May 11th, 2012 admin

Women love to wear make-ups very much, even every day. But do you know that some cosmetics may do harm to eye health? What’s worse, some eye diseases just result from the make-ups. Following are some examples.

1. Corneal Fungal Diseases

Some experts found out after sample navigations that eyelash pens are polluted with fusarium solani. Before an eyelash pen is used, the contamination rate is only 1.5%, while the rate rises to 60% sharply during the use. This kind of fusarium solani can easily cause the corneal fungal diseases.

2. Corneal Burns

Perm lotion is a kind of cosmetics that have strong alkaline. While in use, if the perm lotion is spilled into the eyes by accident, the cornea may get burned if not severe. What’s worse, it may cause ocular atrophy, corneal opacity, and even induced cataracts and other eye diseases.

3. Conjunctivitis

Some dusts in the cosmetics may fall into the eyes, causing the symptoms of eye irritation, redness, pain, photophobia, tearing and is very likely to lead to allergic conjunctivitis.

4. Conjunctival Staining

Women should take care when using color cosmetics, such as rouge, lipstick, eyebrow pencil, perfume, etc. Be sure not to let these cosmetics enter the eyes, otherwise the conjunctiva gets dyed to yellow or your eyes may have pigmentation.

Fashion and beauty are important to girls, but do keep in mind that eye health is more significant. Remember to take off the make-ups entirely before going to bed.

If children wear the wrong eyeglasses, they may squint to watch the objects, which may cause eye fatigue and worsen the vision.

2. Pay Attention to Eye Health

High myopia patients have problems with seeing the objects far away. They love reading books and overusing the eyes for a long time. As a result, high myopia children should pay more attention to the time spent in reading, proper reading environment and gesture.

In this case, liquefied vitreous will go into the retina, forming the retinal detachment. If high myopia patients have the symptoms of eyes flash, the shadow zooplankton, decreased visual acuity, visual distortion, and so on, it may be the hints of retinal detachment. Hurry treatment is necessary then.

However, proper among of exercises contribute to improving health, which also helps prevent the progression of myopia and complications aggravated.
