Why is my optic nerve shrunken causing blurred vision?
Blur vision due to shrunken optic nerve
Ophthalmologist/ Eye Surgeon
Answered on 8th June '24
If your optic nerve becomes smaller, it may lead to unclear eyesight. This happens when the nerve is injured or squeezed. You might have difficulty seeing things sharply or lose your peripheral vision. It is necessary to determine the reason behind this atrophy. It is important to consult a neurologist or an ophthalmologist as soon as possible to diagnose and treat the underlying cause.

I am a 28 year old male. I was using my phone and my phone fell off under my eyes....and blood came out.....there is only little wound....blood came....and there is pain in one side of the face.....phone edge got contact with the under eye....what to do for this situation??? Can you recommend anything for not having any scar.....is this issue critical? Can you please tell me???
Male | 28
Blood and pain are the normal things you experience when your skin gets damaged. The area under your eye can be cleared by softly rinsing it with water and then taping a piece of Band-Aid on it. You can gently put a thin layer of antibiotic ointment around the scar with the hope that it will not scar. Identify the issue and if it doesn't heal or you see any signs of infection like swelling, heat, or pus, it is good to see an eye specialist.

My eye I woke up and and try looking at my light bulbs and I saw something like rainbow color’s around it and also my eye ball is red since morning
Male | 16
You are experiencing an ailment called eye strain. Nowadays, it is common for people to experience problems with their eyesight. When your eyes are overworked they might be showing kaleidoscope colors or red. This is possible when the eyes are staring at light bulbs for too long. To help, rest your eyes by looking away from screens and lights. Eye drops or glasses may also be useful.

Hello! I am an almost 30 year old female and for the past week I have trouble looking/focusing far away or when looking upwards. I always get dizzy and have the constant feeling that me eyes and their surrounding area have become more heavy, out of the sudden, and push my eyes downwards. I dont see blury or have double vision, I just refrain from looking upwards of faw away because I feel instantly dizzy. No medical history, no drugs. Can you please give me an insight as to what is happening;
Female | 30
Vertical heterophoria might be the reason for your dizziness and the heavy feeling around your eyes. It’s a misalignment issue that doesn’t cause blurred or double vision. To fix it, visit an eye doctor who can provide you with special prism eyeglasses. These glasses realign your eyes and relieve the symptoms.

I have redness in my right eye and headache as well .i checked the bp it was 80/132. Kindly guide.what is the reason behind it.and what sort of bp us it,normal,or high
Female | 37
Redness in your right eye, along with a headache, can result from various factors such as eye strain, allergies, or mild infections. Your blood pressure reading of 80/132 indicates slightly elevated diastolic pressure, which is generally considered acceptable, though this can vary depending on individual health. It’s essential to rest your eyes, stay hydrated, and apply a cool compress if needed. For persistent symptoms or discomfort, please consult a healthcare professional for a personalized evaluation. They can provide more detailed insights and treatment options tailored to your situation.

can you take mdma after having lasik eye surgery
Female | 20
Using MDMA after LASIK is risky because it can cause high eye pressure, blurred vision, and light sensitivity, which are all hazardous for your healing post-operative eyes. Therefore it is critical to shield them during this time and abstain from substances like ecstasy that might hurt them.

Axenfeld loop is when there is a tiny dark spot on the white part of your eye, and it can be like having something in your eye. Besides this, other factors such as eye strain or irritation could also be sources of this. To cope with the discomfort, artificial tears can be applied to your eyes. Don't rub your eyes. If the symptoms are still there or worsen, it's better to go to an eye doctor for further examination and treatment.

Male | 23
Pink eye, also known as conjunctivitis, may be causing your eye issue. Redness and itchiness are symptoms of this condition. A viral or bacterial infection likely triggers it. Applying cool compresses to your eye can provide relief. Avoid touching or rubbing the affected area. Over-the-counter eye drops may also help alleviate discomfort. Frequent handwashing is crucial to prevent spreading the infection to others.

You might be experiencing eye strain and fatigue, as these can result in headaches, body aches, and ringing in the ears too. Additionally, when one is tired, their eyes tend to work more thereby causing the mentioned symptoms. For relief, ensure to take screen breaks, rest your eyes, and try using warm compresses. However, if they persist, consult an eye specialist immediately.

My maid is having cataract her doctor told her that it is on the verge of rupture..she is unable to pay for the operation. Is it possible to get her operated without much charges?
Female | 40
The reason behind may have been the presence of clouded vision, night time blackout, and light sensitivity. In a person's life, cataracts appear when the eye gets a cloudy lens due to age or specific health issues. To have the problem rectified, the maid should be fully followed up with a health care provider, it would serve as an interference to have avoidable ruptures or another form of complication. Significant discounts or financial aid programs are also available for those in need of medical services in many clinics or hospitals. It is a good idea for her to reach out to the local health facilities and the help of charity groups.

Hello i am 14 years old and i constantly see lightning in the corner of my eye?? im super stressed and i overreact easily
Male | 14
Seeing flashes of light or "lightning" in your peripheral vision can sometimes be a symptom of an eye related issue. However, stress and anxiety can also cause visual disturbances, including perceived flashes of light. Meantime it may be helpful to practice stress management techniques, such as deep breathing exercises, mindfulness or meditation. If this also doesn't help then visit an eye specialist to get it checked.

I have amblyopia, one of my eyes are lazy, I want to know if it can be treated by patching ?
Female | 21
Lazy eye, also called amblyopia, makes one eye see poorly compared to the other. It leads to blurry eyesight, doubled vision, and trouble perceiving depth. Children frequently experience this condition. One treatment involves patching the stronger eye, forcing the weaker one to work harder. This may enhance vision in the lazy eye. If symptoms occur, seeking an eye doctor's advice becomes crucial for suitable treatment.
