What are the symptoms of dry eye syndrome? What are the symptoms of dry eye?

The most common symptoms of dry eye syndrome are dry eyes and foreign body sensation, and other symptoms include burning, itchy eyes, photophobia, red and painful eyes, blurred vision, decreased vision, easy visual fatigue, and sticky discharge. If it is accompanied by dry mouth and arthralgia, it may be conjunctival Sjogren's syndrome. At the same time, there is insufficient tear secretion and instability of the tear film, damage to the epithelial cells of the ocular surface, and increased osmotic pressure of tears.

Dry eye syndrome can be divided into dry eye syndrome with aqueous fluid deficiency, dry eye syndrome with mucin deficiency, dry eye syndrome with lipid deficiency and dry eye syndrome caused by abnormal tear fluid mechanics.

If you have these symptoms, then you may be suffering from dry eyes!

The symptoms of dry eye syndrome are divided into: tear deficiency type dry eye, that is, dry eye syndrome caused by decreased tear secretion and excessive evaporation, and the normal tear film on the surface of the eye dries out faster.

The common symptoms of dry eye syndrome are dry eyes and foreign body sensation, and other symptoms include burning, itching, photophobia, red pain, blurred vision, easy fatigue, and sticky discharge. If the above symptoms are present, a careful history should be taken to look for**.

The symptoms of dry eye syndrome are: dry eye sensation, foreign body sensation, pain, photophobia, burning sensation, itching, eye redness, visual fatigue, blurred vision, fluctuating vision, itching, stinging, dryness, inappropriateness, foreign body sensation, easy visual fatigue, heavy eyelids, irritability, difficulty concentrating and other symptoms. Severe dry eyes can cause significant vision loss and affect work and life, and even lead to blindness.

Symptoms of dry eye syndrome are exacerbated by high temperatures, dry climates, exposure to certain chemicals, dust, smoke, and prolonged exposure to computer screens. In the case of exacerbation, the symptoms of dry eye syndrome are manifested as follows: oily areas form at the edge of the eyelids, seborrheic blepharitis or crusts.

Removing it will cause bleeding on the surface. The tear film is reduced in thickness and mucous debris or fibrous discharge is present. The conjunctiva becomes dull, thickened, edematous, bleeding, and sometimes encapsulated by discharge, and in more severe cases, the conjunctiva may become keratinized.

When corneal staining is done with fluorescein, punctate pooling occurs.

Clinical markers that are commonly helpful in diagnosing dry eye are tear gland breakup time, lacrimal gland secretion test, and diagnostic staining.

As long as there are the above symptoms of dry eye syndrome, even if the objective test is negative, dry eye syndrome can still be diagnosed. Conversely, even if the objective test is positive, but the patient does not have the above symptoms, then the diagnosis of dry eye should be very cautious.

Normally, the lacrimal glands secrete a moderate amount of tears, which are made even by blinking the eyes.

Apply evenly on the surface of the cornea and conjunctiva to form a tear film, which plays a role in moisturizing the eyes and enhancing the resistance of the eyes. For people with dry eye syndrome, the amount or quality of tears secreted by the tear glands will decrease, which affects the stability of the tear film on the surface of the eyeball, resulting in symptoms such as dry eyes, photophobia, itching, red eyes, and easy fatigue.

If you often feel eye discomfort in your daily life, you should think that you may be suffering from "dry eye syndrome". Usually, when people with dry eye are focused, blinking less frequently and exposing the cornea to the air longer than the tear film breaks, so the dryness is particularly noticeable.

Dry eye tests include tear secretion and intimal breakdown time; Some specialized hospitals can also do dry eye examination through a dry eye analyzer, which can observe the height of the inner core, the thickness of the lipid layer of the intima, the opening of the facial glands, and the evaluation of the facial glands.

If you have these symptoms, then you may be suffering from dry eyes!
