What is the reason for eye mucus

People cannot see their own faces; they can only present them to others every day. It is important to leave a good impression on others, so facial cleanliness is very important. For women who love beauty, in addition to cleaning their face, they also need to put on a delicate makeup. However, human eyes often have eye mucus, which seriously affects the beauty of the face. So why does eye boogers appear? Generally speaking, eye mucus is a secretion of the eyes, which will be secreted when the eyes do not get enough rest or are overly tired.

Eye secretions, commonly known as eye boogers, are closely related to many eye diseases. Therefore, by observing eye secretions, people can help detect certain eye diseases at an early stage. This is especially important for newborns, children and people who wear contact lenses. When certain diseases occur in the eyes, the amount or nature of eye secretions will change. Usually, people notice a significant increase in secretions and feel a series of discomforts, such as difficulty opening their eyes in the morning and blurred vision. At this time, in addition to the above-mentioned components, the secretions will contain more shed tissue cells, inflammatory cells, vascular exudates, pathogens, etc.

How to prevent excessive eye mucus

Choose eye drops carefully. If you have eye discomfort, you can usually improve it through self-regulation or with some medication. Here we would like to remind everyone to pay attention to the choice of eye drops. Many eye drops contain ingredients such as borneol and mint, which can make the eyes feel comfortable for a short period of time, but they have little actual therapeutic effect. If you are not clear about the actual ingredients of some eye drops, it is best not to use them lightly to avoid adverse consequences. In addition, if the symptoms of eye discomfort are obvious, seek medical attention as soon as possible to avoid missing the best treatment time and causing lifelong regrets.

To protect your eyes in the office and prevent office eye diseases, you should pay attention to the combination of work and rest. Try not to use your eyes for a long time with high intensity. You can take a short break after working for more than an hour. You can also choose medicines such as methyl cellulose and artificial tears to replenish eye moisture and keep your eyes moist. When using a computer, it is best not to get too close to the screen. It is best to keep a distance of more than 30 cm. At the same time, try to blink more often to avoid exposing your eyes too much to the air to reduce the evaporation of moisture in the eyes.

Pay attention to the office environment, air-conditioning temperature and ventilation. You can also place some green plants, which can not only promote the improvement of air quality and keep the air moist, but also allow your eyes to get some rest when they are tired.

1. Origin of secretion: Eye secretion is a mild infectious disease of the eye. One is that it may be due to contact with vaginal secretions containing bacteria during delivery, the contaminated hands of the midwife, or the unclean supplies that the baby comes into contact with after delivery, which may cause the child's conjunctiva to become inflamed, resulting in excessive and sticky eye mucus in the baby. Secondly, some children's nasolacrimal ducts are blocked by epithelial cell residues or occluded by the nasolacrimal duct mucosa, causing tears and secretions in the tear duct to accumulate in the lacrimal sac and cause dacryocystitis. Such children have a cystic tumor in the lacrimal sac with a slightly bluish surface. If you gently press the lacrimal sac on the inside of the eye, mucous or mucous secretions will overflow and the tumor will disappear.

2. Care: For children with a lot of eye mucus and conjunctival congestion, new mothers can use cotton wool dipped in warm water to clean the baby's eyes twice a day, gently wiping from the inner corner of the eye to the outer corner of the eye, and use a piece of cotton wool for each eye.

3. Medical advice: If your baby’s eyelashes stick together after waking up two days after birth, or there is pus in the inner corner of the eye, or the nasolacrimal duct is blocked or dacryocystitis occurs, you should see a doctor as soon as possible.
