Wearing glasses usually does not cause dacryoadenitis. For patients with dacryoadenitis, wearing glasses can help protect the eyes from dust. If you experience eye discomfort, it is advisable to use eye drops for treatment. Actively use antibiotic eye drops, antibiotic ointments, and sensitive antibiotics, following a scientifically guided approach for treatment, improvement, and recovery. Additionally, maintain a light diet, keep warm, and avoid spicy or irritating foods.
