Some people’s eyes are sunken in, which may be a normal phenomenon without special treatment. It may also be related to trauma, isotonic dehydration, etc., and the patient needs to consult a doctor for medication or surgical treatment.
1. Normal phenomenon: with age, the gradual shrinkage of fat tissue behind the eyes may lead to sunken eyes, which is a normal physiological phenomenon and does not require special treatment. If it affects the aesthetics, hyaluronic acid filler or autologous fat filler can be used if necessary.
2. Trauma: eyeball or orbital trauma may cause some patients’ eyes to be sunken in, and those who are clearly caused by trauma need to consult a doctor for debridement and treatment, and can also apply anti-infective drugs such as cefixime, amoxicillin, etc. If it is caused by orbital fracture, it is feasible to treat it with hyaluronic acid filler if necessary. If it is caused by orbital fracture, orbital fracture fixation is feasible to improve the phenomenon of sunken eyes.
3. Isotonic dehydration: isotonic dehydration can also cause some patients with sunken eyes, usually the patient needs to be immediately transfused to prevent hypovolemic shock, in the intravenous input of 0.9% sodium chloride solution at the same time, but also supplemented with 5% or 10% dextrose solution. Some patients may also be rehydrated by drinking large amounts of water or by nasal feeding.
It is recommended that people with sunken eyes should consult a doctor for examination, and if it is clear that it is caused by a disease, then it can be treated according to the doctor’s instructions, and should not use medicines or prescriptions indiscriminately, so as not to aggravate the condition.
