After giving birth, all women can think of is postpartum problems such as "out of shape", "memory loss", "postpartum depression", etc., but have you considered: after giving birth, will your eyesight also be affected?
After giving birth to her second child, Her mother's eyesight dropped to the point where she could not accept it
Xiao Ai has been giving birth to her second child for almost a year, and in recent times she always feels that what she watches is very blurry, even sitting on the sofa watching TV can not see the subtitles, Xiao Ai feels that it may be that his myopia has increased again, so he went to the optical shop to re-wear a pair of glasses.
After some testing, Xiao Ai found that the degree of myopia in his two eyes increased by more than 100 degrees, Xiao Ai couldn't believe it, he didn't have to pick up the lamp and read hard like when he was in school, how could his vision decline so quickly?
After some communication with the optometrist, Xiao Ai seemed to find the reason for his vision decline. Optometrists say many postpartum mothers have had similar problems.
Giving birth to a baby will not only affect the body, but also affect the vision
1) Changes in hormone levels may alter bodily functions
Studies have found that some pregnant women do have changes in myopia during pregnancy or after childbirth. The more you reach the end of pregnancy, the more obvious this situation becomes.
This change is often due to a change in hormone levels in a woman's body after pregnancy, and her bodily functions change with it.
The change of hormones will cause the female body to appear puffy symptoms, and even the cornea will be edematous, and the thickness of the cornea will increase, which will lead to blurred viewing.
2) Too much force during the birth of a baby will damage the cornea of the eye
One of the main reasons for postpartum vision loss and blurred viewing is because of too much force during childbirth. When women give birth, especially mothers who give birth to normal births, they naturally need to work with the midwives, and in this process, if they use too much force, then they will make the cornea congested.
However, congestion is normal and will slowly improve over time, and generally the mother's vision will be restored after a period of postpartum. However, the timing and circumstances of recovery will also be determined by the physical fitness of the individual.
3) Do not get enough rest after childbirth
In addition, in addition to retinal congestion, the baby's vision loss after giving birth is also related to the postpartum mother taking care of the baby and not getting rest. After childbirth, the mother's body will be in a state of "qi and blood loss", which will have a great impact on vision.
In the process of taking care of the baby after childbirth, there is no stable night, outdoor activities are also greatly reduced, and every day is faced with the baby's eating and drinking, so that tired days will also affect vision, resulting in a decline in vision.
Whether it is during pregnancy or after childbirth, the change in vision is too large to be taken lightly
In general, under the influence of hormone levels during pregnancy and after childbirth, vision is only slightly changed, and this condition will slowly improve.
However, if the vision changes too much, then it is necessary to be vigilant, which is likely to be due to some eye diseases caused by vision loss, this situation can not be taken lightly, should be timely to the hospital ophthalmology for diagnostic detailed examination.
To summarize a few methods of eye protection:
1. Usually pay attention to eye hygiene, do not touch the eyes with hands or unclean tissues; especially after childbirth mothers, pay more attention to rest, avoid excessive use of the eyes, and look at the distance appropriately; 2. Eat more eye-protective foods in your diet, such as carrots, soybeans, sweet potatoes, nuts, etc.; If long-term vision loss does not improve, it is best to consult a doctor to check whether it is caused by some disease.
Kojima would like to say:
After pregnancy and childbirth, there will indeed be some mothers who have blurred things and aggravated myopia, but it is not that it will cause myopia after pregnancy, otherwise those pregnant mothers are not all myopia patients?
In fact, pregnancy and vision loss is not decisive, but has a certain impact, but the mother can not ignore too much, if the vision really appears to decline rapidly, serious blurring, and even in the case of greater visual impairment, it is still necessary to seek medical treatment as soon as possible.
