Always eyelid jump, be careful of facial spasm. In patients with hemifacial spasm, the eyelids beat for a long time, making the muscles around the eyes in a tense state, and then causing muscle atrophy around the eyes.
The first obvious symptom of hemifacial spasm is eyelid skipping, but eyelid skipping is usually a common problem for many people, so it is often ignored. Huang Yue said that in patients with hemifacial spasm, the eyelids beat for a long time, making the muscles around the eyes in a tense state, and then causing the muscles around the eyes to atrophy. Therefore, it is not surprising that patients with hemifacial spasm have different eye sizes.
Many people feel uncomfortable because of eyelid skipping. Their first reaction must be to see an ophthalmologist in the hospital. Yes, director Hou Xiwu said: 'eyelid skipping may indicate a variety of chronic eye diseases. He said that eyelid skipping is likely to be caused by asthenopia and nerve fatigue. However, some people feel eyelid skipping from time to time due to chronic conjunctivitis, keratitis and other eye diseases. This is because inflammation stimulates conjunctival and corneal nerves, leading to their skipping reaction. This is a common disease in Ophthalmology, and it is easier to relieve. There is also a possibility that if the eyes are ametropic (including myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism), and do not wear glasses, it will also cause eyelid jump. "However, eyelid skipping may also be the compression of the facial trigeminal nerve, which may cause the spasm of the orbicularis oculi muscle. In severe cases, the patient may develop into facial spasm. I will directly suggest that the patient go to the neurology department for treatment. 'said Hou.
The two experts also mentioned that many people are tired and under great pressure because of their study and work, so most of them will encounter eyelid skipping. Moreover, most eyelid skipping is caused by emotional tension, anxiety or visual fatigue, so there is no need to worry too much about the symptoms of eyelid skipping.
