All welcome. I caught hares in slang at the welder means that he got retinal burns and eye from the glare of the arc. I Adding this rather unpleasant and can be quite dangerous to the eye. According to scientific is called elektroftalmiey. I shall explain in a simple way, we will not use a complicated and confusing medical terminology. These burns are divided into 4 degrees. The first two are not so dangerous, and take off can be managed at home. But the third grade 4 - severe burns is a clouding of the eye retina, with them just need to go to the hospital, because you can lose sight.
Feel after welding burning, foreign body sensation in eyes as if sand was poured into the eyes - all symptoms that you caught the hare. If the cornea is not too muddy or not cloudy, you have 1 or 2 degree burns. He can cope at home. Since pain and discomfort can not be avoided - you need to be prepared to deal with them. Usually these symptoms emerge in the evening after work. From folk remedies are the most effective mug chopped potatoes and tea bags (wet ) They need to cool the water in the refrigerator and apply to the eyelids - cold will help reduce inflammation and pain .
Of medicines is the most popular remedy for burns welding eye will sulfacetamide, and tetracycline. How to use them - all written in the instructions to these drugs. I also want to add the medical advice of the comments on the article. When electric ophthalmia is currently the best thing is to take a pill Ketanov or Ketorol. With the aim of better antibiotic use Okomistin 1-2 drops 3 times a day (it does not cause irritation as sulfacetamide). With the aim of anti-inflammatory Nevanak 1-2 drops 3 times a day, every hour and apply 1 drop Korneregel drug, both under the bottom, and under the upper eyelid. This ophthalmic gel contains Dexpanthenol having a healing and regenerating effect, especially when the burn lesions. Wear sunglasses, because the first time after the burn is severe photophobia. Pain is necessary at first to suffer, just happened to violate safety regulations.
But in general it is committed to protecting your eyes during welding. The best recommendation is, in my opinion, the guys use the mask chameleon. It is worth it is not as expensive to save on vision.
