People's eyes are very important to people and are used a lot. Many people will drop eye drops because of eye discomfort. Of course, some eye drops are just for relieving fatigue. There are actually many kinds of eye diseases. Most eye diseases will be relieved by eye drops. Improper use is harmful to eyes. How should I drop the eye drops? Correct drop method of eye drops

1, improper injury

Ms. Zhang, 5 1 year old, is engaged in accounting work. I have to work in front of the computer for at least five or six hours every day. Ms. Zhang's eyes are a little overwhelmed, and she feels itchy and dry. She bought a bottle of anti-fatigue eye drops at the drugstore in front of the community. After that, as soon as she felt dry eyes, she dropped a few drops of eye drops.

At first, when I put the medicine down, my eyes were really much more comfortable. But in less than a month, the eye drops can't stop itching. She went to the drugstore after all, and the staff said that her eyes might be inflamed and had to be replaced with anti-inflammatory eye drops. However, her eye symptoms have not improved at all, and she bought two kinds of eye drops, which still have no effect. Recently, her eyes are swollen and she can hardly open them.

Later, I came to the hospital for examination and learned that her cornea had festered in a mess, and she might be blind if she dragged on. The doctor said that this was mainly caused by drug stimulation. In addition to bactericidal and anti-inflammatory ingredients, some eye drops also contain hormones and preservatives, which will damage the eyes over time. Moreover, if eye drops are used for a long time, it will increase the drug resistance of bacteria. Once the eyes are infected again, the eye drops will lose their effect and delay the illness.

2. Correct descent method

(1) Lie on your back or sit well, raise your head and turn your eyes upward (look at the top of your head);

(2) Take an eye drop bottle in one hand and gently pull down the eyelid in the other;

(3) Drop eye drops into the conjunctival sac of the lower eyelid, or on the whites of the eyes, but never on the black eyeballs;

(4) After dripping, slightly lift the upper eyelid to keep the liquid medicine in the conjunctival sac as much as possible;

(5) Close your eyes gently for 2-3 minutes, and press the skin in the lacrimal sac area (slightly lower than the corner of your eye) for 2-3 minutes to prevent eye drops from losing through the lacrimal canaliculus and nasolacrimal duct.

(6) When two or more kinds of eye drops are used at the same time, the drug with weak irritation should be dripped first, and then the drug with strong irritation should be dripped, with an interval of 5 minutes.

3, pay attention to when using

(1) When dropping eye drops, pay attention to the bottle mouth facing down, about 3-5cm away from the eyeball. Don't touch the eyelashes and eyelid edges, and don't press the eyeball, so as not to pollute or hurt your eyes.

(2) If the eye drops are suspensions (such as milky white liquid, etc. ), should shake well before use.

(3) When atropine or Pinocchio is dripped, the lacrimal sac should be compressed for 2-3 minutes to avoid adverse reactions caused by the liquid medicine flowing into the lacrimal sac and nasal cavity through the lacrimal passage and being absorbed by the mucosa.

④ Generally, drop one eye drop at a time.

(5) When dropping a variety of drugs at the same time, every time the interval is 5- 10 minutes, eye drops should be applied first, and then eye ointment should be applied; Drop the medicine with weak irritation first, and then drop the medicine with strong irritation.

(6) After dropping the eye drops, the head should be slightly inclined to the affected side to avoid the infection caused by the liquid medicine flowing into the healthy eyes.

(7) All drugs should be used within the validity period of the outer packaging, and the validity period is within one month after opening.
