What are the symptoms of cataracts? How can I alleviate it?

Introduction: Cataract is a relatively common eye disease in daily life, and it is more common in the elderly. The occurrence of cataract will cause patients to see clearly and have blurred vision, which will affect daily life and work.

Therefore, cataract patients should know some small measures to alleviate cataract symptoms, which can also alleviate physical discomfort. The topic I want to share today is, what are the symptoms of cataracts and how to alleviate them?

1. How should cataracts be alleviated?

In order to effectively alleviate the occurrence of cataracts, it is necessary to avoid direct exposure of bright light to the eyes in daily life. If you go out for activities, you must wear sunglasses, a sunhat, and a parasol to effectively avoid damage to the eyeballs from light and relieve cataracts. In daily life, we must maintain a happy and comfortable mood, socialize more, talk more with friends and girlfriends, and can also effectively alleviate cataracts.

Pay attention to eye hygiene, usually do not rub your eyes with your hands, and do not use unclean towels and handkerchiefs to wipe your eyes. You can close your eyes and relax your eyes, or you can look into the distance, and you can also look at the green plants to relax your eyes. In terms of diet, you can eat more protein-rich foods, eat more fish, eat less salt, and drink more water, which can also relieve cataracts.

2. What are the symptoms of cataracts?

The appearance of cataract will make the patient feel that the vision is weakened, and the vision is blurred, but there is no pain. In addition, cataracts will have different symptoms depending on the severity of the disease. Patients with mild cases will only have vision loss, while patients with severe cataracts can only see movements, but not human shapes.

Patients with cataracts will have double vision when they see things, which will cause monocular diplopia and polyopia. The color of seeing things is not so vivid, because in the early stage of cataract, the lens of the eyeball will absorb a lot of water and appear swollen. When the patient looks at the light, it will be refracted and colored light will appear, which is also known as rainbow vision in medicine.

In addition, cataract patients will block the light from entering the eyeball, resulting in day blindness or night blindness.

The most common symptom of cataracts is vision loss, followed by blurred vision. For example, like a smog day, it is mainly manifested by a decrease in contrast sensitivity. We know that when we see things clearly, we need to be very sensitive to contrast.

In hazy weather, it is like because of the gray between black and white, which reduces the sensitivity of contrast, and our vision is not clear at this time, so there will be a subjective feeling and feel very blurry. Sometimes, we feel like we have a layer of plastic paper in front of our eyes, or we always have the feeling that our eyes are blurred and blocked, but this feeling cannot be removed no matter how we wash our face, flush our eyes or wipe our glasses. This haze-like blurring or obscuring vision loss and inability to see is the main visual manifestation of cataracts.

In addition, some at night, because the lens is not very uniform, red vision can also appear, that is, there will be colored circles when looking at the light, or double vision, that is, there will be 2 lights in the lamp or there is a phantom next to it, which are common manifestations of cataracts.

According to the degree of cataract, if it is an early cataract, and it does not affect the need for vision, you can do some prevention such as wearing sunglasses, sunhat, avoid direct ultraviolet radiation, or supplement some anti-cataract oxidation foods or drugs to inhibit the process of protein deterioration through antioxidant effect. If the cataract progresses to the middle or advanced stage, conventional medication or dietary supplements are useless, and the only way to improve the quality of vision is to remove the cloudy lens and replace it with a transparent intraocular lens after surgery.

Cataract can sometimes see a clear white flocculent substance in the black eyeball, the patient will have black spots in front of the eyes, vision loss, distortion of objects, etc., but there is no swelling and soreness of the eyes.

Cataract is the result of lens aging, its essence is protein degeneration, with the current level of medical development, there is no drug that can stop or reverse this process.

1. Early stage: For some early cataracts, the disease will slow down after clinical medication, and the vision will also be slightly improved.

2. Early progression to maturity: In the process of early progression to maturity, it may naturally stop at a certain stage of development without seriously affecting vision, and some drugs can be used to delay the development of the disease.

3. Mature stage: For cataracts in the mature stage, drugs have no practical significance and can only be surgically used.

Generally speaking, the main symptom of cataract is obvious vision loss, in the early stage of cataract patients, because the lens opacity site is in the peripheral part of the eye, the patient's vision loss is not very obvious, in addition, in addition to the vision loss, the patient will also have monocular diplopia or polyopia, visual contrast sensitivity reduction, visual field defects and abnormal color vision and other symptoms. In daily life, you can wear sunglasses to block ultraviolet light, so as to alleviate the aging of the lens and alleviate the process of cataracts.

Blurred vision, decreased vision, and blurred vision is related to the degree and location of the cloudiness of the lens. Mild opacity of the posterior pole of the lens can also significantly affect visual acuity, and the opacity of the center of the lens has a much greater impact on visual acuity than the peripheral opacity, and the dilated vision of the pupil can be improved after the patient with the central lens opacity enters the dark environment.

The symptoms of cataract are generally blurred vision, dizziness to the sun, and the phenomenon of double vision is not clear, try not to go to those places where you smoke, in the sun, you can wear a sunhat or sunglasses, so as to avoid the sun can directly hit our eyes, thus causing further damage to the eyes, and at the same time, we should also pay attention to the catering, do not eat too spicy food.

There may be symptoms of weakness in the limbs, numbness in the eyes, pain in the eyes, blurred eyes, and loss of appetite. Therefore, when we have this situation, we must use the way of drinking Chinese medicine, drinking Western medicine, acupuncture, massage and surgery to alleviate this situation.

Cataract is a common eye disease, and the main manifestations of cataract are vision, blurred ghosting, etc. Cataracts should be seized in the best period and detected early.

The main symptom of cataracts is decreased vision. The loss of vision caused by cataract is related to the location of the cataract, and if the cataract is located in the periphery at an early stage, the vision may not be affected; As the cataract worsens, vision gradually decreases. In addition, cataracts can also have other symptoms, such as cataract eyes, two or more phenomena when seeing things in one eye, incomplete vision loss when looking at the same object, and sometimes worsening myopia or presbyopia.

Cataract mainly occurs in geriatric patients, and many elderly people are most afraid of surgery, but if cataract wants to be completely cured, there is only one way to do it, there is no other way. Some people may say that there are some eye drops available on the market, which can also treat cataracts, or acupuncture, or some other drugs.

Cataract is a relatively common eye disease, and the occurrence of cataract can affect the body, especially cataract, which may affect vision in severe cases. There are many factors that cause cataracts, and it is necessary to find out the triggers in terms of **, symptomatic**, cataracts are more common in people over 40 years old, and the incidence will continue to increase with age.

In life, although cataract is very common, there are still many people who don't know much about cataract, so what is cataract?

Cataract is a visual disorder that occurs when the lens is affected, which is the most important optical part of the eyeball and is generally transparent. Because the lens is affected by various reasons, patients have varying degrees of vision loss, which is often referred to as cataracts, and if the condition is severe, it may lead to blindness.

Cataract is a blinding eye disease, at present, cataract blindness accounts for about 46%, the most common of all kinds of cataract is senile cataract, which is generally more common in middle-aged and elderly people. In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of people with diabetes, and since diabetes is a metabolic disease, it will also lead to an increase in the incidence of cataracts.

Cataracts** include aging, genetics, eye disorders, immune and metabolic abnormalities, etc. Blurred vision is caused by obstruction of the lens disorder. Blurred vision, double vision, etc., this disease is more common in middle-aged and elderly people, and needs to be targeted according to different predisposing factors.

It is difficult to judge the early symptoms of cataracts, so many people miss the best time, Therefore, it is very important for everyone to know more about the early symptoms of cataracts, and it is beneficial to recover from the condition if they can be detected early.

1. The early symptoms of cataract will be blurry, and sometimes the surrounding solids and colors are not bright enough. Discomfort or irritability at night due to some glare lights should be considered as early symptoms of cataracts.

2. In the early stage of cataract, you will feel monocular polyopia, and monocular polyvision is when you look at some objects, you always feel the phenomenon of double or polyphus, and you can see things very blurry.

3. When the color vision is abnormal, it is also an early symptom of cataract, because the lens absorbs water, resulting in edema of the epithelium. When light passes through the swollen epithelium, the lens is refracted and color vision is abnormal.

Cataract patients will first have first-class and progressive vision loss, and may also have a variety of clinical symptoms such as color vision changes, decreased contrast sensitivity, refractive changes, glare, and diplopia.

The most effective way to suffer from cataract is surgery, and there is currently no effective drug for cataract. Surgery**There are two surgical methods: small incision cataract extraction and phacoemulsification cataract extraction, and the most commonly used surgical method is phacoemulsification cataract extraction.

Symptoms of cataracts.

1.Monocular polyvision.

In the early stage of cataract, part of the patient's lens will become cloudy, and part of it will be transparent, so when the light is projected on the retina, it will make people feel that there are double visions and polypharaus in front of the eyes.

2.Abnormal color vision.

In the early stage of cataract disease, the lens will swell because it absorbs too much water, and there will be some microparticle droplets in the enlarged epithelial cell space, and when the light passes through the lens, it will appear due to refraction and color halos, so cataract patients always feel that there are some colored halos in front of their eyes.

Article **23Blurred vision.

As cataracts progressively worsen, the patient's vision becomes more and more blurry, and eventually it may evolve into complete blindness.

4.Presbyopia is reduced.

As people age, many people develop presbyopia, but if someone with presbyopia suddenly discovers that they can read the words in books and newspapers without wearing reading glasses, don't be blindly happy, this may cause cataracts, a disease that causes the lens to increase in convexity, so that the symptoms of presbyopia are reduced.

5.Fear of light. Cataract patients are generally more afraid of light, especially at night, if there is a car passing by, the patient will feel particularly irritable and uncomfortable because of the glare of the headlights.

Article **36A dark shadow in front of you.

If you always feel that you have a dark shadow in front of you, and this dark shadow is still fixed, it will be more obvious in sunlight and light, which is also caused by the limited opacity of the lens caused by cataracts.

Cataract is a common ophthalmic disease, and it is the first blinding eye disease in China, which is divided into two aspects: medication and surgery.

Cataract is caused by a structure inside the eye called the lens, which acts like the lens of a camera, when the lens changes from transparent to opaque, it will prevent external light from entering the eye normally and focusing on the retina, resulting in blurred vision and decreased vision.

For early cataract, if the vision loss is not obvious, drugs can be taken**, such as intravitiligo eye drops, Shapu Aisi eye drops, etc., these eye drops have the effect of delaying the progression of cataract, trying to maintain the current existing vision, and postponing the time required for surgery, but it cannot reverse the vision loss caused by cataract.

When the cataract continues to progress, and the vision loss seriously affects the normal life, work, and study, it is necessary to consider surgery**, the operation is to make a small opening in the eye, take out the cloudy lens, and then implant a transparent intraocular lens, so that the factors that hinder the external light from entering the eye will be removed, and the vision can be improved.

Symptom. 1.Decreased vision.

When the lens is opacity, it is only light-sensitive. 2.Decreased contrast sensitivity.

The contrast sensitivity decreases significantly at high spatial frequencies. 3.Refractive changes.

Increased refractive index. 4.Altered color vision.

**。1.Drugs**. Oral auxiliary nutrition and antioxidant damage drugs.

Surgery**. Including phacoemulsification of cataract extraction, cataract capsular and external enucleation, etc.
