Disease description:
I recently developed herpes zoster ophthalmicus, which is very painful and preventing me from sleeping at night. Could you please tell me what are the nursing care measures for herpes zoster ophthalmicus?

The nursing care measures for herpes zoster ophthalmicus mainly include:
1. Adjusting diet structure: Patients should maintain a light diet and consume more nutritious, easily digestible foods such as vegetables and fruits. They should avoid spicy, greasy, overly salty, or irritating foods, as well as alcohol and allergenic foods such as seafood and mutton. This helps alleviate ocular symptoms and promote recovery.
2. Maintaining eye hygiene: Keep the eyes clean and dry. Avoid rubbing the eyes with hands to prevent worsening infection. Personal items such as towels and basins should be used separately and disinfected regularly to prevent cross-infection.
3. Ensuring adequate rest: Patients should ensure sufficient sleep and avoid staying up late or overexertion, in order to maintain immune function and promote recovery.
4. Emotional management: Maintaining an optimistic and cheerful mood, and avoiding prolonged mental stress, anxiety, and other negative emotions, can help regulate physical condition and promote recovery.
5. Following medical advice: During the course of the illness, patients should actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment plan, take medications on time and as directed, and attend follow-up appointments regularly to ensure effective control of the condition.
