1. Apply a hot towel to the eyes for 10 minutes

Expert reminder: Hot compresses can promote blood circulation in the eyes and help restore the function of the meibomian glands, preventing dry eyes caused by meibomian gland dysfunction.

2. Use eye drops

Expert reminder: Whether eye drops can moisturize the eyes depends on two factors: the ingredients of the drops and the frequency of use. Certain ingredients in eye drops may not be suitable for healthy eyes, and if there is an eye condition, targeted treatment is needed. Using the right eye drops too frequently may also harm the eyes.

3. Regularly drink Oolong tea or Tieguanyin

Expert reminder: Tea is rich in carotene, which converts into vitamin A in the body. Vitamin A is beneficial for those frequently exposed to computers, as it not only reduces the harm of computer radiation but also helps prevent dry eye syndrome.

4. Yawn or suck on sour plums

Expert reminder: While yawning to produce tears and moisturize the eyes is feasible, it’s not something you can do at will. Some people report that sucking on sour plums to stimulate tears is a good alternative.

5. Eye exercises

Expert reminder: These can promote blood circulation in the eyes and reduce eye fatigue.

6. Apply eye cream

Expert reminder: Not all eye creams can moisturize the eyes. Some low-quality or specially formulated eye creams may even irritate the eyes. Pay attention to the ingredients of the eye cream and avoid using it indiscriminately.

7. Rinse eyes with warm water

Expert reminder: Ensure the water is clean, as unclean water may cause eye diseases.
