In the daily work received a lot of patients with eye fatigue to consult, how to slow down. In recent years, with the change of modern people's life style and work style, more and more people need to use computers in their work and life. Many people face computers and mobile phones for more than ten hours every day. For those who use video terminals for a long time, more than half of them will show some symptoms of video terminal syndrome more or less. Foreign studies show that the probability of eye symptoms is the highest, up to 72.1%. The symptoms included redness, hyperemia, dryness, foreign body sensation and secretion. At this time, we usually choose eye drops to relieve eye fatigue. Can we choose eye drops at will?
Patients often go to the hospital for treatment, and doctors often prescribe anti eyestrain eye drops, such as compound urinary viamine, digitalis, etc; Eye drops to improve dry eyes, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, sodium hyaluronate, polyvinyl alcohol, etc; If the patient's conjunctiva is congested and has red blood, the doctor will prescribe vasoconstrictors to alleviate the symptoms, such as hydroxymetazoline eye drops, feniramine and naphazoline eye drops. The patient's symptoms can be controlled after medication, and these drugs are often used as spare parts at any time. Here, pharmacists remind you that eye drops should not be used frequently and should be given 3-4 times a day according to the doctor's advice.
1. Most of the eye drops in ordinary packaging are multi dose packaging, with a capacity of 5-10ml. Manufacturers often add micro antibacterial agents according to the provisions of the Pharmacopoeia of the people's Republic of China to ensure the quality of the drugs, and use the drugs according to the doctor's orders or instructions. The effect of antibacterial agents on the eyes is very weak, Antibacterial agents in eye drops can damage the ocular surface, cause damage to normal tear film, corneal epithelial cells, damage goblet cells, and cause dry eye.
2. Many artificial tears for the treatment of dry eye have appeared single dose packaging. Some patients must think that drugs without preservatives can be used several times a day. Pharmacists tell you that this view is also wrong, because frequent medication will completely wash away the normal tear film, accelerate the evaporation of tears, thus aggravating the symptoms of dry eye.
3. Patients with red eyes, red blood, the use of eye drops containing vasoconstrictor, will receive immediate effect, therefore, become the patient's side standing medicine, drop at any time. As we all know, vasoconstrictors are composed of hydroxymetazoline, naphazoline, etc. the local adverse reactions are mydriasis and elevated intraocular pressure. Long term use can produce systemic reactions, such as hypertension, arrhythmia, hyperglycemia, etc. Its instruction manual also clearly stipulates that it is forbidden for patients with angle closure glaucoma.
Therefore, eye drops should not be used frequently, and must be used according to the doctor's advice or pharmacist's advice. In order to prevent video terminal syndrome, you can wear anti blue light glasses to protect your eyes, but when choosing anti blue light glasses, you must choose the authoritative detection mark. The lenses are generally light yellow, and the blue light barrier rate of glasses is more than 97%.
In life, we should pay attention to proper rest, do eye exercises, look far, eat more vegetables, supplement lutein, compound vitamins and zeaxanthin to strengthen the antioxidant capacity of eyes.
