Glaucoma is a blinding eye disease, if the patient does not get effective treatment, short is a few days, ten days, long is a few years, ten years, the affected eye will be blind.
Let's focus on this terrible disease that causes blindness.
Glaucoma is an eye disease in which the pressure inside the eyeball increases abnormally, exceeding the limit of what the eye can tolerate, resulting in damage to the optic nerve, visual field loss, vision loss, and even blindness.
Turning off the light to play mobile phone before going to bed is easy to cause glaucoma, because long-term use of the eyes in dim light, will cause the pupil dilated for a long time, blocking the circulation of liquid in the eye, easy to lead to the occurrence of glaucoma.
We live with all kinds of electronic devices, and many vision problems are becoming younger and younger.
Care for the eyes start small
March 6, 2023 is the 16th World Glaucoma Day. World Glaucoma Day is a global initiative sponsored by the World Glaucoma Federation and the World Federation of Glaucoma Patients.
At present, there are about 26 million glaucoma patients in China, among which about 5.67 million are caused by the disease, which is the largest number of glaucoma patients in the world.
According to the statistics of WHO, in 2020, the number of glaucoma patients in the world reached 76 million, resulting in low vision or blindness 6.9 million, and it is expected that the number of glaucoma patients in the world will reach 95.4 million in 2030 and 112 million in 2040.
Early prevention of vision problems
Multiple experiments have shown that
Lutein can reduce the oxidative intensity of eye protein, and the higher the intake, the lower the incidence of glaucoma. The antioxidant effect of lutein can prevent vision problems in the elderly to a certain extent.
Lutein also improves blood circulation around the eyes, which can help with dry eyes and other symptoms. Can reduce the incidence of vision problems in young people.
