White-collar workers like to drink coffee, in fact, although coffee can refresh the mind, but drinking too much also has disadvantages. Some studies have found that because coffee contains caffeine, in the case of long-term intake, large doses of caffeine become a drug, causing not only "caffeine poisoning", but also an increase in the incidence of glaucoma.

Drinking coffee often can lead to glaucoma. This can prevent glaucoma.

Studies have found that drinking coffee often leads to glaucoma.

A recent issue of the Journal of Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science in the United States points out that drinking more than 3 cups of coffee a day greatly increases the risk of various eye diseases, especially glaucoma. The study selected 79000 female and 42000 male volunteers from the American Nurse Health tracking Survey and the Occupational Health tracking Survey. The final study found that people who drank more coffee were significantly more likely to develop exfoliative glaucoma or suspected glaucoma than those who did not drink coffee at all. More data show that Northern Europe, the region with the largest coffee consumption, also has the highest incidence of exfoliative glaucoma in the world.

Experts say drinking coffee can lead to the risk of glaucoma. And glaucoma patients must not drink coffee, because coffee is an irritating food, they will stimulate the nervous system, resulting in elevated intraocular pressure. Factors such as lack of sleep, overwork and emotional agitation can induce the onset of glaucoma.

How to prevent glaucoma?

1. Ophthalmoscope and intraocular pressure examination should be routine for all people over 35 years old, especially for patients with family history of glaucoma and high risk patients, and should be checked once a year after 50 years old.

2. Maintain emotional stability and avoid excessive excitement and excitement. The acute attack of many patients with angle-closure glaucoma is related to emotional agitation.

3. Daily life is regular. Those who are far-sighted should not stay in the dark or wear sunglasses for a long time.

4. Go out less in cold, windy weather. It is not appropriate to bow your head and work at your desk for a long time.

5. Careful use of hormone-containing eye drops, especially long-term use can induce hormone-induced glaucoma.

6. Sudden blurred vision with eye distension, headache, nausea and vomiting is often delayed by patients and even doctors who think it is acute gastrointestinal disease or stroke.

7. Patients with hyperopia and shallow anterior chamber should be cautious during pupil dilation examination, which is of course something that doctors should pay more attention to.
