Eyes swell and dry

High intraocular pressure can cause eye swelling, and dry eyes are caused by dry keratoconjunctivitis. In addition to the lack of primary tear secretion, dry keratitis can also be found in the following situations: 1. Chronic diseases such as endocrine diseases, anemia, and vitamin deficiency. 2. Acute diseases such as acute exfoliative dermatitis, Stevens-Jonhnson's syndrome, ocular pemphigus. 3. Trauma and surgery of the eyelid and conjunctiva may damage most of the basal and reverse secretory ducts. Primary insufficiency of tear secretion is commonly referred to clinically as the syndrome. There are two types of broad and narrow sense. The so-called generalized syndrome (SJS) refers to the combination of other systemic and immune-related diseases (such as rheumatoid arthritis) in addition to dry mouth and eyes. SJS in the narrow sense is Keratitis sicca (KCS for short). "Dry eye disease" or dry conjunctiva and keratitis (dry keratitis, conjunctivitis) is a disease caused by the inability of the conjunctiva and corneal epithelium to maintain normal function due to the lack of quality or tear fluid in the precorneal tear film.
