What is the reason for dull eyes?

In daily life, people often say that eyes are the windows to a person's soul, and that a person's mental state and emotions can be seen from his eyes. However, this is not the case for some people. Some people's eyes are dull and lustrous. In general, Chinese medicine often believes that a person's liver dominates his eyes. If the liver qi is stagnant, it will cause the eyes to lack spirit. Therefore, it is very important to regulate the body for the eyes.

Eyelid shape

A person's eyelids also have a great influence on the spirit of the eyes. Some people have thick eyelids that can cover half of the eyeball under normal circumstances. When staying up late, the eyelids are heavier, giving people an obvious state of poor mental state and looking very dull. This kind of dullness is a normal phenomenon and has almost no impact on life.

Blood deficiency

Generally, dull and dry eyes are considered to be caused by the lack of nourishment to the eyes due to insufficient Qi, blood and kidney essence in the body. It is one of the symptoms of physical weakness. Common Qi deficiency, blood deficiency and kidney deficiency may all cause dull eyes.
