Dry eyes

Dry eyes Tears play a crucial role in keeping our eyes moist, ensuring clear vision by letting light effectively pass through the eye's lens, and supplying oxygen to nourish the eye. They also help fend off infections and keep foreign substances at bay.   Now, when it comes to dry eyes, it's a pretty common issue that can stem from abnormal tear production or tears evaporating too quickly. This can lead to discomfort, irritation, that feeling like there's something foreign in your eye, redness, pain, blurry vision that gets better with blinking, or even feeling like your eyes are tired and heavy. What causes dry eyes can vary—getting older, being a woman (yeah, we're more prone to it), certain allergy medications, spending loads of time on screens, being in places with dust and smoke, gusty winds, and bright lights, they can all have a hand in it.   But hey, the good news is there are ways to tackle dry eyes:   Keep away from things that can make it worse, like strong winds and dust, by popping on some sunglasses and protecting those peepers. Remember to take breaks or blink more often, especially when you're glued to screens for a while. You've got these cool eye drops called artificial tears. There's a type for daytime (more watery) and nighttime (a bit thicker). Which one to use depends on how serious your dry eye situation is. Sometimes your doc might suggest special eye drops that encourage your eyes to make more tears. Give your eyes a treat with warm, clean cloths over your closed eyelids to help them feel better. If the dry eye struggle is real and isn't improving, it's wise to chat with an eye doctor.   All in all, dry eyes can be a bother, but there are solutions out there. It's important to take good care of your eyes, especially when it's all dry outside. If you suspect you've got dry eyes, having a chat with an eye care expert is a smart move.

Understanding Pterygium: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options

How people notice and see Pterygium without knowing it is Pterygium Have you ever looked in the mirror and noticed a small, fleshy growth on the white part of your eye, usually near the nose? It might appear slightly red, or you might feel like something’s stuck in your eye. This growth can slowly creep onto the clear, center part of your eye, known as the cornea, causing discomfort, dryness, or even blurred vision. Many people mistake these signs for simple irritation, dryness, or tired eyes, unaware that they might be dealing with a condition called pterygium. 1. What is Pterygium? Pterygium (pronounced tuh-RIJ-ee-um) is a common eye condition that looks like a triangular or wedge-shaped growth on the eye’s surface. It usually starts small but can slowly expand toward the cornea. Though it might look concerning, it’s not cancerous. For some, it’s just a minor cosmetic issue, but for others, it can cause vision problems or significant discomfort. Pinguecula and pterygium are often mistaken for each other. Pinguecula is a yellowish bump on the conjunctiva, while pterygium extends onto the cornea and can affect vision. Proper diagnosis is key. 2. Why does it happen? Pterygium happens mainly due to long-term exposure to UV light from the sun, which is why it’s often called "surfer’s eye." But you don’t have to be a surfer to get it - anyone who spends a lot of time outdoors, especially without proper eye protection, is at risk. Dust, wind, and dry environments can also irritate the eye and contribute to its development. Genetics can play a part, too, as pterygium is more common in certain families. 3. What to do when you notice it? If you spot a growth on your eye or feel persistent discomfort, dryness, or redness, don’t ignore it. Make an appointment with an eye specialist, especially if it’s growing or starting to affect your vision. The doctor can diagnose pterygium with a simple eye exam and discuss whether it needs to be treated right away or monitored over time. 4. Treatment Options ✅Observation and Protection: In mild cases, protecting your eyes from the sun with sunglasses and using lubricating eye drops can help keep symptoms in check. ✅Medication: If the pterygium becomes red and inflamed, doctors may prescribe anti-inflammatory eye drops to reduce irritation.  ✅Surgery: When pterygium grows too large, affects vision, or causes significant discomfort, surgery to remove the growth may be recommended. This involves removing the tissue and often placing a graft (a small piece of your own conjunctiva) to cover the area and reduce the chance of it coming back. 5. Advice from Bangkok Eye Hospital and Next Steps At Bangkok Eye Hospital, our experienced ophthalmologists often see patients who are unsure what’s causing their eye discomfort or unusual growths. It’s essential to address these concerns early to avoid complications. If surgery is necessary, one of the best innovations available today is using fibrin glue during pterygium surgery, which offers many benefits over traditional stitches. To learn more about how fibrin glue can improve your recovery and comfort, check out our next article on this advanced treatment here. If you’re experiencing symptoms or want a consultation, don’t hesitate to reach out to Bangkok Eye Hospital - our team is here to guide you through every step of your eye care journey.
