Diet therapy for dry eyes when waking up in the morning

I used to have dry eyes when I woke up in the morning. It wasn't serious at first, but later it lasted for almost half a day. I tried a lot of medicines but they didn't work. I tried some dietary therapy and the results were good. Recently, I saw similar situations among friends around me, so I wanted to share some of my little methods with you.

It may be due to improper cleaning or prolonged use of the computer, which can cause dry eyes and may also easily lead to some eye inflammations, such as keratitis, cyclitis, etc., which can easily cause damage to the eyes and cause edema.

1. Don’t drink too much water before going to bed; 2. Don’t use a pillow that is too low. If you already have swelling, you can use the following method to treat it: do eye exercises for a few minutes, look quickly to the left with both eyes ten times, and then to the right ten times at the same time. This can also make your eyes brighter. You can also drink some green tea, then put the wet tea bag in the refrigerator, take it out every morning and put it on your eyes for 5 minutes, which is also very effective.

People with eye fatigue should pay attention to the balance of diet and nutrition, and eat more coarse grains, whole grains, red and green vegetables, potatoes, beans, fruits and other foods containing vitamins, protein and fiber. Now I would like to introduce to you two proven dietary recipes for dry eyes for your reference.

1. Black beans, walnuts and milk:

[Ingredients] 1 spoon of black bean powder, 1 spoon of walnut kernel paste, 1 packet of milk, 1 spoon of honey.

[Preparation] Fry 500 grams of black beans, let cool, and grind into powder. 500 grams of walnut kernels, fry until slightly charred, remove the skin, and mash into a paste after cooling. Take 1 spoon of each of the above two foods, mix into 1 cup of boiled milk and add 1 spoon of honey, take it every morning or after breakfast, or take it with breakfast.

[Effects] Black beans are rich in protein and vitamin B1, and have high nutritional value. Because black foods enter the kidneys, they can increase the kidney-tonifying power when combined with walnut kernels. Add milk and honey, these foods contain more vitamin B1, calcium, phosphorus, etc., which can enhance the intraocular muscle strength, enhance the regulatory function, and improve the symptoms of eye fatigue.

2. Wolfberry and mulberry porridge

[Ingredients] 5 grams of wolfberry, 5 grams of mulberry, 5 grams of yam, 5 red dates, and 100 grams of polished rice.

[Preparation] Cook the above ingredients into porridge for consumption.

[Effects] The wolfberry and mulberry seeds in this recipe can nourish the liver and kidneys, while the yam and red dates can strengthen the spleen and stomach. If people with visual fatigue can take it twice a day, morning and evening, for a long time, it can not only eliminate the symptoms of eye fatigue, but also enhance physical fitness.

When we wake up in the morning with dry eyes, our first choice should not be to use medication. We can eat more foods that are good for the eyes, pay more attention to a balanced diet and nutritional supplements on a daily basis. In addition, we need to avoid staying up late, and don't look at mobile phones or computers for a long time, which can cause great damage to the eyes. I hope my answer is helpful to you, and I wish you good health.
