Can severe dry eyes cause insomnia?

Dry eye syndrome does not cause insomnia, but rather is caused by the deterioration of the function of the tear-producing glands in the eye, resulting in insufficient or deterioration in the quality of tears. The main manifestations are redness and astringency of the eyes, slight loss of vision when seeing, fear of light and reluctance to open the eyes. In the case of dry eye syndrome, you can go to the hospital to check the tear secretion test and intimal rupture test to confirm the diagnosis and understand the severity of dry eye syndrome.

**If you have dry eyes, you should pay attention to the following:

First, you can use a warm towel to warm your eyelids, three to four times a day for five to ten minutes each time, the temperature is controlled at about 40 degrees, and if the temperature of the towel drops during the hot compress, you can change the water to maintain the temperature.

Second, you can massage the meibomian glands, the specific massage method is to close the eyes and use the fingertips of the fingers to massage from the direction of the eye frame to the direction of the eyelids, massage can improve the secretion function of the meibomian glands, and the massage effect is better after hot compress.

Third, you can order artificial tear eye drops, such as sodium hyaluronate eye drops, polyethylene glycol eye drops, polyvinyl alcohol eye drops, etc., which can add moisture to the eyes to alleviate dry eye syndrome.

Dry eye syndrome is a decrease in tear fluid due to decreased tear gland secretion, which reduces the lubrication of the cornea and causes discomfort in the eyeball. Identification can be performed using lacrimal gland secretion assays.

Suggestion: Depending on your situation, you can use artificial tear drops or apply a hot compress for 10 minutes every night, combined with oral Qi Ju Dihuang pills and vitamin B complex drugs**. It should work well.

There are many reasons for vision loss, and other reasons need to be ruled out, if there are no other factors, there are two main aspects of vision loss caused by dry eye travel, one is the instability of the tear film, the tear film is equivalent to the coating of the lens, which can increase the optical effect of the cornea and make the vision clear. Therefore, the instability of the tear film will affect vision; The second is that the corneal epithelium, especially the pupillary area, is incomplete, which makes the optical surface of the cornea not smooth, just like the surface of the lens is grinded, which affects vision.

Dry eye syndrome can cause vision loss because the tear glands are undersecreted or evaporated. After the patient has liver inflammation, it is usually necessary to use anti-inflammatory eye drops**Common eye drops, such as tobramycin eye drops, fusidic acid eye drops, levofloxacin eye drops, etc., under the guidance of a doctor. While using eye drops** for liver inflammation, it is also necessary to go to the hospital regularly for follow-up check-ups to understand the recovery status of the disease.

You can drink (Huiran Youpin Black Goji Berry) once a day to soak in water, make tea or eat directly. When looking at a computer, mobile phone or TV, pay attention to rest your eyes; Have regular eye checks, pay attention to eye hygiene, wash your hands frequently, and avoid rubbing your eyes with unclean hands. The light should be sufficient and comfortable, avoid the reflection of the bush, and when reading a book, the time should not be too long.

At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to the balance of diet and nutrition, and usually eat more whole grains, grains, red and green vegetables, potatoes, beans, fruits and other foods containing vitamins, protein and fiber. Eat more foods that contain vitamin C. Because vitamin C is one of the components that make up the lens of the eyeball.

Foods rich in vitamin C include fresh vegetables and fruits, especially green peppers, cucumbers, cauliflower, bok choy, fresh dates, raw pears, oranges, etc. Eat more protein-rich meats, such as lean meat, poultry, animal offal, fish and shrimp, milk, eggs, beans, etc.

There are many causes of dry eye syndrome, so let's first understand the composition of tears. Tears have a three-layer structure, it is a thin layer of water film, but its surface is a layer of oil, the main purpose of the oil film is to prevent the water layer inside from evaporating too quickly, the middle is a thick layer of water, and then the most surface is a mucus layer, the mucus layer is a layer of structure that allows water to adhere to the surface of the eye. So why do we get dry eyes?

There are three main reasons. The first reason is that the function of this oil film is not good, and the main organ secreted by this oil film is called meibomian glands, so meibomian gland dysfunction is one of the most common causes of dry eye syndrome, especially in elderly patients. Then the second reason is the dysfunction of the aqueous layer, that is, the amount of water in the middle is insufficient.

The third reason is the obstacle of the mucus layer, which is generally related to some underlying diseases, and the underlying diseases of the ocular surface may also be affected by the preservatives in the long-term use of eye drops.

That could be an eye problem caused by the misalignment of the cervical spine 1 2, maybe the physiological curvature of your cervical spine is a little straightened? I don't think it's the eye itself that's wrong.
