Yes! And Here’s What You Need to Know.
If you’ve been told you have dry eyes, you might assume vision correction surgery is off the table. But the truth is, yes! You can have vision correction with dry eyes, and modern EuroEyes technology is making it safer and more effective than ever.
Dry eye syndrome is one of the most common conditions eye surgeons see especially in people who already wear contact lenses or spend long hours on digital devices. And while it used to be a reason to delay or avoid laser eye surgery, today’s advanced diagnostic tools and tailored treatments allow specialists to safely treat many patients with dry eyes.
The key? Understanding the cause and severity of your dry eyes and choosing the right procedure for your unique eye health.

为什么干眼症对视力矫正很重要？
干眼症是指眼睛泪液分泌不足或泪液蒸发过快。这会导致以下症状
- 粗犷
- 烧灼感或刺痛感
- 视力模糊或波动
- 光敏感性
- 眼睛疲劳
These symptoms can become more noticeable after vision correction surgery if not addressed properly. That’s because procedures like LASIK or PRK involve the cornea and your tear film plays a vital role in both protecting the eye and supporting healing. If your eyes are already dry, they may struggle to heal efficiently, and vision outcomes could be temporarily affected.
但好消息是：干眼症并不会自动剥夺您的资格。关键是在进行治疗之前，要进行仔细筛查和个性化治疗。
手术前治疗干眼症
Most leading clinics won’t perform laser surgery on dry eyes that are inflamed or unstable but they will help treat the condition first. This preparation phase is a powerful part of modern vision correction planning.
常见的术前治疗包括
- (不含防腐剂的人工泪液）
- 减少刺激的消炎眼药水
- 补充奥米加-3，改善泪液油层
- 通过阻挡泪液排出来保持湿度的穿孔塞
- 减少睑板腺功能障碍的眼睑卫生程序
- 针对较严重干眼症的IPL（强脉冲光）疗法
With the right care plan, most patients see an improvement in symptoms within weeks, making them suitable for laser or lens-based procedures shortly after.
干眼症患者的最佳视力矫正方案
并非所有视力矫正手术对眼睛的影响都是一样的。如果您有干眼症，外科医生可能会建议您选择以下其中一种方法：
SMILE（小切口扁桃体摘除术）
SMILE 是一种微创激光手术，采用微小切口，与 LASIK 相比，能保留更多的角膜神经。因此，术后出现干眼症状的几率较低，通常是易干眼症患者的理想选择。
晶状体置换手术（RLE）--包括 ICL 替代手术
对于老年患者或有老花眼或白内障早期症状的患者来说，晶状体置换手术可能是更好的选择。它不会直接影响角膜，这意味着干眼症状不易恶化。
何时需要等待？
在某些情况下，需要先稳定干眼症，然后再进行手术。在以下情况下，您可能会被要求推迟手术
- 您的泪膜极不稳定
- 有活动性炎症或角膜损伤的迹象
- 您正在使用的隐形眼镜会刺激眼睛
- 您的干眼症与需要治疗的全身性疾病（如自身免疫性疾病）有关。
But don’t worry, this doesn’t mean no. It just means not yet. Many patients return weeks or months later with much healthier eyes and go on to achieve outstanding results.
Do You Have Options And Support?
Dry eyes are common and they don’t have to stand in the way of life-changing vision correction. With proper assessment, expert care, and a personalised approach, many people with dry eyes go on to achieve excellent surgical outcomes.
If you’ve been told you’re not a candidate in the past or if you’re unsure whether dry eyes will affect your options, book a consultation with a EuroEyes specialist who understands both conditions. The technology has evolved, and so has the approach.
清晰、舒适的视觉仍然触手可及。
