If you tear your eyes a lot in winter, this eye disease may be the cause!

Our eyes are one of the most delicate organs in the body. Any small abnormality will cause us to be nervous. For example, symptoms such as repeated tearing and secretion are not small problems. They may indicate that the tear duct is "sick". For tear duct problems in adults, surgery is generally used to treat them.

Dr. Zhang Jiang, director of the Lacrimal Duct Department at the Aier Eye Hospital affiliated to Wuhan University, said that because some lacrimal duct diseases are difficult to treat and have a long recovery process, as well as large individual differences among patients and different levels of cooperation after surgery, many patients often find it difficult to achieve an ideal prognosis.

So, is there any effective treatment for this part of "refractory tear duct disease"? Let's listen to the professional explanation of Dr. Zhang Jiang, director of the tear duct department of Aier Eye Hospital affiliated to Wuhan University ~

Director Zhang Jiang said that the prognosis of tear duct catheterization or tear duct modification surgery is poor, and the patient still tears after the first-stage surgery due to tear duct rupture caused by eye trauma are collectively referred to as refractory tear duct diseases. These patients usually have symptoms such as tear duct scars and tear duct adhesions.

For this type of situation, we usually perform "tear duct opening surgery" to carry out targeted repair of the damaged parts of the tear duct under nasal endoscopy. Generally speaking, this can solve the patient's problem of long-term tearing.

It is important to note that our tear ducts have a very delicate system structure and are very fragile. There is little space for surgical operations and repairs in the tear ducts, and it is very difficult. Therefore, if you have tear duct problems in your life, such as tears in the wind, tears for unknown reasons, excessive secretions in the inner corners of the eyes and repeated inflammation, especially after eye trauma, you must go to a professional ophthalmology hospital as soon as possible for detailed examinations and targeted treatment.
