Wuhan Niu's Eye Hospital: How does keratitis need to be treated?
Keratitis refers to inflammation of the cornea. Common symptoms include redness, eye pain, photophobia, blurred vision, etc. There is a professional eye hospital in Wuhan, namely Wuhan Niu Eye Hospital. This article will elaborate on the treatment of keratitis from four aspects.
1. Diagnosis and evaluation
First of all, doctors need to make accurate diagnosis and evaluation before treating corneal inflammation. Wuhan Niu Eye Hospital has advanced ophthalmic equipment and a professional team of doctors, which can accurately determine the type and severity of keratitis. The diagnosis is usually made through medical history inquiry, vision test, intraocular pressure measurement, fundus examination, etc. In the evaluation process, doctors will also consider the patient's age, condition and individual differences to develop the best treatment plan.
In terms of treatment, according to the etiology of keratitis, it can be divided into bacterial, viral and allergic types. Bacterial keratitis can be treated with topical drugs such as eye drops and eye creams. Viral keratitis often uses antiviral drugs, while allergic keratitis usually requires comprehensive treatment such as allergen prevention and anti allergic drugs. Wuhan Niu's eye hospital will develop personalized treatment plans for patients according to their specific conditions.
2. Drug treatment
Drug treatment of keratitis is one of the common and effective methods. Depending on the cause and type of inflammation, doctors may prescribe different kinds of eye drops, eye ointment or oral medicine. Common eye drugs include antibiotic eye drops, antiviral eye drops, anti-inflammatory eye drugs, etc. These drugs can reduce the symptoms of eye inflammation, inhibit the growth of bacteria or viruses, and accelerate the regression of inflammation.
In drug treatment, patients need to use eye drugs correctly according to the doctor's advice. When using eye drops, follow the steps of cleaning hands and correct dropping points, and pay attention to the storage and validity of drugs. If the patient has other eye diseases or needs to use drugs for a long time, he should also inform the doctor in detail so as to adjust the treatment plan.
3. Avoid irritation and etiology
In the treatment of keratitis, attention should be paid to avoiding the effects of irritants and etiology. For bacterial keratitis, patients should avoid using expired cosmetics, eye shadow, contact lenses, etc. to avoid infection causing inflammation or aggravating existing inflammation.
For allergic keratitis, patients should try to avoid exposure to allergens, such as pollen, pet hair, perfume, etc. If necessary, patients can wear protective glasses or masks for protection. If the patient has myopia or other vision problems, they also need to wear matching glasses in time to reduce eye fatigue.
4. Regular reexamination and rehabilitation care
The treatment of keratitis requires the follow-up observation of doctors and the active cooperation of patients. After the cure, the patient also needs regular reexamination and rehabilitation care to ensure the stability and recovery of the condition. The doctor will make a review plan and follow up the patients regularly according to their conditions.
In terms of rehabilitation nursing, patients need to pay attention to eye hygiene and maintain good living habits and eating habits. At the same time, avoid frequent use of eye drugs and irritants, and pay attention to eye rest and relaxation. In case of abnormal conditions such as vision loss, eye pain and eye redness, seek medical advice in a timely manner.
To sum up, Wuhan Niu Eye Hospital has provided comprehensive treatment services for patients with keratitis. Through accurate diagnosis and assessment, drug treatment, avoiding irritation and etiology, regular reexamination and rehabilitation nursing can effectively alleviate symptoms, control inflammation and accelerate rehabilitation. I hope this article will be helpful to the patients with keratitis.
