Not only the skin, but also the conjunctiva will age and relax! Miss Cai, 55 years old, has a successful career and is properly maintained. She is a beautiful witch that everyone envies. In recent years, she has been troubled by dry eye. Red blood silk often appears in the eyes, and jelly-like films even appear in the corners of the eyes, which makes the eyes dull for an instant. She was diagnosed as conjunctival laxity by internal medicine, but eye drops and conjunctival electrocautery operation still failed to improve. Jiang, director of the Department of Corneal Ophthalmology, Affiliated Hospital of Asian University, performed "conjunctival lifting surgery" for her and finally returned her bright eyes.

Tears pile up, lower eyelid margin, eyes are dull, so distressed.

Jiang pointed out that the conjunctiva is a transparent membrane covering the inner layers of the upper and lower eyelids and the sclera surface of the eyeball, while the inner vault of the lower eyelid is the place where tears are stored. With long-term blinking rubbing the conjunctiva, the collagen tissue under the conjunctiva is lost with age, and the originally flat conjunctiva becomes loose and accumulates on the edge of the lower eyelid, forming a transparent "jelly"-like object.

Jiang Junyi explained that these wrinkled tissues will make tears unevenly distributed on the eye surface, and the loose conjunctiva will accumulate in the lower eyelid, occupying the volume of tears and feeling dry; When blinking, the eyelids rub against the loose conjunctiva, which is also easy to cause damage to the cornea and conjunctiva, resulting in tingling and foreign body sensation, and even congestion and inflammation.

"Conjunctival lifting surgery" makes eyes firm and smooth again

Jiang explained that "conjunctival lifting" is to reset the relaxed conjunctiva and use amniotic tissue extracted from placenta as dressing for eye surface reconstruction to restore the firmness and smoothness of the eye surface. Through the rich growth factors and collagen tissue on amniotic membrane, it has anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenesis effects, effectively preventing the recurrence of conjunctival relaxation, greatly improving the postoperative appearance of patients, greatly increasing the brightness of white eyes and dark circles, and no longer being turbid.

Jiang reminded that the symptoms of conjunctival relaxation are similar to dry eye and conjunctivitis. If there is transparent tissue in the lower eyelid margin, accompanied by dry eye, foreign body sensation when blinking, frequent tears, repeated congestion and other symptoms have not been improved, you should seek medical examination as soon as possible to confirm whether there is conjunctival relaxation. After evaluation and appropriate treatment, you can get ideal recovery effect.
