1. Why is the cold weather easily causing glaucoma?
1. Cold temperature
The temperature drops sharply.The pupils of patients with glaucoma are easy to enlarge, and the exit of the housing water -the corner of the housing suddenly closed, causing the housing water to be blocked, causing the flooding water to fill up and the increase in eye pressure, resulting in a sudden attack of glaucoma.
2. Large temperature difference between the outside of the house
Cold weather, especially in winter, cold outside the house, inside the house, the house in the housewarm.When people go out, a strong temperature change will affect the regulatory center of the body temperature. The interference of the plant nerves will cause intraocular pressure fluctuations, and then induces acute episodes of glaucoma.
3. Drink water
As the weather is getting colder, the air becomes more dry and dryAs a result, many people are prone to dry mouth.Because a large amount of water is absorbed by the human body, the water in the eyes will increase. Normal people can adjust the metabolism by accelerating the metabolism and excrete excess water. Due to the dysfunction of the curtains, the flooding water is abnormal, which causes the intraocular pressure to pressure the eye.Rising, resulting in glaucoma attacks.
2. Early symptoms of glaucoma are easily ignored
"Many patients with glaucoma have reached the middle and late stages, the optic nerve injury has been significantly reduced, and the field of vision has narrowed obviously"Deputy Dean Ye Changhua introduced that this is due to the lack of understanding of the knowledge of glaucoma prevention and control.
In the period before the acute attack, most patients have some threatened symptoms."These symptoms have eased or disappeared after sleeping or sleeping, and they are often ignored. Some patients think that they have suffered from colds and gastroenteritis. They did not attract attention and delayed the opportunity to seek medical treatment." Vice Dean Ye Changhua said.
Third, tired and emotional is also easy to induce
Deputy Dean Ye Changhua said that there are many of the glaucoma patients who have recently come to the hospital for treatmentOne of the patients with emotional excitement impressed him."The old lady has a headache, her eyes are red, swollen, tears, and only the front index of the eyes remains. The intraocular pressure exceeds 60mmHg. It is a typical acute corner -closing glaucoma patient."
The cause,Actually quarreling with his wife.A few days ago, she was hygienic. She suspected that her wife did not help and chaos, so she quarreled. As a result, her eyes pain, headache, and vomiting were sent to the hospital by her family.
