Suffering from myopia + astigmatism, can I "take the glasses off to the ground"?

"I can't tell it's 11 or 1 on the traffic light. I was almost red-light-running many times." It may be difficult to imagine such a scene for myopic patients without astigmatism, but this is common for astigmatic patients.?

Astigmatism, myopia, and hyperopia are all called ametropia. When the refractive power of the refraction system varies in different directions and the light entering the eye cannot be focused into a focus, the astigmatism occurs. Most astigmatism is geneogenous, which may be related to the asymmetric development of fetal eyeballs caused by diets, organic pesticides or harmful gases in pregnant women.?

Generally speaking, astigmatism can be divided into four categories: mild, moderate, severe and high according to the astigmatic degree. Among them, mild refers to the astigmatism with less than -1.00 diopters; the moderate ranges from -1.00 to -2.00 diopters; The severe from -2.00 to -3.00 diopters; while the high is higher than -3.00 diopters.?

For astigmatic patients, impaired vision is taken as the most common clinical manifestation. People with mild astigmatism usually have normal visual acuity, while those with moderate and high astigmatism have poor hyperopia and myopia. One with pure astigmatism would suffer from slight decreased vision, while those of the compound and mixed astigmatism would undergo obvious hypopsia, and even suffer from amblyopia in case of poor correction.?

Xu, 9-year old, is a patient with mixed astigmatism, and is nearsighted with -1.50 diopters accompanied by astigmatism in -2.00 diopters in her right eye, while -1.75 diopters accompanied by astigmatism in -2.25 diopters in her left eye. Although she is slightly nearsighted, it is difficult for Xu to get suitable glasses due to mixed astigmatism.?

Her mother was very worried about her visual acuity and was afraid that she could not see clearly for a long time and then cause amblyopia due to mixed astigmatism. After learning about the advantages of MCT technology for the prevention and control of myopia in children, Xu's mother took her to the ophthalmology clinic for orthokeratology lens.?

After careful ophthalmic examination, Xu got a pair of digital MCT orthokeratology lens in the clinic (MCT obtained the patent certificate of "a kind of orthokeratology lens with ultra-high or ultra-low corneal K value"). After wearing MCT orthokeratology lens, Xu can see the world clearly with good visual effects.?

The doctor told Xu that the MCT orthokeratology lens can be worn at night and taken out at morning to reshape the elastic cornea gently and painlessly, which makes the central part of the cornea become flat, thus achieving the purpose of changing the refractive state of myopia and restoring clear eyesight. While the MCT patent technology makes for an optical zone with a big enough diameter in orthokeratology lens, creating a more completed and precise peripheral defocus effect zone, which enhances the capacity of orthokeratology lens in controlling myopia.?

In addition, MCT orthokeratology lens completely replaces the traditional trial evaluation technology with full digital technology and personalized lenses. It innovatively achieves trial-free, making the fitting process quite comfortable. Nowadays, as epidemic prevention and control becomes normal, it can effectively avoid the risk of cross infection and greatly reduce the complications, making the fitting safe and efficient.?

For young myopic patients like Xu, early control of myopia and astigmatism means that the blinding threat of pathological myopia complications can be kept away as far as possible in the future. In the face of myopia + astigmatism, MCT can not only "take the glasses off to the ground", but also scientifically control the development of myopia and protect the eyesight of myopic patients.?
