Correctly relieve dry eyes, 80% of people do it wrong

I have dry eyes, a minor problem, but I'm too lazy to go to the hospital. I either endure it myself or buy some eye drops. Some people even go to Japan to buy eye drops, but the results are not so worrying.

Eye drops are a great helper for ophthalmologists if used properly, but improper use can aggravate symptoms, lead to drug dependence, and even induce glaucoma. When choosing eye drops for dry eyes, pay attention to the following tips:

Do not buy eye drops without authorization. Many eye drops on the market contain preservatives and should be used under the guidance of an ophthalmologist. Artificial tear eye drops that do not contain preservatives and moisturize the eyes are recommended.

Unless there are special circumstances, it is not advisable to use eye drops for a long time or to become overly dependent on them. Some people take eye drops as a daily routine. In the absence of knowledge about hormone eye drops, it is easy to develop drug dependence and aggravate dry eye symptoms. Patients with eye inflammation need to use eye drops under the guidance and monitoring of a doctor and stop taking the medicine after the symptoms disappear.

Before using eye drops, please read the instructions carefully to understand the usage, dosage, expiration date and contraindications, etc. Most eye drops become ineffective one month after opening the bottle and cannot be used after the expiration date.

After understanding eye drops, it is also important to develop healthy eye habits and lifestyle habits. This two-pronged approach can achieve twice the result with half the effort in relieving dry eyes.

1. People who wear contact lenses frequently should stop wearing them or not wear them at all.

2. Don't stare at the electronic screen for a long time. Give your eyes a rest every hour or so, close your eyes or look into the distance, or take the opportunity to move around to relax your eyes.

3. If your eyes are sore, swollen and dry, you can use a hot towel to compress them, morning and evening, to promote tear secretion.

4. If the indoor air is dry, you can place a humidifier to adjust the air humidity and slow down water evaporation.

5. Don't play with your phone when the lights are off, especially don't play with your phone while lying in bed before going to bed. In the long run, it will cause many harms.

If dry eye syndrome does not improve for a long time after following the above methods, you should go to a specialist hospital for examination and seek help from an ophthalmologist in time.

For stubborn dry eyes and severe dry eyes, different symptomatic treatments can be adopted according to different causes:

Aqueous deficiency dry eyes : Artificial tear eye drops, wet chamber mirror, punctum embolization, etc. can be used to increase the tears in the eyes and reduce tear loss.

Oil-deficiency type dry eyes : Dry eye SPA therapy, IPL intense pulsed light therapy, etc. can be used to activate the function of the meibomian glands and promote tear secretion.

Mixed dry eyes : If it is a mixed type with a lack of tear and oil secretion, comprehensive treatment will be given based on the above two types.

Other dry eye syndromes : In addition to the above treatment options, if dry eye is caused by systemic diseases, the primary disease should be treated in collaboration with the corresponding specialists.

Severe and stubborn dry eyes require long-term treatment. Symptoms can be gradually alleviated, but complete recovery is not achieved overnight. It is only considered cured when the cause is eliminated and a healthy tear film is formed.

Guangrun OPT intense pulsed light treatment for dry eyes has the characteristics of efficient and fast phototherapy for dry eyes, deep mite removal and strong sterilization. It is mainly aimed at people with meibomian gland dysfunction, inflammation or Demodex infection.

The process of photorejuvenation treatment is a treatment program that takes intense pulsed light as the core, combined with atomization, meibomian gland massage, cold compress, etc., which uses intense pulsed light waves to deeply heat the meibomian glands through the skin, dissolve old and stubborn meibum, and promote the discharge of meibum through massage, so as to dredge the meibomian glands and relieve dry eyes. At the same time, the instantaneous high temperature generated by intense pulsed light can help kill mites living in the eyelash follicles and meibomian gland openings, achieving a better mite removal effect.
