Injury to the eyes

Wind-blown sand entering the eyes is the most common phenomenon in windy days. Every windy day, foreign bodies in the eyes are relatively increasing. Sand blows into your eyes, so don't rub it with your hands. It is easy to damage the delicate cornea and be ground out. Things will be blurred in the future. In addition, after the cornea is damaged, it is easy to cause eye diseases such as keratitis.

So what should we do? At ordinary times, our eyes are wet with tears and remain moist. Once the dust enters the eyes and the eyeballs are exposed to * * *, the tears will be secreted extra. When there are a lot of tears, we will blink our skin and usually wash the sand to the corner of our eyes. Then we can wipe it off with a clean handkerchief. We can also close our eyes, hold our eyelids with our hands and gently shake them up and down, so that the sand can be washed away smoothly by tears.

If this doesn't solve the problem, please ask others to open their eyelids, find the sand, wipe it gently with a cotton swab, or rinse it slowly with light salt and cold water. If it has stuck to the cornea, you have to go to the hospital and let the doctor find a way. Don't mess around.
