How to restore bulging eyes due to myopia

Whether for teenagers who are in the learning stage or for office workers who stare at computer screens all day, myopia has always been an eye health problem that cannot be ignored. Especially in recent years, with the surge in the number of thumb-wielding people, people are using mobile phones more and more frequently, resulting in many myopic patients. For some people, their eyeballs will bulge out noticeably after wearing glasses, but for others, this is not obvious.

1. There are generally two reasons for protruding eyeballs after myopia

1. One situation is caused by myopia itself.

2. Another situation is the visual illusion caused by wearing glasses.

2. Eyeball protrusion after myopia will also vary from person to person

Myopia itself will lengthen the axial distance of our eyes, which may make the eyeball convex. However, there is a certain amount of space in our eye sockets. After the axial length of the eye is elongated, if the space behind is large enough, it will appear that the eyeball does not bulge forward very obviously. But if the space in the eye socket is relatively small, after the axial length of the eye is elongated, it will appear that the eyeball bulges forward more obviously. This is also the reason why some people with myopia have prominent eyes, while for others, even if the degree of myopia is relatively high, it is not very obvious.

3. Visual appearance illusion

In addition to the fact that myopia itself can cause eye deformation, there is also a situation where it is just an illusion of visual appearance. Since myopia glasses are concave lenses, the eyes of people who wear glasses will appear smaller, and the feeling of their eyes being convex or concave will be reduced; when they take off the glasses, they will feel obviously enlarged, so the eyeballs will appear to be more convex than when they are wearing glasses. This is also the reason why many people feel that their eyes will become deformed after wearing glasses for a long time.

4. Can axial exophthalmos caused by myopia be alleviated?

Once the eyes protrude, it is difficult to retract them to their original state. There is generally no way to correct the already caused bulging eyes. The most effective remedy is to prevent myopia from getting worse. For example, you should correct bad eye habits, give your eyes more rest, don't stare at computers or mobile phones for a long time, and pay attention to looking into the distance from time to time to relax your eyes and combine work and rest.

5. What foods are good for your eyes?

1. Spinach

Spinach can prevent some eye diseases. A carotenoid called progesterone found in spinach may protect against cataracts and macular degeneration.

2. Vitamin C Fruits

Fruits rich in vitamin C such as kiwi, orange, wolfberry, etc. Vitamin C eliminates free radicals that can cause damage to the eyes.

3. Soy products

Soy products contain essential fatty acids that are beneficial to the eyes, phytoestrogens, vitamin E and natural anti-inflammatory agents. Soy products such as soy milk, soybeans, and soy cheese are good for eye health. Foods rich in vitamin E, such as olive oil and cereals, are also good for your eyes.
