Can Masturbation Lead to Glaucoma or Blindness?
Hello, I would like to ask does masturbation cause glaucoma or blindness?
Ophthalmologist/ Eye Surgeon
Answered on 18th Sept '24
Masturbation has nothing to do with glaucoma or blindness. The eye pressure causing some visual disturbance is glaucoma. One of the most common activities in human life is masturbation, in which people do not harm their health. If this is the case for you, if you notice hazy vision or experience eye pain, go to your eye doctor for the right diagnosis and treatment.

I have experienced shaky vision in the top as well the left corner of my left eye. This has happened 4 times so far in a span of 6 months. the most recent being yesterday (11/18/2023). it starts of with a dark/ blind spot in the centre of my eye/ vision so I can see like the peripheries of stuff but not the middle. Kind of like when you stare at the sun or a bulb then you get a dark spot in your vision for a bit. this then transitions into shaky vision in the top and left hand corner of my left eye only. the best way I can describe it is like when you look at the ground on a hot day or the sand in a desert when heat is rising so things look all wavy. that's what it looks like. then this lasts for 10-15 minutes then it goes away. please note that I never have headaches or migraines ever during these episodes. do you have an idea of what this could be?

BASED ON your SYMPTOMS, it's possible that you are experiencing OCULAR MIGRAINES...However, it's IMPORTANT to consult an EYE DOCTOR for a proper DIAGNOSIS and TREATMENT PLAN...Ocular migraines are not HARMFUL, but ruling out other causes is CRUCIAL...

Hi… I wanted to do Contuora vision surgery for removing my spectacle . My age is 42 and powers are -5 cylindrical and -1 spherical with 110 and 65 axis. One doctor suggested that with -5 cylindrical power Contoura vision cannot be done and go for Refractive Lens Exchange / clear lens exchange or ICL. I visited another ophthalmologist for second opinion as I don’t want to extract my natural lens ,and he suggested that I can go with Contoura vision for spec removal. Now I am confused . Should I go with CV. At this point i am not interested to extract my natural lens. Looking for some help in this regard from experts. It’s a matter of eyes. I also have reading glass .
Female | 42
CV is a laser procedure to reshape the cornea, while RLE involves replacing the natural lens. ICL is another lens-based option. To make an informed choice, discuss your cornea's suitability for CV, the effectiveness of each procedure for your prescription, and potential risks with your doctors. Seek a third opinion if needed, as your eye health is important.

I'm a 23 year old female. I am overweight. I'm starting to have vision issues. Is this possibility weight related?
Female | 23
Being overweight can sometimes result in vision problems, particularly if it causes a condition known as diabetic retinopathy. The symptoms may include seeing floaters, blurriness, or having trouble seeing at night. Shedding pounds and stabilizing blood sugar levels can assist in rectifying such vision problems.

She has a eye pressure rate 26-27
Female | 15
An eye pressure between 26-27 is a bit higher than the normal. This can be the first indicator of a disorder named glaucoma. Nevertheless, these signs may be related to decreased vision, eye pain, or no symptoms. Excessive eye pressure is the cause of visual impairment; therefore, an eye examination is essential. The course of action generally includes using eye drops or surgery to reduce pressure levels and keep your sight safe.

You might have a problem looking at distant objects which may indicate myopia (nearsightedness). Do not forget to visit an ophthalmologist who will carry out a full eye examination to know the reason behind your vision problems and to receive the correct treatment.

Your situation with your eyes sounds very serious as you have tears, itching, and pain. The causes can be many like allergies, infections, or dry eyes. To help with your symptoms, you may try a cool compress and avoid rubbing them. Besides, you need to make sure you blink frequently so that your eyes will remain moist. If the symptoms continue or get worse, medical advice from an eye specialist should be sought immediately.

8 years old kid is having cataracts 60%+ . Kindly suggest best lens for kids, And the best Doctor for kids eye surgery . Is surgery only option to cure this or any medication can cure this disease ?
Male | 9
Surgery is the best choice for children facing the problem of cataracts. For the best vision in kids with cataracts intraocular lens (IOL) is recommended, as it offers the most customizable solution based on a particular case. Consulting an eye specialist is the key to exact diagnosis and effective treatment. Medication can't be a remedy for cataracts; surgery is mainly needed to have the eye lens with cloudy removed and vision restored.

I m using steroid eye drops since one year… can be at risk of cataract or glaucoma
Female | 32
Long-term usage of steroid eye drops, like a year, can be risky. It may lead to cataracts or glaucoma. Cataracts cause cloudy vision. Glaucoma can result in eye pain and vision loss. To prevent these problems, regular check-ups with your eye doctor are essential.

I am staying in hostel. My warden have conjunctivitis now.I have red eyes after sleeping only is it conjunctivitis
Female | 18
The symptoms which you are experiencing could be conjunctivitis which in layman’s terms is referred to as pink eye. Conjunctivitis indicates the inflammation of the conjunctiva, the thin, transparent layer surrounding the white area of the eye. In my opinion, you have to consult an ophthalmologist.

I have got retinal gas treatment before 7 weeks, now is that possible to use air transport as of tomorrow?
Male | 50
You might notice changes in air pressure while flying after such a procedure. This could be uncomfortable or slow down the healing process. So, it’s better to postpone your trip until your eyes fully recover from surgery.

The transparent bump on the white part of your mother's eye could be a pinguecula or conjunctival cyst. It's usually harmless but should be checked by an eye doctor, to ensure there’s no serious issue. Please take her to the doctor for a proper examination.

Name Parvati Mishra Age. 60 She eyes opresion was done on January but not his eyes getting red So pls check
Female | 60
Eyes turn red from time to time for various reasons. After an operation, it may happen because of inflammation or irritation. This is likely when they are healing. Lack of tears made after the operation could also cause redness in the eyes. Make sure you follow the eye specialist's advice and use the prescribed eye drops.

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.

You should visit an Ophthalmologist right away. One of the signs that may suggest right eye swelling every morning is an infection, allergy, or underlying medical condition. The underlying cause of your symptoms will be diagnosed and treated by an Ophthalmologist.

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.

Loss of light reflex in the eyes can be a serious concern and may require urgent evaluation by an ophthalmologist or eye specialist. Please take your cousin to the eye care facility as soon as possible for a thorough examination and appropriate medical intervention. The quicker he receives medical attention, the better the chances of a positive outcome.

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.
