Your eye got hurt on the side. Signs of this are pain, red color, swelling, and blurry sight. Hitting or bumping near your eye can do this. Gently use something cold over it. Don't rub it. If pain stays or seeing issues don't go away, it's wise to go see an eye doctor.

Eye pressure 19/21 in eyes

Male | 23

Your eyes may feel pressure higher than usual. Sometimes, no issues occur, but it could cause blurry vision, headaches, or eye pain. High-pressure results from fluid not draining properly. An eye doctor may prescribe eye drops, which help lower the pressure and protect your sight.

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 am suffering from eye itching and burning sensation in and around eye. It usually happen with me every summer when dry air flows. The symptom resonates with allergic conjuctivitis. The skin below and aside eye become very itchy. When water from eye drop on this skin it create very harsh irritation. Please suggest medication. Right now I am using Lotepred LS drop.

Female | 50

It appears as if you might be having allergy-related conjunctivitis, a problem that occurs often in dry seasons. First, I suggest seeing an ophthalmologist who is an expert in all eye conditions. This will give him a chance to properly diagnose your condition and prescribe the right medication for you.

I take ashwagandha daily, can I donate my blood? And I had a Lasik eye surgery 3 years ago.

Male | 21

Yes, you can give blood if you take ashwagandha every day and had Lasik surgery 3 years ago. The ashwagandha herb is safe and will not impact your blood donation. The Lasik eye operation you had some time ago also does not stop you from giving blood. Just make sure you feel good on the day you plan to donate blood.

What are the symptoms one can experience if they have Eye Cancer? Are they noticeable or do they go unnoticed?

Eye cancer does not always cause obvious symptoms and may only be picked up during a routine eye test. Some of the common symptoms of eye cancer are:

Shadows
Flashes of light
Blurred vision
Dark patch in eye that's getting bigger
Partial or total loss of vision
Bulging of 1 eye
A lump on eyelid or in eye that's increasing in size
Pain in or around eye, others.

The above mentioned symptoms can also be caused by more minor eye conditions, so they're not necessarily a sign of cancer. Consult an ophthalmologist. Hope our answer helps you.

Please could you recommend a viable medication for chalezia. I would be extremely grateful

Male | 32

The oil gland in the eyelid is blocked leads to chalazion. A small bump might appear and then edema or tenderness might occur. Generally, warm compresses are effective in curing it. If not, an eye doctor may recommend antibiotic eye drops or ointment.

One eye problem ? but docter response you can't be right eya demage stone

Male | 18

Seeing strange shapes in your vision could be a sign of a serious eye problem. If you notice shapes like stones, it may mean your retina is detaching. This can cause floaters, flashes of light, and vision loss. If you have these symptoms, see an eye doctor right away. Detached retinas need quick surgery, or you could face long-term vision issues.

My son's eyes are red and Very tearful

Male | 5

Your kid's eyes seem irritated, with redness and excessive tearing. This could indicate pink eye, often caused by viral or bacterial infections. To provide relief, gently cleanse his eyes using warm water, applying cool damp cloth compresses. Encourage frequent handwashing too. However, if symptoms persist, visit an eye specialist.

I have pain in my right eye in the right corner and it seems to be painful and When I move it and blink it hurts also if I press on it it is abit painful. I have had it for 1 to 2 days.

Male | 15

According to your description, you may experience eye strain. Overworked eyes are the main reason for this and they may cause discomfort. The most common symptoms are the sensation of pain in the right eye, especially when you move or blink. This can happen if you stare at the screens or read too long. To solve this, take breaks from screens, use warm compresses and rest your eyes. If it doesn't get better, go to an eye doctor.

My mother has arthritis since 2014 and because of that she has extremely dry eyes. This Aug 2024 she got corneal ulcer which has been treated by dr hijab mehta and now my mother has corneal vascularisation in her left eye. Please is there any treatment for it to remove the scar? My mother has very thin cornea and her vision is still there. She can see things but blur bcoz of that scar. Please help if there is any treatment for it to heal

Female | 54

Your mom's corneal vascularisation can be caused by some issues that have existed for a long time such as arthritis and corneal ulcer. The scar on her cornea may be the reason for her vision being blurry. Treatment options may be included in eye drops, surgery, or using lenses. An eye doctor has to follow up with her to get the best treatment plan.

Female | 15

A scary eye issue occurred when your daughter was 5. The eye's jelly detached from the retina. She may have noticed black spots, bright flashes, or vision-obscuring. Surgery is needed to reconnect the retina, preventing blindness. An ophthalmologist must assess and treat her condition properly.
