It seems like you are suffering from a sinus infection, which is why you have a stuffy nose, a headache, and sore eyes. Sinus infections are primarily caused by viruses. You can use steam inhalation to help clear your sinuses, drink plenty of fluids, get some rest, and take over-the-counter pain relievers for relief, too. If your symptoms get worse or don't improve, you should see an eye specialist.

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.

Hello, I'm 16 years old. Since yesterday at 12 PM Spanish time, I've been experiencing small spasms in my lower left eyelid. They feel like muscle contractions, usually sudden and occurring every 20 seconds, with about 10 to 15 contractions per spasm. I don't think there's any underlying issue as I don't have sleep problems, stress, haven't consumed caffeine or alcohol, and I don't feel tired. I would greatly appreciate the help; it's not painful but very annoying.

Male | 16

These spasms might happen because of stress, tiredness, or too much time spent staring at screens. Ensure that you rest your eyes, get enough sleep, and try massaging gently to relieve tension from the muscles around them. If they persist or get worse then it would be wise to talk with an eye specialist for more advice.

I am 15 years old and a few days my eyes color change in to red colour from 14 days and also some pain

Male | 15

There can be various reasons why eyes get red. One of them is allergies but also due to an infection or because they’re dry. In addition, if we stare at screens for too long our eyes may become sore and pinkish. Use some artificial tears and take frequent breaks from your electronic devices. If these symptoms persist then visit an eye specialist.

Female | 20

It seems you have pink eye, a type of eye infection. Your eyes hurt and have a fever. This sickness happens when germs infect the white part of your eyes. Germs like bacteria or viruses cause it. Warm towels on your eyes and keeping them clean helps. Don't touch your eyes too much. See an eye doctor if it doesn't get better.

Optic atrophy due to be retinitis pigmentosa

As per my understanding, you want to know whether retinitis pigmentosa can lead to optic atrophy. Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is rare degenerative disease affecting the rod photoreceptors in the retina. The optic disc in RP may show optic atrophy, usually defined as a 'waxy pallor' of the disc, and is assumed to be a due of photoreceptor degeneration. Consult an ophthalmologist to rule out the cause in your case and to also guide you for further course of management. You can refer - Best Ophthalmologists in India, to sought consultation!

Wind wafted a small amount of perfume into the side of my eyes. I'm currently experiencing discomfort and strange sensations in my eyes as a result of the perfume. I'm worried about going blind?

Male | 33

There's no need to panic when you get some perfume into your eyes. When we get something irritating our eyes, it's common to feel discomfort and unusual things. You may have been affected by the perfume, hence these symptoms. In that case, you should splash clean water on them gently for a while. If it doesn't stop, have an eye specialist see it as soon as possible.

I need optic nerve atrophy treatment

Male | 48

Reduced optic nerve activity can show itself through the symptoms of inability to see the sharp image, obvious zone, or inability to see in the darkness. Several different reasons can be behind this condition, such as injury, specific diseases like glaucoma, or insufficient blood flow. The treatment approach often involves targeting the very problem at the source. It’s necessary to have an eye specialist carry out a thorough examination so that the best course of action can be determined. Therapies, or the adjustment of a lifestyle, may be recommended by them to get the best visual acuity and comfort. Call for professional help to discuss your choices and learn it’s better to handle eye problems at the onset.

Blur vision due to shrunken optic nerve

Female | 46

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.

Eye irritation went to sleep with my mascara on now my eyes are irritated

Female | 29

You should know that the eye irritation you woke up with, and your mascara particles could have been the cause. Mascara particles probably got into your eye while you were asleep. This might result in redness, itching, or even the feeling that a foreign body is sitting in the eye. You can treat your irritated eyes by getting all your makeup off and washing your face before sleeping. If these steps do not work then definitely seek the help of an ophthalmologist.
