What causes eye pain in children?

Eyes are very important to humans. They can lead us to observe and discover the world. Therefore, people cannot live without eyes. Why do children have eye pain? It may be due to long-term use of the eyes or bad eye habits, which leads to pain or dryness and discomfort. It may also be due to psychological factors. Why do I say this? Because mental health will have an impact on the body, and children's psychology is very fragile, and the emotions of people around them will also affect children's emotions. So, let’s talk about what causes eye pain in children.

The disease is generally divided into two types:

One is called the yin deficiency and blood deficiency type, and the other is called the dryness-heat damaging body fluid type. The clinical manifestations of dry eyes due to Yin deficiency and blood deficiency are: dry eyes with little fluid, sluggish and uncomfortable feeling, easy fatigue in vision, sallow complexion, pale nails, insomnia, frequent dreams, dizziness, tinnitus, dry throat and tongue, or fever in the five parts of the body, or low back pain and spermatorrhea, pale or red tongue, and a thin and rapid pulse. The main causes of the disease are: 1. Excessive use of eyes when reading, which can damage the blood;

2. Crying out of sorrow for a long time will deplete body fluids. 3. Worry and anxiety will damage the spleen and lead to insufficient source of metabolism. The diagnosis points of this disease are dry eyes with little fluid, stagnation and discomfort, and visual fatigue. It is also accompanied by dry throat and tongue, insomnia, frequent dreams, and a thin and rapid pulse. The treatment is suitable for nourishing blood, activating blood circulation, and nourishing liver and kidney.

The prescription can be the Siwu Wuzi Pills in "Shenshi Yaohan" (Plantago seed, Rubus idaeus, Lycium barbarum, Cuscuta seed, Kochia scoparia, Angelica sinensis, Rehmannia glutinosa, Ligusticum chuanxiong, White Peony Root), and the ready-made medicine can be the Qiju Dihuang Pills. The clinical manifestations of dry eyes due to dryness, heat and damage to body fluid are: dry and itchy eyes, hot and astringent eyes, dry cough with little sputum, dry mouth and nose, thirst, red tongue with little fluid, and rapid pulse.

This disease is mostly caused by the invasion of dryness and heat. Dryness is related to the lungs, which belong to the metal element in the Five Elements. The strong metal overcomes the wood. The eyes are the orifices of the liver and wood, and are easily invaded by the dryness. The treatment should be to clear away heat and moisten dryness. The prescription can be the Qingzao Jiufei Decoction in "Medical Law" with modifications (mulberry leaves, gypsum, licorice, American ginseng, sesame seeds, polygonatum, ophiopogon, loquat leaves, buddlejac). The ready-made medicine can use Yangyin Qingfei Paste.

After reading the above content, I believe everyone has a certain understanding of why children have eye pain. Children's eyes are particularly important. If they develop a disease accidentally, it will affect their lives. Therefore, both physically and mentally, parents should provide a relatively healthy environment for their children, and at the same time pay attention to controlling their emotions in front of their children. Finally, I hope all children grow up healthily!
