清熱祛濕除眼垢
眼屎為眼睛的分泌物,由油脂、淚液、灰塵等結合而成,偶爾出現屬正常,但如果眼屎出現次數增多就要注意,中醫角度認為眼屎多是一種症狀,反映身體有熱,例如工作忙碌、經常熬夜晚睡,就會導致肝火上升以致眼屎增多。如果身體有濕熱,眼屎更會變得較黏稠。想紓緩眼垢多的症狀,飲食宜清淡,少吃生冷、辛辣、煙、酒、濃茶咖啡等刺激性及重口味食物,適量進食有清熱祛濕功效的食物和飲用湯水。
如果眼屎變成黃色,伴有雙眼通紅、痕癢或赤痛等症狀,有機會是眼睛受細菌或病毒感染,宜就醫處理。而嬰兒多眼屎情況很普遍,因為嬰兒淚腺發育未健全,多注意清潔,隨著長大情況會逐漸改善,如果情況持續宜諮詢專業人士意見。
清熱祛濕湯水小貼士:
適當地添加清熱祛濕的食材如荷葉、生薏米、綠豆、土茯苓等。

Clear heat and dampness to clear your eye boogers
Eye boogers are the discharge from the eyes. They are mainly made up of fats, tears and dusts. It is normal if they appear occasionally, but we need to take note of it if the frequency increases.
Chinese Medicine opined that eye boogers are a symptom that reflects body heat, which is a result of a hectic work schedule and staying up late. The increase in eye boogers is due to the accumulation of body heat in the liver. If an individual has damp-heat body condition, his or her eye boogers will become thicker and stickier.
In order to improve the condition, eat light and clear food, avoid eating raw, cold, spicy and heavily seasoned food; avoid drinking alcohol and concentrated coffee; avoid smoking. Consume food that can clear heat and dampness, and drink more soup as well.
If the eye boogers turn yellow, coupled with conditions like redness, itch or pain in the eyes, it could mean bacterial and viral infection. Individuals with these eye conditions should seek immediate treatment. This is common among toddlers, as their tear ducts have yet to fully develop, therefore, we need to be mindful of their hygiene. As toddlers grow older, the situation should improve; but if the same condition persists, do seek professional medical advice.
Tips for soup to clear heat and dispel dampness:
Appropriately add in ingredients such as lotus leaf, coix seed, munk bean, smilax etc.
