Long-term high-intensity eye use and severe lack of sleep will overwhelm the eyes, and after a vacation, the eyes may appear dry, swollen and painful, and vision loss. So, how to deal with the "post-holiday syndrome" of the eyes and welcome the new year with a new comfortable and healthy state? Post-holiday syndrome
Xie Xiuli of Aier Ophthalmology Department affiliated to Wuhan University popularized science today
Eat a balanced diet
Adjusting your diet can help your stomach and intestines get through post-holiday syndrome as soon as possible, and your eyes can also benefit a lot from "food supplements". Advocating the "Mediterranean diet", rich in vegetables, fruits, fish and shrimp, high protein, rich in vitamins and unsaturated fatty acids that are beneficial to the eyes, can protect the eyes and delay the occurrence and development of eye diseases such as cataract, vitreous opacity and macular degeneration. It is worth mentioning that green tea is a good antioxidant**, which inhibits oxidative damage to the eyes.
Exercise moderately
Exercise can produce happy "dopamine" that eliminates fatigue and releases stressFor example, it is of positive significance to reduce the risk of cataracts, reduce retinal optic neuropathy, and delay the progression of myopia.
Hydrate
According to the Expert Consensus on Lifestyle-Related Dry Eye published in 2022, the environment is also one of the best for dry eye. Staying in an air-conditioned room for a long time can induce dry eye syndrome due to changes in ambient humidity, especially during the holiday season, when friends and family compete at the table to exchange skills and feelings, fatigue and dry eyes will occur. If you want to prevent and improve dry eye syndrome, you should drink more water, drink less alcohol, be equipped with a humidifier, or apply a warm compress to your eyes to relieve discomfort.
Take reasonable rest
The impact of sleep on health is comprehensive, and adequate sleep is essential to keep your eyes healthy. The prevalence of dry eye is high in patients who sleep less than 5 hours per day, and increases with reduced sleep duration in very short sleep duration (less than 4 hours).
Use your eyes wisely
Office workers work in front of the computer for a long time, and use their eyes very frequently, which is prone to eye fatigue and myopia. Reasonable control of eye time, daily office and look at the computer, continuous operation for 1 hour as much as possible to rest 5 10 minutes, you can use to get up and walk, and look at objects 5 meters away, it is best to do eye exercises. Second, adjust the position of the monitor or the height of the chair so that the screen is 15 degrees below eye level; Indirect lighting is used in the surrounding environment to reduce the contrast between the brightness of the screen and the background, and a protective screen can also be applied.
Apply a warm compress appropriately
In general, dry eyes caused by insufficient tear oil production can be relieved by applying warm compresses. It should be noted that if you experience dryness after prolonged use, a cold compress is more suitable. In addition, the temperature of the hot compress should also be noted, preferably at 40°-45°, and overheated water should not be used.
Aier Eye Hospital affiliated to Wuhan UniversityDirector Xie Xiuli reminded of the New YearDue to internal and external factors, people's vision is often changing, especially in children and adolescents. Timely monitoring of changes in visual acuity can provide reference and basis for early intervention of myopia and other eye problems. In addition,The early symptoms of some eye diseases are not obvious, so a routine eye examination is necessaryThis is the only way to minimise the risk of certain serious eye diseases and reduce the adverse effects on life.
Xie Xiuli, director of Wuhan Aier Ophthalmology, said that from the perspective of ophthalmologists, friends who need to sit for a long time should be careful, because in case of weather changes, the aqueous humor circulation and retinal veins of the eyes are very fragile, and it is easy to form blockages and similar blood clots.
The doctor reminds you to be active when you sit in a car or plane for a long time, and you should also be careful when you work for a long time! Recently, the reporter learned from a number of medical institutions that on the way back to work after the recent Spring Festival holiday, there were many patients with acute pulmonary embolism caused by long-term car sitting, and three people unfortunately died, and the continuous driving time was 20 to 30 hours. Doctors point out that this disease is often referred to as "economy class syndrome", and pulmonary embolism is characterized by high morbidity, high disability and high mortality, and the emphasis is on prevention. If you sit in a car or plane for a long time, it is recommended to move at least once in half an hour, properly massage your calves, eyes and other body parts, and drink as much water as possible. Once you have chest tightness, shortness of breath and uncomfortable symptoms, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible.
