It’s not uncommon to wake up in the morning, rub your bleary eyes, and sometimes find a small amount of eye droppings. However, what you don’t know is that you can check whether you are sick or not through the eye droppings to determine the health status of your body. It’s amazing, but here’s how you can tell if you have an eye disease through your eye poop. Normal people also have “eye droppings” Normal people in the morning or morning face wash, will be found in the corner of the eye there is a very small amount of secretion, which is related to sleep at night when the eyelid movement is reduced, tear secretion is reduced, the discharge is delayed. Normal human eye secretions mainly come from the lacrimal gland, lid glands, mucus secreted by the ocular surface cells and the shedding of the ocular surface epithelial cells. Most of them are transparent or pale white, and are not easy to detect. As the amount of secretion is small and can be discharged from the tear duct in time, it will not cause eye discomfort. When certain diseases occur in the eye, the amount or character of ocular discharge may change. Often people observe a marked increase in discharge along with a range of discomforts, such as difficulty in opening the eyes in the morning, blurred vision, and so on. At this time, the composition of the secretion, in addition to the above, will contain more shed tissue cells, inflammatory cells, vascular exudate, pathogens and so on. There are 5 main categories of abnormal secretions According to the viscosity, color and other properties of secretions, they can be classified as watery, mucous, mucopurulent, purulent, bloody secretions and so on. The different nature of the secretion can help us initially determine the approximate nature of the eye disease, in order to take appropriate treatment measures. For example, aqueous discharge is a thin, slightly viscous, watery liquid, and the increase in this kind of discharge is often indicative of viral keratoconjunctivitis, early lacrimal obstruction, foreign bodies on the surface of the eye, and minor trauma. Children due to the bridge of the nose is not yet fully developed, some children may have inner canthus, accompanied by inverted eyelashes, often causing eye irritation symptoms, and increased aqueous discharge. Elderly people with abnormal eyelid position, such as entropion and ectropion, may also cause increased aqueous discharge.
