    First, eye swelling, headache, blurred vision, especially in the dark for too long (such as angry, watching movies and television or working in a dark room), the above symptoms can appear, after rest can be relieved, this is the early symptoms of angle-closure glaucoma, also known as glaucoma small mal seizures, after many recurrences, there may be severe eye pain, headache, sharp loss of vision, accompanied by nausea, vomiting and other symptoms, sometimes can be misdiagnosed as acute gastroenteritis and cerebrovascular disease.

    Second, premature presbyopia, such as presbyopia before the age of 40 (but to distinguish it from presbyopia that appeared earlier in hyperopia), especially in women, the reading glasses change rapidly, and the glasses need to be changed frequently, which indicates that it is related to the decrease of ocular accommodation, which is directly proportional to the degree of early lesions of glaucoma.

    Third, the visual acuity gradually declines, and the vision correction of optometry glasses is not logarithmic eye chart, especially for people with high myopia, who often have headache and eye swelling after wearing moderate glasses. Due to the elongation of the sclera and the obvious decrease in elasticity of the highly myopic eye, when there is high intraocular pressure, the self-conscious symptoms are not obvious or asymptomatic, which cannot attract the attention of the patient, and the doctor is easy to miss the diagnosis, while the visual function impairment is getting worse day by day. (Impairment of visual function includes:.)

    decreased vision, reduced visual field, etc.).

    Fourth, when looking at the lights at night, rainbow vision appears, that is, colorful halos appear next to the lights, like a rainbow in the sky after rain. This is due to increased intraocular pressure and corneal edema, which causes corneal refractive changes.

    Fifth, if you drink too much water (such as drinking more than 300ml of water at a time), you should pay attention to eye swelling and headache after drinking water for 15-30 minutes. This is because drinking water quickly and in large quantities can cause blood dilution to cause a decrease in osmotic pressure, and the amount of aqueous humor entering the eye will increase, resulting in an increase in intraocular pressure.

    Sixth, after getting up in the morning, reading books and newspapers is more difficult, and there is soreness at the root of the nose and swelling and pain in the forehead of the orbit, this is because the intraocular pressure of normal people has the law of day and night fluctuations, which is generally high in the morning and low at night, and the intraocular pressure fluctuation range of glaucoma patients in 24 hours is greater, so the intraocular pressure is higher in the morning, and the above symptoms appear.

    If the patient has the above early symptoms of glaucoma, he should go to Changchun Tongren Eye Hospital in time to find an ophthalmologist to check whether he has glaucoma, so as to detect it early and improve the effect of glaucoma, and try to minimize the probability of blindness caused by glaucoma.

    Glaucoma is known in Chinese medicine as a green wind cataract, which is an eye disease characterized by increased intraocular pressure. Normal intraocular pressure is 10 to 21 mmHg. This disease is mostly caused by anxiety and irritability, emotional internal injury, liver and gallbladder disturbance or excessive fatigue, its dark consumption, deficiency and yang floating, and visceral disorders.

    Glaucoma is further divided into acute glaucoma and chronic glaucoma.

    Acute glaucoma is ferocious, with severe pain in the head and eyes, nausea and vomiting, beads swelling and cracking, and sharp loss of vision, often occurring in the elderly, more women than men. It can be treated first in one eye or in both eyes at the same time, and surgery is preferred**.

    Chronic glaucoma has a long incubation period, vision slowly declines, the optic nerve slowly atrophies, and the visual field slowly narrows, eventually leading to blindness. The disease should be early**, the effect of Western medicine is not obvious, my ancestral Chinese medicine ** chronic glaucoma effect is very good, mainly to promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis. Nourish qi, strengthen the spleen and water, remove wind, nourish the liver and kidneys, and brighten the eyes.

    Since glaucoma is an eye disease with rapid onset and great harm, many people are more concerned about glaucoma. Traditional Chinese medicine experts pointed out that glaucoma is a hereditary eye disease, and only by paying attention to scientific care can the occurrence of complications be reduced. The daily use of American (herbal eye patch) pupil kernel can improve eye blood circulation, comprehensively and quickly supplement eye nutrition, improve eye immunity, reduce intraocular pressure, and control the development of glaucoma.

    Swollen eyes, blurred vision, eye pain, and headache. There is usually a family history.

    Early prevention is: regular eye examinations, people with a family history, once a year after the age of 40, if the doctor tells you that you have a shallow anterior chamber, it means that you have a potential risk of glaucoma, and check the intraocular pressure every year. If you detect it early**, you won't go blind.

    The symptoms and manifestations of glaucoma are generally nausea and vomiting, decreased vision, iridium vision, etc. Elevated intraocular pressure causes the optic nerve to compress, leading to vagus nerve excitation and vomiting nerve centers. Elevated intraocular pressure also directly affects intracranial pressure, which is one of the important causes of nausea and vomiting.

    Visual acuity gradually decreased, and the visual acuity correction of optometry and glasses was less than 1.0 percent. Especially for people with high myopia, after wearing the right glasses, they often feel pain and sore eyes. Glaucoma is caused by increased intraocular pressure, insufficient blood supply to the optic nerve, and if not timely**, it can cause blindness, and patients with nearsightedness or farsightedness and patients with diabetes are prone to glaucoma.

    The symptoms of glaucoma patients are: nasal root acid, blurred vision, headache and nausea in the early stage, but the symptoms will be relieved by resting; As the disease worsens, symptoms become more frequent and last longer; In severe cases, severe headaches, nausea, and eye pain may occur, and the field of vision will become smaller and smaller, leading to blindness.

    Early symptoms of glaucoma.

    1. Acute: headache, eye pain, vomiting, accompanied by vision loss.

    2. Chronic: the symptoms are not obvious, and there is gradually visual field defect.

    Glaucoma patients strictly follow the instructions of the ophthalmologist, order anti-glaucoma drops on time, go to the hospital on time for follow-up, intraocular pressure measurement, regular review of visual field, and see a doctor at any time if there is any change. In daily life, pay attention to maintaining a good mood, living a regular life, quitting smoking, not overeating, and keeping the stool smooth.

    Glaucoma refers to an eye disease in which intraocular pressure is intermittent or continuously elevated, and persistent high intraocular pressure can cause damage to all parts of the eyeball tissues and visual function, and if not timely, the visual field can be completely lost and blinded. Glaucoma is one of the three major blindness diseases that cause blindness in humans, with a total human incidence of 1% and 2% after the age of 45.

    **Measures (1) Vitamin B injection can inject vitamin B, which has a certain effect.

    2) Laser** If the condition cannot be controlled by medication**, the laser can be tried before other surgical procedures are taken. New tests have shown that lasers** are effective for wide-angle glaucoma. This is done by irradiating the iris with a laser to relieve intraocular pressure.

    3) Supplemental nutrients.

    4) Surgery**. Glaucoma patients are advised to actively strive for early and effective ** to minimize visual impairment.

    Hello, glaucoma can directly affect the patient's eye health, causing irreparable vision loss. If the patient's eyes have symptoms of glaucoma, they need to go to the local professional eye hospital for consultation and examination in time, and carry out ** in time to protect their vision and eye health.

    In general, there are several symptoms in the early stages of glaucoma:

    Nausea and vomiting: Nausea and vomiting caused by gastrointestinal diseases are very common, and can generally be relieved by anti-nausea and painkillers, while nausea and vomiting during glaucoma attacks will only be reduced or eliminated when intraocular pressure drops.

    Rainbow vision: It means that when the patient is ill, there will be a rainbow-like circle of light around the light. The outer ring is red, and the inner ring is green or violet-blue.

    This is due to corneal edema caused by impaired intraocular fluid circulation after increased intraocular pressure, resulting in refractive changes. When the intraocular pressure returns to normal, the rainbow vision disappears.

    Headache: Because glaucomatous headaches are caused by increased intraocular pressure pressing on the eye tissue, they can only be relieved or eliminated when the intraocular pressure drops. Glaucoma headache is also accompanied by swollen pain in the orbit and base of the nose, and headache in one eye can also be severe pain.

    Visual impairment: Glaucoma has significant vision loss in acute onset. In addition to the cause of residual chain corneal edema, the optic nerve is damaged by increased intraocular pressure. The higher the intraocular pressure, the more severe the optic nerve compression, and the more obvious the loss of visual acuity.

    There are two early symptoms of glaucoma:

    Early symptoms of glaucoma.

    1. Agitation or staying in the dark for too long (such as watching movies, TV or working in a dark room) can lead to eye swelling, headache, blurred vision, and a layer of clouds in front of the eyes, which is an early symptom of angle-closure glaucoma. After multiple recurrences, it is possible to suddenly enter the acute major attack phase.

    Early symptoms of glaucoma.

    2. Drink more water at ordinary times. Glaucoma patients will have headaches when they drink more than 300 ml of water at one time, and glaucoma is more common in mood swings, excessive worry, depression, panic, anger, etc., may cause acute attacks of glaucoma, and insomnia is also one of the inducing factors of glaucoma. These mental factors can cause excessive tension in the central nervous system, which can cause the stability of the body's internal environment to lose balance and induce an increase in intraocular pressure.

    Glaucoma can cause severe blindness, so it should be detected early.

    Guidance: The method of glaucoma is to lower or control the intraocular pressure to promote the discharge of aqueous humor, so drugs or surgeries can be selected according to the glaucoma **.

    Early symptoms of glaucoma.

    1. Acute: headache, eye pain, vomiting, accompanied by vision loss.

    2. Chronic: the symptoms are not obvious, and there is gradually visual field defect.

    Stay healthy. Angle-closure glaucoma occurs more often at dusk, in the evening, in gloomy weather, and during the cold season. In winter, it is cold outside and warm inside, and if the patient suddenly experiences a temperature change from hot to cold when going out, it is easy to induce acute glaucoma.

    It is recommended that before going out, it is best to find a "transition zone" of temperature to let the body slowly adapt to the cold environment outside.

    Medicinal food should not be used. 1. The diet should be light and eat more vegetables and fruits. Avoid spicy and greasy food, alcohol, strong tea, coffee, etc.

    Strong tea and coffee containing caffeine can excite the parasympathetic nervous system, resulting in intraocular vasodilation, increased aqueous humor secretion, and increased intraocular pressure. It is necessary to properly control the amount of water intake, and excessive water intake at one time will cause intraocular pressure to rise.

    2. It is advisable to eat honey, because honey and glycerol are both hypertonic agents, which can increase the osmotic pressure of blood after taking it to reduce intraocular pressure.

    3. Eat foods that can prevent constipation, such as crude fiber foods, bananas, sesame oil, etc., to keep the stool smooth.

    4. Eat foods that have a beneficial effect on water, such as winter melon, loofah, red adzuki beans, etc.

    5. Attention should be paid to the toxicity of some anti-glaucoma drugs.

    Mood regulation. Glaucoma patients should not be pessimistic and maintain a good mood. Depression and outbursts of anger are common triggers for glaucoma.

    Patients must avoid excessive mental stress, reduce unnecessary burden on the mind, and maintain adequate sleep to promote the recovery of the whole body, especially the central nervous system.

    Living. 1. Life must be regular. To prevent colds, wear loose collars, get enough sleep, and sleep with pillows slightly higher.

    2. Do not stay in the dark for too long, because in a dark environment, the changes in the pupil will cause the aqueous humor to be blocked and the intraocular pressure will increase. Reading or other close recreation, as well as working at the desk for too long, can trigger glaucoma attacks.

    3. Insist on physical exercise, which can speed up blood flow, reduce fundus stasis, smooth aqueous humor circulation, and reduce intraocular pressure. However, it is not advisable to do those activities that bend over, bow the head, hold breath, and bear weights, so as not to increase the abdominal pressure and cause the intraocular pressure to rise and aggravate the condition.

    4. The medication should be taken according to the doctor's instructions and regular follow-up, and the dosage should not be changed by yourself. Glaucoma patients can use the finger intraocular pressure method to make a preliminary self-judgment, that is, touch their forehead, nose tip, and lips, corresponding to the high, medium, and low intraocular pressures.

    When high intraocular pressure is suspected, you should seek medical attention in time so that the ** plan can be adjusted so that the high intraocular pressure can be controlled.

    There are four types of early symptoms:

    First, I often feel tired and uncomfortable eyes.

    Second, the eyes are often sore, which will be relieved after resting.

    Third, blurred vision, myopia or presbyopia suddenly deepen.

    Fourth, the eyes often feel dry.

    Patients with glaucoma must maintain smooth bowel movements to prevent increased abdominal pressure from inducing an increase in ocular acumen pressure. It is recommended to usually recommend two cups of Zheng 9 flavor pupil tea every day to clear the liver and eyes, soothe the meridians and activate the meridians, and accelerate the metabolism of the capillaries in the eyes. So as to take care of the overall health of the eyes.
