The gore in the eyes can have varying degrees of intensity: it can be weak, almost imperceptible, or, on the contrary, intolerable. As a rule, it arises as a consequence of the development of pathological processes in the eye structures or anatomical structures located around the eye. Much less often there are cases when this symptom develops due to diseases of the nervous system that have an adverse effect on the visual apparatus. Factors that stimulate the development of cuttings:
- Dryness of the conjunctival eye membrane due to prolonged eye strain while working or playing on the PC, studying documents or reading books;
- Contact with alkalis, acids or other chemicals;
- Improper organization of the daily routine and, as a result, regular lack of sleep;
- Allergic reactions;
- Eye contact with foreign bodies;
- Wearing the wrong glasses or contact lenses.
In addition, there are a number of diseases in which redness and pain in the eye occurs. These include:
- conjunctivitis - inflammation of the mucous membrane of the eye, covering the inner surfaces of the eyelids and part of the eyeball;
- keratitis - inflammation of the cornea, characterized by the appearance of opacities on it;
- blepharitis - inflammation of the ciliary edges of the eyelids;
- uveitis - inflammatory processes affect the choroid;
- cornea ulcers - appear after injuries, burns, infection with fungi and viruses;
- trigeminal neuralgia is a chronic disease characterized by excruciating bouts of severe pain in the innervation area;
- any diseases of a viral or infectious nature that are not related to ophthalmology: influenza, ARVI, herpes, measles.
Gash in the eyes: symptoms
This condition rarely appears on its own. As a rule, this is a complex of clinical manifestations, which includes the following:
- redness of the conjunctiva;
- redness of the eye due to vasodilation;
- increased sensitivity to bright light;
- peeling of the skin of the eyelids;
- itching of varying intensity;
- lacrimation;
- purulent discharge;
- swelling;
- pain symptoms;
- redness covering the vitreous humor, and sometimes the iris;
- decreased visual acuity.
The correct definition of combinations of symptoms often allows a preliminary diagnosis and determination of further diagnostic studies. So, pain in the eye and lacrimation can be a sign of allergies, eye fatigue, acute respiratory viral infections, as well as inflammatory processes of the conjunctiva or ciliary edges of the eyelids.
Dryness and pain in the eyes can be a sign of usual fatigue or indicate that the patient has such ophthalmic diseases as keratitis, conjunctivitis or blepharitis, which require appropriate treatment.
Diagnosis of cramps in the eyes
Correct diagnostics plays an important role, since it allows you to identify the cause of the development of an unpleasant sensation and direct the efforts of the ophthalmologist to eliminate it. The Sphere Ophthalmology Clinic has all the necessary equipment for a comprehensive diagnosis of this symptom. It provides for the following:
- examination by a doctor, taking anamnesis;
- conducting research of the fundus, assessing the transparency of the eye structures - ophthalmoscopy;
- ultrasound examination of the eyes in different modes in order to identify violations and damage to the eye structures;
- IOP measurement using various techniques;
- determination of the state of the cornea - biomicroscopic studies;
- determination of the patency of the lacrimal passages - test Vesta;
- the study of scraping the eyelids;
- examination of the patient's visual fields.
If there are complaints of pressing pain in the anamnesis, the doctor may additionally prescribe magnetic resonance imaging of the brain or computed tomography, X-ray examination of the nasal sinuses.
Eye gore: treatment
Self-medication in this case is unacceptable. Pharmacological companies offer a wide range of eye drops, the choice of which should be made by an ophthalmologist after determining the cause of the disease. The wrong choice of funds can lead to a worsening of the situation and the development of complications. The main therapy may be as follows:
- For diseases of an inflammatory or infectious nature, antibiotic eye drops are used;
- In order to eliminate dry eyes, special moisturizing drops are used, which are also selected individually, based on the cause of dry eye syndrome;
- If a foreign body is found in the eyeball, its immediate elimination is carried out;
- After suffering traumatic eye injuries, if necessary, surgical intervention can be prescribed.
The most common remedy that allows you to eliminate cramps is "Tetracycline ointment". It can be used for infection, inflammation of the mucous membrane of the eye, after burns of the cornea or trauma.
Prevention of the development of cramps in the eyes
In order to exclude the development of this unpleasant symptom, you need to adhere to the following preventive measures:
- Wear properly selected lenses and provide appropriate care for them, and replace them on time;
- When carrying out work using chemicals, wear special protective goggles;
- Refuse to use low-quality or expired decorative cosmetics for the eyes;
- Minimize contact with potential allergens;
- Adhere to the correct daily regimen, get enough sleep;
- Correctly distribute the load on the eyes, do gymnastics for the eyes;
- Eat right and be active.
A gash in the eyes is a very unpleasant and painful sensation that causes considerable discomfort to a person. This symptom can appear for a number of reasons, among which there are both ophthalmic and other types. And the true root of the onset of unpleasant sensations must be identified as soon as possible in order to eliminate pain in the eyes, the causes and treatment of which will be discussed in detail in this article.
Symptoms
By itself, pain in the eyes does not occur and is often a sign of developing ophthalmic diseases. It can also be accompanied by:
- strong;
- tearing;
- vasodilation in the eyeball;
- deterioration in the quality of vision;
- pain.
Depending on the accompanying symptoms, the appearance of cramps can signal the onset of various diseases or injury to the eyes.
Table. Types of cramps in the eyes.
| Type of | short info |
|---|---|
| Typically, these sensations occur when there are problems with the production of the lacrimal fluid or the conjunctival membrane. Sometimes this type of pain is noted in those who constantly use contact lenses, but have not encountered the so-called dry eye syndrome. Also, a similar sensation can be caused by developing ophthalmic diseases such as conjunctivitis or blepharitis or the instillation of a number of drugs into the eyes. |
| If the pain is accompanied by severe lacrimation, then most likely the reason for its appearance is associated with the effect on the eyes. As an example, these are too hot or cold climatic conditions, smoke, bright and direct rays of the sun hitting the retina, or getting under the eyelids of various foreign bodies and irritating microparticles. Often, pain of this type occurs in those suffering from allergies, or with eye strain, during ARVI. |
On a note! If there is pain in the eyes, accompanied by a large number of tears, then, most likely, this is a natural reaction of the body and its attempt to remove a substance or any foreign body that has got there from the eye.
Sometimes pain in the eyes with profuse discharge of tears is a sign of age-related changes in the eyes. It's just that the tissues that hold the tears begin to gradually deteriorate, atrophy and are no longer able to cope with the functions assigned to them.
Main reasons
Also, all the reasons that can cause pain in the eyes can be divided into ophthalmic and others. Let's consider them in more detail.
Ophthalmic causes
Ophthalmic causes are those that are directly related to vision problems. Among them, the following can be distinguished, which often become the cause of the appearance of the cutting syndrome.
- ... With it, the indicators of the moisture level of the conjunctival membrane are violated. As a rule, it is noted in people that sit at the monitor of a laptop or computer for a long time. At the same time, they can both work for him and rest, but the effect on the eyes is constant. Less often, but nevertheless sometimes the syndrome occurs in people who like to watch TV or in people who actively use phones.
- ... It develops in the case of prolonged tension of the eyeballs.
- Long-term wearing of eyeglasses or contact lenses... In the latter case, the reason, most likely, lies in the incorrect selection of means to improve the clarity of the image, or even the impossibility of wearing them.
- Processes and diseases of any part of the eye associated with inflammation, as well as viral or infectious diseases.
As for inflammatory pathologies that cause pain in the eyes, they include keratitis, conjunctivitis of various etiologies, uveitis, cyclitis, blepharitis. As a rule, if the inflammation is localized in the anterior part of the eyeball, then the pain is accompanied by photophobia and severe tearing.
On a note! Acute conjunctivitis leads among all ophthalmic problems in terms of the incidence of cramps. Its pathogens are all kinds of microorganisms. Often, the disease is actively developing against the background of weakened immunity or violations of the rules of personal hygiene.
Foreign bodies (specks, eyelashes, grains of sand, etc.) caught in the eyes are also one of the most common causes of cramps. They irritate the membranes of the eyes and can injure the eyeball itself. They need to be removed as quickly as possible. As for chemicals that act on the eyes for a long or short time, they can also cause unbearable pain and even damage the organ of vision itself.
Other reasons
There are many reasons for the pain that are not directly related to the problems of the organs of vision. For example, it could be a serious allergic reaction to something. Moreover, any substance can be irritating. Often, the pain manifests itself against the background of infectious or viral diseases such as ARVI, influenza, herpes or measles.
Can cause pain demodicosis is an unpleasant disease caused by small mites that have settled in the eyelash area... In this case, "sand" will be clearly felt in the eyes, itching in the eyelash area, which is especially intensified when a person enters a warm room. And if we are talking about trigeminal neuralgia, then the appointment should not go to the ophthalmologist, but to the neurologist. But pain in the eyes can occur in this case.
Diagnostics
The exact cause of the appearance of cramps and other unpleasant sensations can only be identified by a doctor. Moreover, initially one should go to an ophthalmologist. The specialist will conduct a visual examination of the eye, and may also prescribe additional tests, up to donating blood and urine.
Treatment
In any case, before starting active treatment, you need to determine as accurately as possible the cause that caused the pain, since the principles of therapy can be very different. But in no case should the pain in the eyes be ignored.
In case of ongoing inflammatory processes, the optometrist will prescribe any eye drops that have an anti-inflammatory effect. Eye ointments that are placed behind the eyelid may also be useful.
In the event of microtraumas of the ocular surface (corneal trauma when putting on a contact lens, damaged lens, accumulation of protein deposits on the lens), which are accompanied only by the feeling that something has got into the eye, you should not neglect treatment, since the lack of treatment for microtraumas can lead to irritation and redness, which in turn can contribute to the development of complications (keratitis, keratoconjunctivitis, corneal ulcers), since damaged tissues are the gateway to infection.
As a rule, “artificial tear” preparations are prescribed by ophthalmologists. They work well with irritation and redness of the eyes, as well as symptoms such as dryness, stinging, gritty eyes. Thanks to components similar in composition to natural human tears, the drops moisturize well and prevent the upper layer of the eye from drying out. Contact a specialist ophthalmologist for the correct prescription of drops. In the absence of such an opportunity, you can always use proven means. For example, the following tools have worked well:
Cationorm- a unique cationic emulsion for moisturizing the eyes, which restores all three layers of the tear film, permanently eliminating pronounced, intense discomfort, aches and dryness of the eyes that appear throughout the day, even in the morning.
Cationorm prevents further development of dry eye syndrome, does not contain preservatives, it can be used in conjunction with contact lenses.
Cationorm is used for eye diseases such as glaucoma, blepharitis, allergic conjunctivitis.
Okutiars- eye drops with ultra-high molecular weight hyaluronic acid, effectively eliminate dryness, sting, and eye fatigue, usually manifested in the evening, after prolonged eye strain (for office workers, drivers, frequent flyers).
Ocutiars is very economical and has an excellent shelf life - 6 months after opening the bottle. Drops without preservatives can be instilled on contact lenses.
Ocutiars is often used to relieve discomfort after ophthalmic corneal surgery.
Oftagel- eye gel with carbomer in maximum concentration, which moisturizes for a long time, eliminates stinging and lacrimation and does not require frequent instillation, in addition, it can be used once at night if it is not possible to instill moisturizing drops during the day.
For the restoration of eye tissues, drugs with dexpanthenol, a substance with a regenerating effect, have proven themselves well. In particular, the eye gel "Korneregel" has a healing effect due to the maximum concentration of dexpanthenol 5% *, and the carbomer included in its composition, due to the viscous texture, prolongs the contact of dexpanthenol with the ocular surface.
Attention! If the pain is caused by a foreign body that has got into the eyes, then you can try to pull it out yourself. You can also try removing chemicals from the surface of the eyeball at home.
How to get a speck out of your eye
Weeds and other foreign bodies can cause severe pain in the eyes. We will try to figure out how to act correctly in this situation.
Step 1. First, you need to let the eye cry. Tears are a natural fluid produced in the body, and it often helps to cope with the problem that has arisen without the involvement of an ophthalmologist. During lacrimation, you also need to blink quickly - this will be the way to rinse your eyes.
Attention! You cannot rub, as a speck can scratch the shell of the eye, damage it.
Step 2. Further, it is recommended to try to determine the location of the foreign body. If tears do not help to wash it, then you need to open your eye wider and carefully examine it, identify the speck that interferes. It is required to explore the space under the eyelids well and, if necessary, ask someone for help to do this.
Step 3. Using the lower eyelashes, you can try to sweep the foreign body out of the eye. For this, the upper eyelid is pulled over the lower. When you succeed in doing this, you need to rotate the eye.
Step 4. You can try to remove the speck with a cotton swab. You need to act carefully, and the stick is pre-moistened with water. You can use a clean handkerchief instead of a cotton swab. If the speck is located on the cornea, then it cannot be removed with a cotton swab, since there is a high risk of injury to the eye.
Step 5. You can put some water or ophthalmic saline in a small bottle with a dropper and try to wash out the speck with them. The eye is carefully watered with liquids, only they should be at room temperature.
Step 6. If none of the methods helped, you need to see a doctor. It is recommended to cover the eye with a bandage. This measure will help protect it from sun exposure and other irritants.
Step 7. After removing the speck, the doctor may prescribe ointments or drops that relieve irritation. You need to use them strictly according to the instructions.
Prophylaxis
Preventive measures that help prevent the occurrence of cramps in the eyes include:
- wearing glasses in windy weather;
- thorough eye hygiene and
- doing exercises aimed at relaxing the eyes;
- compulsory rest;
- control of time spent at the computer;
- sun protection.

Sensation of "grit" in the eyes
Ophthalmologic specialists note that patients complain of a feeling of sand in their eyes. Conjunctivitis is the most common cause of these symptoms. No matter how much the eyes are washed with water, it is extremely problematic to achieve the desired effect. In addition to the listed signs, an increase in body temperature, redness in the eyelid area may join. It is urgent to determine the nature of the pain in the eyes, which can be fungal, viral and bacterial. Traditionally, a feeling of pain in the eyes is provoked by conjunctivitis, pathologies of the anterior parts of the eye, taking certain groups of medications, and diseases of the thyroid gland. With a burning sensation in the eye, the causes and treatment should be determined strictly by a specialist.
Sore eyes and watery eyes
Cutting in the eyes can be accompanied by the phenomenon of tearing, which can be triggered by a set of various factors that have no connection with each other. If this pathological condition occurs often enough, you should pay attention to several factors: the external environment (stay in the wind or frost, a sharp change in temperature, exposure to sunlight). Dry eyes can be caused by allergic reactions or acute respiratory infections. Another causal factor in the onset of the disease can be the wearing of contact lenses, the tension of visual function, changes in age, eye diseases.
Why is pain in the eyes formed
There are many causes of dry eye syndrome - cramps in the eyes, several basic factors can be identified:
- inflammatory processes and reactions, in particular, we are talking about keratitis and conjunctivitis, during their course, in any case, there is a noticeable reddening of the eyelids, tears and stinging in the eye area, in some cases a runny nose manifests itself, the body temperature rises;
- diseases that contribute to the defeat of the eyelids, most often there is a fear of bright natural and artificial light, increased production of tears;
- diseases of a viral nature - most often provocateurs are ailments such as herpes, flu, measles, ARVI;
- wearing low-quality contact lenses and products that do not fit in size;
- excessive eye strain;
- neuralgia in the area of the ternary nerve - this pathology is accompanied by noticeable pain in the eyes and the entire face, there may be an unpleasant burning sensation in the oral cavity;
- the phenomenon of astigmatism, the use of low-quality cosmetics for the care of the skin of the face and around the eyes;
- glaucoma and cyclitis;
- traumatic phenomena of the eye, including falling, hitting, hitting any foreign bodies and objects;
- burns of all degrees and sources of origin, thermal injuries due to hot water and steam;
- pathological conditions in the area of the thyroid gland, diseases associated with it;
- penetration of tobacco smoke;
- difficulties associated with the work of the sebaceous glands;
- ulcerative reactions and processes in the corneal region;
- increased pressure inside the eye, neuralgic phenomena;
- pathologies associated with the work of the sebaceous glands;
- ulcers in the cornea.
All of these factors can cause dry eye symptoms and severe eye pain. It is necessary to focus on them when choosing the general tactics of the treatment process.
Therapy when a problem occurs
Dry eyes and stinging eyes suggest urgent treatment. After establishing an accurate diagnosis, the specialist prescribes a treatment process that helps to eliminate the underlying cause. Carrying out therapeutic measures on your own is unacceptable, because this can lead to complete loss of vision. With eye cramps, the causes and treatment are usually interrelated, it is important to pay attention to ointments containing antibiotic additives and antiviral substances. Washing of the mucous membranes with the use of sparing solutions is prescribed.
If there are allergic manifestations of cramps in the eyes, antihistamines taken internally are used to eliminate them. If the causative factor of the cramps in the eyes was a weakening of the immune system, therapy is prescribed with a complex of vitamin substances and drops of an anti-inflammatory composition. Special gymnastics helps to relax and relieve tension with cramps in the eyes; such treatment with folk remedies includes several basic exercises:
- the implementation of rotation of the eyes in different directions;

The manifestation of dry eye syndrome can also have causes that consist in a long stay at the computer, over time the pain in the eyes becomes more and more stronger, in this case it is advisable to use special drops and glasses equipped with special lenses. If a foreign body gets into the eye, it is necessary to get it by closing the eye and moving a finger along the eyelid zone from the edge, the particle will gradually move to the exit. In this case, a sharp and quick blinking helps to solve the problem. The reason for the discomfort that causes grit in the eyes can also lie in the use of lenses (if they are not inserted correctly). In this case, you just need to take and change them.

A cut in the eyes is an unpleasant symptom that indicates the presence of certain pathologies in the visual apparatus. There is discomfort for various reasons, while eye pain is not a separate disease. Treatment is prescribed by an ophthalmologist only after a thorough diagnosis and determination of the exact cause of the pathological process.
Accompanied by tearing
When the pain in the eyes leads to the active release of tear fluid, the following reasons can affect this process:
- The influence of environmental factors. Sore eyes can be the result of prolonged exposure to wind or frost. Such symptoms often bother people with a sharp change in climate or when bright rays of the sun penetrate the retina of the organ of vision. Cutting is a defensive reaction, because when exposed to negative factors, the brain tries to send a signal to the lacrimal canals to narrow and produce tear fluid to lubricate the eyes. If the pain in the eyes is mild and occurs under sharply changing weather conditions, then this is a natural reaction of the body.
- A foreign object in the eye can cause cuts. It does not matter what size the foreign body is. Increased tear production is the body's ability to get rid of a one-sided object.
- Allergy. An allergic reaction can develop to various external factors. Most often it is plant pollen, dust, pet hair. Because of this, pain and profuse lacrimation occurs. But what causes the vessels in the eyes to burst, you can learn from this
- ARI. With the development of acute respiratory diseases, the patient experiences pain and profuse lacrimation. Symptoms arise due to the fact that when sneezing, viruses penetrate the eyes and lead to irritation of the mucous membrane.
- Use of contact lenses. Lachrymation and stinging in the eyes can be the result of improper choice of the material used for the manufacture of optical products, poor-quality solution for storing lenses. It will also be helpful to know how to properly use
- Increased eye strain. It occurs during prolonged stay at the computer, reading, due to poor-quality lighting.
- Age-related changes.
- Eye pathologies - blepharitis, conjunctivitis, autoimmune diseases.

- Chaliazion.
- Endophthalmitis - suppuration of the membranes of the organ of vision.
If the pain is only in the morning
If the pain in the eyes bothers mainly in the morning, then the cause is inflammation of the eyeball, which can be affected by such eye diseases:
- glaucoma - increased intraocular pressure. But what glaucoma looks like in the photo, you can see.;
- cyclitis - manifested in the form of lacrimation, cramps, burning;
- keratitis - inflammation of the cornea of the organ of vision;

It is impossible to consider it as a separate symptom, because it is already a sign of a disease, which is complemented by concomitant manifestations.
Causes
Severe pain occurs for various reasons. This symptom is characteristic of inflammatory processes, viral infections, keratoconjunctivitis dry, trauma.
Cutting occurs during allergic reactions, incorrectly set optical power (when purchasing contact optics or spectacles).
The symptom can be disturbing in the morning, during the day, and even at night. In the latter case, neurological diseases are the cause.
Inflammatory conditions
Diseases of an inflammatory nature are accompanied by redness, discharge of purulent contents, profuse lacrimation, itching and burning. They develop due to the penetration of viruses, allergens, fungi or bacterial microflora.
Cutting is a common symptom in inflammatory conditions. She accompanies the patient constantly until treatment begins.
