Treatment of ophthalmic allergy in Guangzhou
Ophthalmic allergy refers to an eye disease in which the eye has allergic reaction to specific allergens. As a hot and humid city, Guangzhou is prone to eye allergy symptoms due to the hot and humid climate all year round. In view of this situation, we can elaborate on how to deal with ophthalmic allergy from the following aspects.
1. Seek doctor's diagnosis and prescription
The first step is to seek the help of an ophthalmologist in time when ophthalmic allergy symptoms occur. In Guangzhou, there are many formal eye hospitals, such as the Eye Center of Sun Yat sen University in Guangzhou, and the Eye Department of South China Hospital in Guangzhou. Go to these hospitals for ophthalmic examination and diagnosis, and the doctor will give corresponding treatment plans according to the specific symptoms. According to different allergens, doctors may prescribe anti allergic eye drops, eye ointment or oral drugs.
In terms of medication, it is necessary to follow the doctor's recommendations, follow the dosage and frequency of medication, and pay attention to the storage and use period of drugs.
In addition, doctors may recommend avoiding contact with allergen substances, such as pollen, dust mites, animal hair, etc. Keep the eyes clean, replace pillows, quilt covers and other items regularly, and use air purifiers is also an effective means of prevention.
2. Hot compress and cold compress relieve symptoms
Eye allergy symptoms are often accompanied by eye itching, redness, swelling and other discomfort. At this time, you can try hot or cold compress to alleviate the symptoms.
For itching, redness and swelling, soak a clean towel with warm water and gently apply it to the eyes for about 15 minutes each time. Warm water can soothe eye skin, relieve eye pain and redness.
If your eyes are sore or hot, try cold compress. Put cold water or ice cubes in plastic bags, then wrap them with clean towels and gently apply them around the eyes for about 10 minutes each time. Cold compress can relieve pain and inflammation.
3. Avoid irritants and pay attention to hygiene
In addition to avoiding contact with allergens, attention should also be paid to avoiding eye injuries caused by other irritants.
In the hot season of Guangzhou, the sun is strong, and the ultraviolet ray does some harm to the eyes. In outdoor activities, it is best to wear suitable sunglasses to prevent plant pollen, dust or other irritants from entering the eyes.
In addition, attention should be paid to eye hygiene. Wash your hands frequently and avoid touching your eyes with dirty hands; Do not share personal items such as towels and eyedrops with others; Avoid using electronic products for a long time, such as computers, mobile phones, etc., because radiation and screen brightness have certain irritation to the eyes.
4. Regular return visits and healthy living habits
After receiving the doctor's treatment suggestions, it is necessary to return on time to assess the efficacy and adjust the treatment plan.
In addition, the occurrence of ophthalmic allergy can be prevented by developing healthy living habits. Keep indoor ventilation, keep good hygiene habits, wash eyes regularly to remove dust and bacteria, and avoid staying up late and using eyes for a long time.
