a certain corneal thickness, but some doctors want to completely correct the vision of patients with high myopia, and cutting the cornea too thin will lead to adverse consequences.
