Not only cervical spondylosis can cause nausea and vomiting, this eye disease can also!

Many patients with cervical spondylosis know that severe cervical spondylosis may cause symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, and vomiting, but did you know that eye diseases can also cause the above symptoms?

Li Fuhua, director of Tianjin University Aier Eye Hospital, said that glaucoma, especially acute angle-closure glaucoma, is often accompanied by severe headaches, nausea, vomiting, etc. Some people ignore the eye symptoms and may mistake them for acute gastroenteritis or spondylosis. If acute angle-closure glaucoma is delayed in treatment, it will cause irreversible damage to the optic nerve and visual function, and eventually lead to blindness. If there are any physical problems, comprehensive considerations must be made and treatment should not be delayed .

Some chronic angle-closure glaucoma and open-angle glaucoma are often hidden and are called "thieves of vision". They occasionally have symptoms such as blurred vision and halo vision. Because the symptoms are sometimes not obvious, many patients miss the opportunity for treatment.

How to prevent glaucoma?

The vision damage caused by glaucoma is usually irreversible. People with a family history of glaucoma, diabetes, hypertension, and high myopia are all at high risk of glaucoma. As long as early detection, diagnosis and treatment are achieved, the condition of most glaucoma patients can be effectively controlled, and the patients' existing vision can be retained to the greatest extent.

For glaucoma patients, it is important to pay attention to proper rest, exercise, and combine work and rest.

Glaucoma patients must keep a calm mind and a good mood at home.

Maintain good living habits, do not smoke, drink, stay up late, or drink a lot of water at one time.

Avoid using your eyes in a dark environment for a long time, get adequate rest, and maintain sufficient light when using your eyes to avoid glaucoma attacks caused by dilated pupils in a dark environment.
