Eye damage and treatment of welding operation

1. When welding, the electric eye caused by electric light ophthalmia is due to the eye of the corneal epithelial cells and conjunctiva to absorb a large number of strong ultraviolet radiation caused by acute inflammation, by long time in the ice, desert, salt pan, broad surface operations, without protection when walking Caused by the glasses, or the sun, ultraviolet light and other intense ultraviolet radiation caused.
Second, the main disease incubation period of 6 to 8 hours, two sudden burning sensation and severe pain, with photophobia, tearing, eyelid, headache, eyelid and facial skin flushing and burning sensation, ocular conjunctival hyperemia, edema.
Third, the treatment of this disease is the key to treatment of pain, sedation and anti-infection. 1. Cold eyes, instruct patients to close their eyes and apply cold water towels to the eyes. 2. With fresh human milk eye drops, each eye drops 3 to 5 drops, do not immediately blink after dripping milk, close eyes for 3 to 5 minutes, once every 2 hours. 3. Local selection and chloramphenicol eye drops, erythromycin eye ointment and other eye drops to prevent infection.
IV. Precautions Human milk, eye drops and eye ointment should not be instilled at the same time. There should be a slight interval. Colored glasses should be worn during treatment. The key to electro-optic ophthalmia is still to prevent, welding workers to follow the operating procedures, wear eye protection, most patients recover within 1 to 3 days after the onset, generally will not cause permanent damage, but do not be repeated or prolonged exposure to ultraviolet radiation So as not to cause chronic blepharitis.
5. Adhere to the principle of prevention. In order to effectively prevent damage to the eyes caused by welding operations, an automatic filter welding mask should be worn during operation.
