Treatment for eye pain like needle pricking should be based on the cause of the disease. If it is transient and there is no eye congestion or decreased vision, it is considered to be caused by dry eyes or visual fatigue. A doctor can prescribe some eye drops to alleviate the symptoms. If the pain like needle pricking is particularly obvious and accompanied by conjunctival hyperemia, it may be caused by corneal layer damage and medical attention should be sought as soon as possible. The doctor will treat it according to the situation.
What should I do if my eyes hurt like needle pricking? 1. If a foreign object enters the eye, such as a fallen eyelash, conjunctival calculus, or a foreign object blown into the eye by strong wind, you should go to the ophthalmology department for consultation immediately. The doctor will remove the foreign object in the eye based on slit lamp examination, and then the sensation of the foreign object will subside. 2. After detailed examination, there is no foreign object in the eye causing a needle-like sensation, but follicles and papilla hyperplasia can be seen on the conjunctival surface, which indicates a change in chronic conjunctivitis.
Why do my eyes hurt like needle pricking? 1. It is caused by entropion and trichiasis, where the eyelashes stab the cornea. As the eyeball rotates and the eyelids close and open, the eyelashes can scratch the corneal epithelium, causing stinging sensation in the eyes. 2. It is caused by foreign objects such as sand entering the eyes, causing obvious eye friction and stinging sensation. 3. It is caused by keratitis, which can be caused by viral, bacterial, fungal infections, and Acanthamoeba protozoan infections, all of which can lead to corneal inflammation and cause eye stinging.
