Young and middle-aged people with smaller and darker vision in one eye should be careful of “mid-pulp”

Some young people suddenly find that they can see smaller or darker in one eye, and their vision is also somewhat reduced. What is the cause of the disease? And how to treat it? The following we will explain one by one, revealing the secret of the “middle pulp”! 1.What will I feel when I get “mid-pulp”? The main thing is that suddenly the vision becomes smaller and darker, and some people see things distorted. At the same time, there can be vision loss, the severity of which varies. 2.What kind of examination should I have if I have “mid-pulp”? Ophthalmologic examination: visual acuity, intraocular pressure, slit lamp ophthalmoscopy, fundus fluorescence angiography, OCT (optical correlation tomography), to determine whether it is a “middle pulp” disease. The size, location and severity of the lesion will be determined to determine the treatment plan. 3.What is “mesoplasm” all about? “It is mainly caused by the loss of retinal pigment epithelium and impaired barrier function, resulting in the detachment of retinal pigment epithelium or neuroepithelium. The main cause of the disease is monocular disease. It is prone to recurrence and has a self-limiting tendency. 4. Q: Why do you get “mesoplasia”? A: The specific cause of “mesoplasm” is unclear and may be the result of multiple factors. Its onset is related to age, gender, climate and circumstance (such as viral infection, mental stress, pregnancy, organ transplantation, renal failure, cold, hepatitis). In addition, research has found that people with type A personality have sympathetic nervousness, are prone to mood swings, have high catecholamines in the blood circulation, and are prone to “mid-pulp”, but most patients cannot identify the specific cause. 5.Q: How to treat the “middle pulp”? A: First of all, remove the triggers of systemic pathogenesis, quit smoking and alcohol, avoid overwork and mental tension. Next is the drug treatment, most patients in about 6 weeks to improve or recovery. If they have not recovered and become chronic for more than six months, laser treatment can be considered. In the past, it was treated with ordinary fundus laser, but now there is a better PDT treatment that does not damage the macular function. The latest treatment can be done by vitreous cavity anti-VEGF drug injection, which has good effect. 6. Q: How is the treatment effect of “medium pulp”? A: “Middle pulp” is a self-limiting disease, most patients can heal themselves without any treatment within 3-6 months, and their central vision can be completely restored to normal. For patients with long duration and multiple relapses, there can be mild to moderate vision loss, even visual distortion does not fade, and visual function cannot be completely restored to normal. Most patients recover better after treatment, the key is early diagnosis and early intervention. 7.Q: What should I pay attention to in my life and work if I have “medium pulp”? A: Patients with “medium pulp” should pay attention to personal rest, ensure the quality of sleep, relax, relieve stress, should not be too fatigued, develop good habits, quit smoking and alcohol, etc. ‍
