Why does not suffer from acute conjunctivitis eye cover

Acute conjunctivitis patients with conjunctival congestion, secretions and other performance, some patients have symptoms of photophobia can appear, which will cover the eyes up; some people also believe that will be covered up the eyes can make the eyes get better rest. In fact, this idea or approach is wrong. This is because, when the eye secretions increase, once covered the eyes together, stayed in conjunctival SAC makes secretions, and hinder the eye surface evaporation, resulting in the conjunctival SAC of elevated humidity but conducive to bacterial propagation. Secretion of cholestasis, conjunctival and corneal is a mechanical stimulus. Therefore, cover the eye would not make the eyes from the rest, it will increase symptoms of conjunctivitis, course extended.

Others think, eye inflammation, local hot compress can promote blood circulation, make inflammatory dissipated as soon as possible. Everyone knows, eye secretions for quite some time to do a hot compress, and about the role of covering the risk of eye is the same. Therefore, if acute conjunctivitis secretions for quite some time, do not cover the eye or eye hot compress. In addition, to conjunctival SAC coating ointment during the day, also produce and cover the eyes the same effect, and may also affect the absorption of eye drops in the conjunctival SAC. Therefore, the correct approach is fully exposed and patient eye, clean conjunctival SAC in a timely manner, avoiding secretions clustered; some eye drops during the day, before going to sleep at night eye cream coated if symptoms of photophobia obvious, wearing tinted glasses reduce stimulation.
