When you have eye marks, you subconsciously flick your eyes, thinking it's harmless. However, some ophthalmologists point out that excessive blinking can deform the cornea and form a "cone cornea" (that is, the cornea protrudes like a lemon), which can lead to myopia. , astigmatism, and even blindness. People aged 10 to 40 are even more at risk. Allergies are a common cause of itchy eyes. Pay more attention to avoid allergens to reduce the chance of eye irritation.
Most people pop their eyes once in a while, and even small wounds can heal within a few minutes (of course it’s best not to pop your eyes!). However, if the wound is too large, too deep, or the injury is repeated, If the epithelial layer fails to heal properly, it may become a breeding ground for bacteria or microorganisms, increasing the risk of bacterial infection. If scarring occurs, vision may be impaired.
In addition, most patients who have a habit of eye-opening will also experience symptoms of eye itching, redness and swelling, excessive secretion (watery eyes/excessive eye glue) or dryness and stinging.
so! If you want to keep your eyes healthy, remember to wash your hands frequently and get rid of the bad habit of blinking your eyes to the left!
