Early symptoms of ophthalmic keratitis in Xi'an
Ophthalmic keratitis is a common eye disease. If it can be found early and treated correctly, it can avoid further deterioration. As a rapidly developing city, Xi'an has many professional ophthalmic hospitals. From their experience, the early symptoms of ophthalmic keratitis in Xi'an mainly include the following aspects:
1. Eye pain and burning sensation
Eye pain and burning sensation are common symptoms of early keratitis. When the cornea is infected or damaged, the eyes will feel sore, hot and uncomfortable. The degree of pain varies from individual to individual. Some people may only feel slight discomfort, while others may experience severe pain. Eye pain and burning sensation are usually accompanied by redness, swelling and tears.
The ophthalmologist suggests that if you feel pain or burning in your eyes, especially if you can't relieve it for several days, you should seek medical advice in time to avoid delay in the disease.
2. Eye congestion and increased secretion
Early keratitis usually leads to eye congestion and increased secretion. When the cornea is infected or damaged, the blood vessels of the eye will expand, making the white of the eye turn red. In addition, inflammation can also lead to an increase in eye secretions, often with eye droppings adhering to the eyelids, and even affect vision.
If you find that your eyes suddenly become red or there is a lot of eye droppings, you should go to a doctor in time to check whether it is caused by keratitis.
3. Blurred vision and light sensitivity
Patients with early keratitis often have blurred vision and photosensitive symptoms. Because of the inflammation of the cornea, the surface becomes unsmooth, and the light will scatter when it passes through the cornea, resulting in blurred vision. At the same time, inflammation will also stimulate the eye nerve, making the eyeball allergic to light, causing glare and tingling.
If you find your vision drops sharply, blurred, and you feel eye pain under strong light, you should go to a regular eye hospital for inspection in time to determine whether it is a visual problem caused by keratitis.
4. Tear disorders and foreign body sensation
Early keratitis may lead to the imbalance of tear secretion and the sensation of foreign bodies entering the eyes. Inflammation affects the secretion and excretion of tears, leading to dry eyes. At the same time, due to eye discomfort caused by keratitis, there may be foreign body sensation, that is, there may be sand or foreign body stimulation in the eyes.
If you feel dry eyes, often have a foreign body feeling or tingling feeling, and this feeling lasts for a long time, you should seek medical advice in time for doctors to check and treat.
Summary
The early symptoms of Xi'an ophthalmic keratitis mainly include eye pain and burning sensation, eye congestion and increased secretion, blurred vision and light sensitivity, as well as tear imbalance and foreign body sensation. Early detection and timely treatment of early keratitis is very important to avoid deterioration of the condition and eventually lead to visual impairment. If you have the above symptoms, you should go to a doctor in time for professional eye examination and treatment.
