Vol 2 Chapter 2098: Dawn of myopia

Facing the doubtful eyes of everyone, Zhang Bin explained with a smile.
"Now that we have a full understanding of the causes of myopia, can we treat it according to its pathogenesis?
We know that light entering the eye is not focused on the retina, which is called a refractive error. When the point of focus is in front of the retina this is called nearsightedness, and if it is focused beyond the retina, it is called farsightedness. There are also strabismus, astigmatism and other diseases.
The reason for these diseases is that our eyeballs are deformed, causing the original accurate focus to be deviated.
There are many causes of refractive error, among which myopia is the most common. Regarding the treatment of myopia, we have formed a very complete technical system.
For example, the use of optical lenses, that is, the glasses we wear, adjusts the focal length of the light entering the eye by correcting the light, so that it can accurately project on the retina, so that we can see objects clearly.
If you don't like to treat such glasses as ugly and inconvenient, you can wear some contact lenses, which are what we usually call contact lenses. This type of contact lens can stay in the glasses and stick to the cornea, which is usually invisible and can meet the needs of some beauty lovers. And it is more convenient to wear and use some scientific instruments. Even some orthokeratology lenses have the effect of relieving the growth of myopia.
If you don't like wearing glasses, you can also do some corrective surgery. At present, this type of vision correction surgery has been carried out for decades, and it has been very reliable in terms of technology and safety.
Usually this type of myopia correction surgery is divided into two methods: laser femtosecond cutting and lens implantation. Laser femtosecond cutting is actually cutting the cornea and shaping the cornea of ​​the eye so that the light entering the eye can be accurately focused on the retina.
Of course, this type of surgery also has certain limitations. For example, the cornea of ​​some myopic patients is relatively thin, which is not suitable for this type of laser femtosecond cutting surgery. So scientists have developed a lens implantation surgery on this basis. Compared with corneal incision surgery, vigilant implant correction surgery is safer and reversible.
In simple terms, this type of surgery involves implanting a lens adapted to the patient's power under the patient's cornea, which is equivalent to inserting a small contact lens into the eye. In this way, there is no need to cut the cornea, and there is no need to worry about some dry eye syndrome and infection after some laser femtosecond surgery.
In addition, the implanted lens can be replaced in time according to the increase of the patient's degree, which is an effect that some laser femtosecond cutting operations cannot achieve. "
Speaking of this, Zhang Bin paused for a moment, glanced at the crowd, and then changed his tone and continued: "But, no matter what method, they can't cure myopia, it can only be said that these technologies are used to make myopic patients see Clear objects to achieve a vision correction purpose.
But in fact, myopia has always existed and has been developing. At present, there is no way to completely cure myopia.
Although in recent years, with the continuous development of medicine, some researchers have begun to try some drugs to treat myopia, and have achieved some results, but they have not been recognized by most doctors and patients. In general, it is still in the experimental stage. "
"After talking so much, we have come to understand that the fundamental of the complete treatment of myopia is how to restore our deformed eyeballs, which can be said to be a topic that everyone is studying.
But we all know how hard it is to restore an organ that has been damaged and deformed. The current level of medicine can only treat and cure the disease, but it is difficult to restore the organs and tissues that have been infected and destroyed by the disease.
The eye is the same, and it is the most fragile organ in our body, so it is very difficult to treat. In addition, the current vision correction technology is relatively mature, so there are not many people who are willing to continue to do research on this area.
But in our opinion, just because it is difficult, the barrier to entry is relatively high. In addition, there are relatively few studies at present, so this is precisely our opportunity.
If we can overcome this problem and develop a more mature and commercially viable myopia cure technology, then we will be able to gain a huge medical commercial market.
Let's not talk about the world, let's talk about the domestic market, we can have a huge market of 600 million people. How about there is a commodity that can occupy a huge market of 600 million people in China at once. "
After listening to Zhang Bin's words, everyone at the scene also started to discuss, obviously they were taken aback by the big cake drawn by Zhang Bin. I am even more interested in this technology, especially some employees with glasses and shortsightedness, their eyes are even more fiery and excited.
If this technology is developed and applied, will they have the advantage of prioritizing appointments and queuing for use as insiders of the company?
"I think you are not suitable for scientific research. You can be in charge of market operations." Wu Hao smiled at Zhang Bin and joked, and then said, "Don't paint the big cake anymore, let's talk about the technology itself."
Hearing Wu Hao's words~EbookFREE.me~ Zhang Bin nodded with a smile and said, "Our scientific research team has studied hundreds of pairs of eyes and generated a very detailed digital biological model.
Through this set of digital biological models and artificial intelligence algorithms, we can simulate and calculate the generation, development and evolution of myopia in our eyes.
Then, we convert some treatment methods into algorithm input, and then perform calculations to see the effect on the deformed myopic eyes, which is what we call curative effect, and focus on the changes in the eyes and surrounding areas.
Through calculation, we found that the eye muscles in the parts around our eyes actually play a very important role in the movement and changes of the eyeball.
During our computational simulation process, we found that a large part of the cause of myopia is due to overuse of the eye, and the eye muscles have not been adequately rested and have been in the process of hyperemia and tension. Over time, the eye muscles are damaged and relaxed.
At the same time, excessive eye fatigue, eye congestion and other reasons will cause the intraocular pressure to be too high. In addition, the eye muscles that control the fixation of the eyeball are damaged and relaxed, and the tension is reduced. Naturally, the deformation of the eyeball due to the increase of the eyeball pressure cannot be suppressed, so refractive errors are formed, resulting in myopia, hyperopia, and strabismus. , astigmatism and other diseases occur.
