Dry eyes after lenses, discomfort and pain can occur due to many reasons. In order to avoid any discomfort while wearing them, you should follow certain rules of hygiene and to make timely replacement lenses. If you do not pay due attention to their health, ultimately it will lead to serious problems.
Dry eye symptoms arising solely as a result of wearing contact lenses, the following:
- discomfort and slight impairment of vision appear only after five to six hours of lens wear;
- painting of the cornea;
- poor lens movement on the eye.
The discomfort can be so strong that the person refuses to wear lenses.
So, due to what is moisture eyes? Tear film. It plays a major role. With the right work, there is a complete coverage of the surface of the eye moisturizing lubricant that also helps cleanse the eye from foreign particles and dust. Tear film by its nature is heterogeneous and consists of several layers:
Lipid is the outer layer prevents excessive evaporation of the water layer;
The water layer. Is a big part of the film, constantly updated, delivering nutrients to the cornea and conjunctiva;
The mucin provides a sturdy connection of the tear film and the ocular surface.
If the products of all components of the tear film is continuous (the norm), or when wearing the lenses, in humans, as a rule, does not arise. But in the case of violations, discomfort provided.
Of course, pain in the eyes while wearing the lenses may occur when tear film works as expected. For eyes lenses are alien, they can disrupt the water layer, and this in turn can lead to dryness.
Many people who use lenses, can't imagine wearing them without AIDS.
To get rid of dry eyes will help moisturizing drops, which is very high. Important to choose those that are compatible with contact lenses, as they may differ significantly from the usual. Their main feature is that due to their composition, namely the content of the wetting agents, there is a deep nutrition of the eye tissue and hydration of the lenses. Some drops from eye dryness to a greater extent is aimed at moisturizing contact lenses.
One of the best eye drops are those which contain in its composition of sodium hyaluronate. It has a sufficiently viscous structure, which provides a more long-term effect of the droplets, and promotes a more prolonged period of rupture of the tear film. It is better that the drops do not contain preservatives because they can cause allergies.
Not less important correctly to pick up the lens itself. Many people think that if there is a dry eye, you should buy lenses with high moisture content. But this view is mistaken. These lenses lose much of this moisture upon the occurrence of certain weather conditions, and then begin to pick up the remaining water from the surface of the eye, thus further exacerbating the problem.
For the eyes, with dryness and smarting, better suited lenses made from silicone hydrogel. They perfectly absorb the oxygen that is so necessary for cornea, proper operation of the tear film.
If dry eye symptoms are not even using tools, you should immediately contact an ophthalmologist. In some cases, will require serious treatment and refusal to wear contact lenses, replacing them with sunglasses. Health is more important than the aesthetic side of the issue.
A problem such as dry eyes from lenses is a very common phenomenon, which requires special attention, because without good vision a person can not lead an active life. Properly fitted lenses and solution and support drops, will make life more comfortable, and wearing lenses invisible.
