Is it true that left eye leaps to wealth and right eye leaps to disaster
4hw.com.cn: if you tell your friends or family that your eyelids have jumped, you will subconsciously ask whether it is the left eye or the right eye, because you all believe that the saying "left eye jumps the right eye jumps the disaster", is it true that the left eye jumps the right eye jumps the disaster? What reason is eyelid jump caused? Let's have a look.
Eyelid jumping: physiological and pathological
Eyelid beat is called palpebral tremor or blepharospasm in medicine. It is a kind of recurrent tremor and spasm caused by the disturbance of autonomic nerve and the influence of the fiber part of orbicularis oculi muscle.
Eyelid beat is divided into physiological and pathological two kinds. The former accounts for the vast majority, which is easy to appear when the eyes are excessively used or tired, the spirit is excessively tense, the pressure is too high, and the alcohol and tobacco are excessively used. The attack time is short (usually several seconds), and the beating degree is not serious.
Pathological eyelid beat can be caused by ametropia (myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, etc.), intraocular foreign bodies, trichiasis, conjunctivitis, keratitis, etc., with frequent onset, long duration and large beating range. Some people will twitch eyebrows, forehead, mouth corner and even half face together. In particular, 99% of the eyelid beat caused by facial muscle spasm is caused by the compression and stimulation of the facial nerve which controls the movement of the eyelid muscle by the abnormal intracranial blood vessels, and 1% is caused by the stimulation of the facial nerve by the intracranial tumor and arachnoid adhesion. Therefore, it is also considered as a symptom of brain diseases.
Causes of eyelid jump
1. Rest, lack of sleep, or anemia, excessive alcohol and tobacco.
2. Beat caused by eye diseases, such as myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, conjunctivitis and keratitis.
3. Pay more attention to rest, relax and keep a good attitude when jumping eyelids; at the same time, strengthen local hot compress, pay attention to observe whether the jumping eyelids are gradually reduced or increased, whether there is a downward expansion trend and from around the eyes to the mouth.

Prevention of eyelid jump
1. Get enough sleep
Adequate sleep can effectively solve the problem of eye fatigue, and has a very good effect on preventing eyelid jumping. If staying up late reading and playing games at night cause insufficient sleep, it is not conducive to the elimination of eye fatigue, or even cause damage.
In addition, too much pressure, emotional tension will reduce the secretion of tears, leading to eye fatigue. Therefore, we should pay attention to controlling our emotions and try to keep them calm.
2. Keep the air fresh and the humidity appropriate
The time of using computer or watching TV should not be too long, because these electronic products have great radiation, if the time is long, it is easy to cause dry and tired eyes. If the room is also dry, or the air is dirty due to smoking, it will cause more damage to the eyes.
3. UV protection
UV is the main cause of eye fatigue. Therefore, no matter how old you are in outdoor activities, you should wear sunglasses to prevent UV radiation to protect your eyes. Ultraviolet rays can penetrate ordinary glass, so when you are outdoors, you should avoid strong sunlight and wear sunglasses.
4. Pay attention to lighting and posture
When reading a book, the electric light should illuminate the whole room and the book, choose a non flashing desk lamp, keep the back straight, keep the distance between the eyes and the book at about 30cm; when watching TV, keep the distance from the TV at about 2m, with the line of sight slightly downward.
