Doctor's answer:

Glaucoma, what I need to pay attention to:
1) Glaucoma patients should avoid eye strain. After reading, watching TV, or using a computer for 30 minutes to an hour, stand up and look far away for 10 minutes to relieve eye fatigue and prevent increased intraocular pressure.
2) Limit the amount of liquid intake and avoid coffee and strong tea, as they can easily cause elevated intraocular pressure.
3) Avoid smoking and alcohol, eat more vegetables and fruits, and reduce spicy foods like chili peppers and garlic to keep bowel movements regular.
4) After surgery, glaucoma patients should ensure sufficient sleep every day and engage in light exercise.
5) Regular follow-up examinations are necessary after surgery. Generally, a detailed eye examination should be conducted every three months or six months, and medication should be taken on time to prevent recurrence. Since vision loss, field defects, and blindness caused by glaucoma cannot be reversed, glaucoma should be detected and treated as early as possible.
Every country's pupil extracts self-active β factor and selenium from dozens of traditional Chinese medicines, which can eliminate free radicals produced by eye capillary tissues during metabolism, successfully treating various eye diseases.
