How can I tell if I have ocular hypertension? What are the characteristics of patients with ocular h

Particularly swollen eyes, nausea and vomiting, decreased vision, dizziness, and a sense of pressure on the eyeballs all indicate that you have high blood pressure, and you should go to the hospital in time at this time.

It can be judged based on clinical symptoms. For example, if the eyes are bloodshot, the eyes are swollen and painful, and you will have headaches and nausea, sometimes you want to vomit, and you can see things blurrily, which may be high ocular pressure.

You can go directly to the hospital for an examination to determine your eye condition, and you may experience photophobia, decreased vision, dizziness, nausea, and eye pain.

Our common symptoms of ocular hypertension are:

1.mild intraocular hypertension, manifested by eye pain, nasal soreness, red or foggy vision, and headache;

2.Moderate-to-high intraocular pressure is manifested by decreased visual acuity, red or foggy vision, and symptoms such as eye pain, headache, nausea, and vomiting. Some patients have prolonged pain and may be tolerated.

The following are the opinions of the doctor regarding high intraocular pressure:

1. Once the intraocular pressure is found to be elevated during the physical examination, further examination is required under the guidance of the doctor.

2. If you have a family history of glaucoma and high myopia, and you should seek medical attention in time if you find eye pain and visual field defects.

The development of intraocular hypertension is a slow and relatively benign process. Through long-term observation, the IOP of the vast majority of patients with high intraocular pressure is stable and even has a downward trend, which is in sharp contrast to the slow progressive worsening of open-angle glaucoma, optic disc hemorrhage is considered to be a sign of transition to open-angle glaucoma, mostly located in the upper and lower poles of the optic disc, and the lower pole is more common, and patients with high intraocular pressure should be closely followed up and observed.

High intraocular pressure is an aspect of a variety of diseases, for example, there are some glaucoma patients It can be manifested as high intraocular pressure, after the patient's intraocular pressure is high, most of the patients, he will feel that the eyes are swollen, vision decreases, blurred vision, headache, orbital pain, some will also have nausea, vomiting, unable to eat, of course, some patients have high intraocular pressure, his feeling is not obvious, but its field of vision, that is, the afterglow of seeing things will gradually shrink, causing his vision impairment, If it's serious, it can affect his life.

In life, when people use their eyes excessively, it is easy to cause an increase in ocular blood pressure, at this time, the human body will also have some uncomfortable symptoms due to high intraocular pressure.

1.Symptom 1: Headache, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms may occur. Among them, the eyeballs are swollen and painful, headache, and sometimes nausea, vomiting. Vision loss is the most prominent symptom.

2.Symptom 2: Although high intraocular pressure is not fatal, it can cause cleft and optomy. Symptoms of high intraocular pressure, if you press lightly with your hand, you will find that it is harder than normal (you can try it carefully) The high intraocular pressure first compresses the fundus, causing fundus pain, and in severe cases, headache.

3.Symptom 3: With the increase of eye blood pressure, it can also cause a certain compression of the optic nerve to a certain extent, which is easy to cause optic nerve atrophy, with the gradual atrophy of the optic nerve, the peripheral visual field will be high and the source of the feast will not be seen first, and then the vision will gradually decrease, and finally the optic nerve will be atrophied to cause blindness.

What kind of people are <> prone to ocular hypertension? What should I do if I have ocular hypertension?

1.Surveys have shown that people with a family history of glaucoma have a higher chance of developing high intraocular pressure. People with high myopia have a thinner cornea** thickness than normal and have a higher chance of developing high intraocular pressure.

Obese patients are at high risk for diabetes, hypertension, cerebrovascular disease, and peripheral vasospasm, which can cause systemic hemodynamic and hemrheological abnormalities of optic disc hypoperfusion, resulting in high intraocular pressure. High intraocular pressure can be improved through dietary conditioning, and it is necessary to eat more honey in daily life. Honey is a hypertonic agent that increases the osmotic pressure in the blood, thereby absorbing water from the eye into the bloodstream, achieving the effect of reducing intraocular pressure.

In addition, patients can eat more watermelon, winter melon, and red beans. These foods have a diuretic effect, and eating more of them can also lower intraocular pressure.

2.Maintaining a good mood can also lower intraocular pressure, because many people's intraocular pressure is elevated due to high work pressure, so as long as the patient maintains a relaxed and happy mood in daily life, intraocular pressure can be lowered immediately. Eye rest is also a way to lower intraocular pressure, and excessive fatigue is the most common factor causing high intraocular pressure.

In order to alleviate eye strain, the eyes should be well rested, patients should have a regular personal routine, maintain adequate sleep, and reduce the time spent using electronic devices.

3.High intraocular pressure is very harmful and can cause damage to the structure of the eye. Excessive pressure can lead to corneal edema, lens opacity, and iris atrophy.

The most serious injury is damage to the optic nerve. The human eye is in a light bulb, and the optic nerve is like a wire. Optic nerve death can cause the patient's field of vision to gradually shrink, and in severe cases, the patient will lose sight.

In order to prevent high intraocular pressure, we need to maintain a good mental state, pay attention to relaxation, and maintain a happy spirit. Don't stay in a dark room or in the dark for too long, don't look down for long periods of time, and turn on the lights while watching TV. Because staying in the dark for too long, bowing your head to study for too long, fatigue, and poor rest will cause fluctuations in intraocular pressure, so try to avoid it.

If you occasionally notice an increase in intraocular pressure, you don't need to be overly stressed and can be monitored regularly. If the intraocular pressure is too high or progressively increasing for a long time, accompanied by eye swelling, eye pain, and even vomiting and headache, it is necessary to go to a professional institution for intervention in time to reduce the damage of long-term intraocular pressure to the optic nerve.

1.People with a family history of glaucoma: Surveys have shown that people with a family history of glaucoma have a higher chance of developing ocular hypertension.

2. People with high myopia: The thickness of the cornea** of people with high myopia is thinner than that of normal people, and the chance of suffering from ocular hypertension is higher. 3. Obese people:

Obese people are at high risk of diabetes, hypertension, cerebrovascular disease, and peripheral vasospasm, which can cause systemic hemodynamic and hemorheological abnormalities of optic disc hypoperfusion, resulting in high intraocular pressure. Disease. Patients with ocular hypertension should be aware of:

1.Follow the doctor's instructions for regular follow-up appointments, intraocular pressure testing and eye examinations, to understand changes in intraocular pressure, visual field, optic nerve, to determine potential glaucoma, and to investigate the possibility of glaucoma. 2. Pay attention to protect your eyes, avoid overusing your eyes, and prevent eye fatigue.

3. Develop good living habits, don't stay up late, and ensure adequate sleep. 4.Avoid strenuous exercise to prevent increased intraocular pressure.

5. Rainbow vision is to be able to see that there is a colored halo around the lamp when looking at the light. After the intraocular pressure increases, the intraocular circulation is impaired, and the corneal epithelium appears edema, just like the increase of moisture in the air, which changes the refraction of light, so people with high intraocular pressure are prone to iridescence.

6. The eyes naturally look downward, touch the eyeball lightly with the tips of the two index fingers above the upper edge of the tarsal plate, and place the remaining fingers on the patient's forehead for support, and the tips of the two index fingers alternately press lightly.

In addition, intraocular pressure can be measured frequently with a professional tonometry instrument.

High intraocular pressure can be known by the associated manifestations, so what are the symptoms of high intraocular pressure?

The main symptoms of high intraocular pressure are bloodshot eyes, redness, eye pain, decreased vision, colored halos when looking at light sources, and some patients will also experience headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting and other manifestations. High intraocular pressure is usually caused by glaucoma, that is, due to congenital dysplasia, eye trauma, long-term use of hormonal drugs, etc., resulting in abnormal function of structures such as trabecular meshwork and angle inside the eyeball. As a result, a large amount of aqueous humor generated by the ciliary muscle inside the eyeball cannot be successfully discharged out of the eye through the trabecular mesh and the angle, and it accumulates in the eyeball, which will increase the intraocular pressure.

If you can't get ** in time, high intraocular pressure will compress the optic nerve, causing optic nerve atrophy, and patients will have symptoms such as vision loss and visual field defects.

If the intraocular pressure is high, you can ask your doctor about a special catheter: Children with high intraocular pressure or severe glaucoma may be able to have a small catheter implanted to help drain the aqueous humor, which can lower the intraocular pressure, and laser surgery may also be considered.
