Negative effects of excessive eye rubbing

 Excessive eye rubbing can lead to several negative effects, including: 1. Corneal Abrasions: Rubbing your eyes too hard can scratch the surface of the cornea, leading to corneal abrasions or scratches. 2. Increased Eye Pressure: Vigorous rubbing can temporarily increase intraocular pressure, which may be harmful, especially for individuals with certain eye conditions like glaucoma. 3. Eye Infections: Rubbing your eyes introduces bacteria from your hands into the delicate tissues of the eye, increasing the risk of eye infections such as conjunctivitis. 3. Allergic Reactions: Rubbing your eyes can worsen allergic reactions by spreading allergens and causing further irritation. 4. Corneal Shape Changes: In individuals with conditions like keratoconus, excessive rubbing can exacerbate the progression of corneal thinning and shape changes. Overall, it's important to avoid excessive eye rubbing and practice gentle eye care to maintain eye health and prevent potential complications.
