Ask the Eye Doctor: How COVID-19 can affect your eye health?

    December 20, 2021 3246 Views

COVID-19 pandemics have changed many things. Most importantly, the way we take care of our health. It’s imperative to follow all the necessary measures given by the doctor, to prevent the spread of COVID-19 around the globe. Many people are concerned about eye health. So, ‘How exactly can the COVID infection cause trouble for the eyes?’

Important NOTE!

In case you notice any problem with your eyes then better get medical assistance on time. As you do not delay it, it might prevent the need of getting emergency Eyelid Surgery in Phagwara. It’s always about following the preventive measures and following all the necessary suggestions given by the doctor.

Expert suggestion

  • If I clean my eyes regularly and use eye drops will it decrease the chances of infection?

Naturally, the eyes get their lubrication. On the other hand, when you do eye cleaning regularly then it will strip down the ocular surface which acts as a protective barrier. Only when your eyes get irritated or teared up then you should consult the doctor.

Bear in mind, if you already have an eye problem then be regular for your doctor’s appointment. As you do so, the doctor can better point out the severity of the condition. Additionally, if any Eyelid Surgery in Punjab is needed, you will be given the treatment plan accordingly.

  • Is it true contact wearers are at high risk of getting COVID-19 infection?

If you follow all the necessary hygiene tips, then it is going to reduce the risk of infection spread. If you touch your lens too often, then make sure to wash your hands as often as you can. It’s imperative to follow all the necessary hygiene tips so that your eyes do not develop irritation or redness.

  • Is it true pink eyes are one of the first signs of COVID-19?

YES! As per the reports, those contracted with COVID-19 are noted to have pink eyes. Moreover, around 1/3rd of the patients have reported getting hospitalized due to ocular issues. If you notice any sort of issue, then better seek medical assistance on time.

  • Can COVID-19 affect the eyes permanently or temporarily?

Conjunctivitis and COVID-19 have been shown to have temporary issues. Moreover, there have been reports showing COVID-19 can lead to permanent eye damage. One of the major reasons behind eye damage is declining oxygen levels.

  • Is it true COVID-19 can spread through the tear droplets?

Well! This topic is slightly controversial. Till now there has been a small number of cases for the same. If we talk about the viral particles then the risk is slightly on the lower side.

Discuss the medication and eye care treatment plan

It’s imperative to discuss what sort of medication change is needed. If you have trouble then what’s the point in waiting for a long time. You have to be prompt with your decision and do as to what your eye doctor tells you.
