Causes of eye stones

The cause of eye stones is not yet clear, may be related to factors such as poor working environment and poor hygiene habits.

1, bad working environment

If the patient works in the sand area for a long time, without protective measures, sand easily enters the eye, easy to coagulate with exfoliated epithelial cells and denatured white blood cells, thus forming eye stones.

2, poor hygiene habits

If the patient often rubs his eyes with dirty hands, using contaminated towels, contact lenses and other items, the eyes are infected by bacteria, viruses and other pathogens, causing conjunctivitis, trachoma, etc., more eye secretions, easy to absorb exfoliated cells, and promote the formation of eye stones.
