How to treat vitreous opacity in the eyes of the elderly?

Vitreous opacity in the elderly can be topical eye drops aminopeptide eye drops, aminoiodopeptide eye drops, horse cuff digitalis diglycoside eye drops, intramuscular aminoiodopeptide injection for 10-14 days for a course of treatment, and oral lecithin complex iodine, all of which have certain curative effects. There are no blood vessels in the vitreous, so the vitreous is cloudy and absorbs slowly. In addition, senile vitreous opacity, like graying of hair in old age, is a degenerative change.

Through local medicine, oral medicine, intramuscular injection and other means, the reduction of the black shadow fluttering in front of the eyes has achieved the goal. It is impossible to completely remove the black shadow in front of you and completely disappear the vitreous opacity by any means. In addition, if the elderly suddenly have a dark shadow fluttering in front of their eyes, they must go to the hospital for a fundus examination with dilated pupils to prevent fundus bleeding.

I'm going to talk about that, I'm a medical student. During the internship, I came into contact with a lot of elderly people with vitreous opacity, and they all said that there is nothing wrong with the phrase "people are old and old first", and the vitreous opacity of the eyes of the elderly is degenerate, that is, caused by aging, and this situation does not need to be treated.

Vitreous opacity is usually divided into congenital vitreous, opacity and pathological vitreous opacity, if it is congenital, then no special ** is required. If it is pathological, laser surgery can be applied according to **.

The vitreous will liquefy after the age of 45, and the incomplete part of the liquefaction will flutter in the vitreous cavity, and people will feel like flying insects flying in front of their eyes.

After the eyeball is subjected to external force or internal eye surgery (such as cataract), there will be more dark shadows in the eyes, if they do not affect life, you do not need to pay too much attention, usually eat more iodine-containing foods, such as kelp, seaweed, etc.; If there are more dark shadows, some drugs can be taken orally, such as Volitin, etc.; If there is a dark shadow fixed in one place and expanding, it is necessary to go to the hospital to rule out whether there is an eye disease such as retinal detachment.

Vitreous opacity is mainly divided into two types, one is physiological vitreous opacity and the other is pathological vitreous opacity. Physiological vitreous opacity is more common in the elderly, and the main symptoms are not seeing clearly, feeling that there are floaters and black shadows in front of them. This is a phenomenon of normal aging of the vitreous, which can be used with drugs, and is generally not needed.

Pathological vitreous opacity is mostly caused by ocular trauma, vitreous hemorrhage, intraocular inflammation, retinal diseases, etc., and the main symptoms are sudden blackness and flashing sensation in front of the eyes. Pathological vitreous opacity must be timely**, otherwise it will seriously affect vision.

There is currently no effective drug**, and laser ablation**, vitrectomy** may be considered in special cases.

At this time, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time for a good examination, and then do surgery to change the problem in time.

Older people with such problems usually have surgery as an option** because it requires surgery if it affects our normal vision.

Hello: There are many reasons for vitreous opacity, but in elderly patients, it is mostly seen in physiological vitreous fluid, mainly observation, the effect of the drug is not very good, and some can attract themselves.

Guidance: Vitreous opacity itself is not particularly harmful, as long as it does not affect vision, you can observe it by yourself, do not worry.

However, if there is a sudden increase in dark shadows in front of your eyes, or it affects your vision, you must go to the hospital in time, and the effect of early medication will be better.

The elderly suffer from vitreous opacity, if it is not a physiological lesion, it is pathological, and the physiological is mainly due to age, the protein aging of the eyeball, and the microcirculation in the eyeball is not good, which is actually relatively common; Many of the pathological ones are caused by complications, and they should be controlled with medication in time, otherwise the disease will develop quickly, which will affect the vision very much. For this type of medicine, the hospital usually prescribes some eye drops and oral medicines, and for external eye medicine, it is recommended to use Taurus eye medicine, which does not contain preservatives, and the effect is also good, and the effect of dealing with eye diseases in the elderly is also very good.

A: If the test result is confirmed to be vitreous opacity, it may be due to the excessive force of the cap touching the eye, causing fundus bleeding, and the amount of bleeding may be small, so you cannot detect it with the naked eye. However, if you have just experienced this situation, it is still in the early stages of eye trauma, and you only need to take some hemostatic drugs such as Yunnan Baiyao, Panax notoginseng tablets and vitamin C, and you can recover within two weeks of mild treatment.

In addition, it is also possible that the tissues of the fundus have absorbed the drug, but the symptoms are still there, so you can take lecithin complex iodine tablets, and the symptoms should slowly disappear after half a month. Once the vision deteriorates rapidly during the ** period, there is a dark shadow in front of the eyes, and if there is a high degree of myopia at the same time, the patient is prone to retinal detachment after half a month, and this situation is serious. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for an eye examination and fundus examination as soon as you notice symptoms.

It is best not to do strenuous exercise and not to apply overheated water to your eyes during the illness to prevent the dilation of blood vessels from exacerbating the symptoms.

If vitreous opacity is confirmed by ophthalmoscopy and ocular ultrasound examination, the appropriate prescription is generally determined according to the specific degree of opacity. If mild to moderate vitreous opacity, iodine-containing drugs are generally used**; If the vitreous opacity is severe, consider vitrectomy if necessary.

Vitrectomy can be used for patients who are mainly drug** and generally ineffective in severe cases.

1.Drugs**: First, anti-inflammatory or hemostasis**, followed by iodine preparations, hyaluronidase, urokinase or calcium to promote absorption.

2.Surgery**: Microscopic removal of the diseased vitreous.

3.Other**: ultrashort wave, or ultrasound and sodium iodide iontophoresis and other physics**.

It is recommended to go to the hospital for eye examination, and then do the ** plan according to the condition. Patients with fresh vitreous hemorrhage should be given bed rest and hemostatic drugs; For patients with old bleeding, drugs that promote turbid absorption should be used, such as lutein with liquid lutein, oral vitamin C, dibazole, etc., and intramuscular injection of iodine or hyaluronidase. In severe cases, vitrectomy may be used if it is generally ineffective.

Vitreous opacity caused by heavy intraocular hemorrhage, retinal detachment, etc., requires surgery**.

Hello! Vitreous opacities is not a disease name, but one of the most common phenomena of vitreous. Vitreous opacity refers to the transparent gel in the vitreous, and the appearance of opaque body is opacity.

A variety of eye diseases can cause vitreous opacity, and the patient feels that the black shadow in front of his eyes is fluttering, like a mosquito flying.

The onset of the disease is sudden and the disease progresses rapidly. Depending on the location and degree of vitreous opacity, the degree of impact on vision is also different. Mild opacities do not affect vision, and ophthalmoscopy does not detect significant opacities.

common in degenerative myopia, uveitis, and vitreous hemorrhage; The patient felt a large and large number of dark shadows in front of his eyes, and his vision was reduced to varying degrees; Examination of the fundus may reveal something as fine as dust or streaks of wool, which floats erratically; In severe cases, the fundus cannot be glimpsed, and even the fundus has no red light reflex. Under normal conditions, intravitreal cells are few, vascular, have a slow metabolism and are highly transparent. Vitreous opacity is one of the main manifestations of vitreous disease.

This can only be seen in the hospital, and I can't cure it

And it should not work, or it must be combined with physical means such as surgery.

Hello, the normal vitreous is a transparent gel, and if it is opaque, it is called vitreous opacity. In general, vitreous opacity is divided into mild and severe, mild vitreous opacity, the patient will feel a dark shadow in front of his eyes, which has little impact on the body, and belongs to the vitreous metabolism problem

Vitreous opacity (also known as floaters), generally speaking, there is no major matter, if you want to **, you can consider using ampolium to try (under the guidance of a doctor).

The vitreous humor is the most important filling in the eyeball. For example, the vitreous is like a transparent jelly. Normally, the vitreous is clear and transparent.

However, due to aging, or under certain pathological factors, local opacities may occur within the vitreous. When the cloudy matter floating in the vitreous is projected onto the retina, it will produce a dark shadow floating in front of the eyes, which can appear in the form of points, lines, and rings. These black shadows in front of them will change their position with the rotation of their eyes, flying back and forth like mosquitoes, reaching out to grab but unable to catch them, so that people are mad.

In general, acute floaters need to go to the ophthalmologist to carefully dilate the pupils and examine the fundus.

I'm also vitreous opacity, more than two years. , I didn't do anything**, but I usually pay attention to protecting my eyes, don't call my eyes too tired. Then it's a matter of eating more carrots and other greens that are good for your eyes. It doesn't have much impact on life, just calm down, don't be too anxious

Is there a way to do vitreous opacity**?

In fact, the main reason for the vitreous will be cloudy, in fact, there will be some foreign bodies in the eyes when you are older, in this case, it will form cloudiness, if you want to prevent it, you can usually pay attention to protecting your eyes and do eye exercises.

The vitreous will slowly degenerate with age and become cloudy. Eat more vegetables and fruits, standardize your living habits, and don't stay up late.

Vitreous opacity in the elderly is often due to vitreous degeneration caused by diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, or excessive use of the eyes. Usually pay attention to eye habits, avoid overuse of eyes, eat more vegetables and fruits, and go to bed early to prevent this disease.
