Eye-care cheats that pregnant mothers with glasses know
After pregnancy, many pregnant mothers who wear glasses may find that even the original comfortable daily disposable contact lenses become difficult to wear, and often feel uncomfortable, unable to wear for a long time, or even not at all. Why is there such a change? This has to start with the impact of pregnancy on the eyes! Generally speaking, the following changes will occur in the eyes of pregnant mothers during pregnancy: 1. The corneal thickness increases, and the more the corneal thickness increases at the end of pregnancy, the more obvious the corneal thickness increases; 2. Corneal sensitivity is reduced: it will affect the function of corneal reflex and eye protection, and this phenomenon can return to normal 6~8 weeks after delivery; 3. The degree of myopia may increase: pregnancy will cause the small blood vessels of the conjunctiva to spasm and contract, and the increase of the transparency of the lens to water will make the arc of the crystal steepen, and the myopia of the eyes will increase, making the original suitable contact lens become inaccurate and cause blurred vision; 4. The curvature of the cornea is somewhat changed: it is more obvious at the end of pregnancy, according to research reports, the curvature of the cornea will become steeper during pregnancy, which makes the refractive examination have a change of 0.25~1.25 diopters. A change in the curvature of the cornea can make it unsuitable to wear a suitable contact lens. Pregnant mothers should be cautious when wearing contact lenses Contact lens people have many problems during pregnancy. According to the data, about 30% of pregnant mothers have the problem of wearing contact lenses, and the most important problems are: 1. Dryness and foreign body sensation when wearing contact lenses; 2. Feeling that the mucus on the surface of the contact lens increases; 3. Unclear vision; 4. The wearing time is shorter than usual. In fact, these problems have a lot to do with the changes in the tear layer during pregnancy, the lack of moisture on the surface of the eyeball, and the influence of corneal thickness and curvature. Therefore, when wearing glasses, it is important to pay attention to the choice of contact lens brands and regular cleaning care, preferably with eyeglasses.
