Xiao Zhang is an IT practitioner. He stares at the computer for a long time during the day, and still keeps his mobile phone in his hand at night.
Some time ago, because he was tired from work, he lay in bed and looked at his mobile phone when he got home from get off work. When he fell asleep accidentally, the mobile phone fell from his hand and hit his eyes.
At the moment, he only felt dark shadows fluttering in his eyes, but his vision was not affected, so he didn’t care. Unexpectedly, after two days, his vision continued to decline, and finally he could barely see. He panicked and rushed to the Xiamen Eye Center for treatment.
The doctor’s examination found that Xiaozhang has more than 600 degrees of myopia in both eyes, and the smashed eye has developed rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, which is in urgent need of surgical treatment. Fortunately, the operation went well, and Xiao Zhang preserved his existing vision.
Why does retinal detachment occur?
The doctor introduced that retinal detachment is generally divided into rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, exudative retinal detachment and traction retinal detachment. The retina is generally strong and will not be detached inexplicably, but for patients with high myopia, the probability of detachment is much higher than that of normal people.
“The eyeball of patients with high myopia will be enlarged. At this time, the vitreous body is prone to liquefaction, and the surrounding omentum is easy to form a hole, which causes the liquid to accumulate under the omentum and cause retinal detachment.” The doctor explained. In addition, patients with hypertension and vasculitis are prone to exudative retinal detachment, underlying diseases or repeated inflammation, and retinal hemorrhage, which can easily cause traction retinal detachment. Trauma is also an important factor in causing retinal detachment.
Reminder: Beware of these eye diseases
In the digital age, all kinds of electronic products are overwhelming, and people spend more and more time with their eyes.
Doctor reminds
No matter what posture
Long time playing with mobile phone is harmful to the eyes
Therefore, it is not necessary Use your cell phone as little as possible. In particular, patients with high myopia should not be careless. While preventing the risk of retinal detachment, they should also be alert to various eye diseases.
“Try not to play with mobile phones in dark places.” The doctor reminded that in addition to dry eye syndrome and visual fatigue, long-term mobile phone use should also be alert to glaucoma, and in a dim environment, people’s pupils become larger, The accumulation of the angle of the iris may cause the blockage of the angle of the chamber. If you have structural problems in the eye, you are at risk of angle-closure glaucoma, which increases the possibility of developing glaucoma. If you do need to use the phone for a long time, it is best to give your eyes a break every 30 minutes.
In addition, have regular eye exams every year.
