How to relieve elevated eye pressure

Elevated intraocular pressure can generally be managed through lifestyle modifications, medication, dietary therapy, and other treatment approaches.

1. General Management

Patients with elevated intraocular pressure should adjust their daily routines and eating habits accordingly, adopting appropriate improvement measures such as maintaining regular and sufficient sleep, using the eyes reasonably, and paying attention to eye hygiene and care.

2. Medication

If patients experience symptoms such as eye pain, dry eyes, or blurred vision, they may, under medical supervision, use medications such as brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic solution, travoprost ophthalmic solution, or benazepril hydrochloride tablets. These medications help reduce intraocular pressure and prevent disease progression.

3. Dietary Therapy

In daily diet management, intake of sodium, sugar, and cholesterol should be restricted, favoring a light diet. Additionally, consuming foods rich in vitamins and minerals is recommended, as these nutrients help maintain stable intraocular pressure and support healthy eye tissue.

Besides the above measures, some patients may require additional treatments such as traditional Chinese medicine to achieve optimal therapeutic outcomes. It is advisable for patients to seek early medical evaluation and undergo standardized treatment under professional guidance.
