Do I need antibiotic drops for eye discomfort?
I had a plants poked my left eye yesterday, currently my eye can blink and can see. It did not injured my cornea but above my eyeball. Today it still feels uncomfortable, not as pain as yesterday and still bearable. Do I need to use antibiotics drops or is there any other medication I can buy over the counter?

The issue seems to be a trivial one, like a plant that has poked your eye. This feeling may include redness, discomfort, and a gritty feeling. As you have no injury to the cornea, antibiotics are not needed. If your eye is puffy, you may get relief from using artificial tears to drop your eye. In case the discomfort continues or worsens, you should visit an eye doctor.

I have eye problems like retina detached anything to do about it there? Because I want to travel
Male | 56
Are you seeing floaters, flashes, or a curtain across your vision? This may mean retinal detachment, where the retina separates from the eye. Aging and injuries can cause detachment, which harms sight if untreated. Surgery reattaches the retina, preventing permanent blindness. Visit an eye specialist.

For the last three days my eyes are itching a lot and have become a little red too.
Female | 19
You might have eye allergies. Itchy, red, watery eyes often mean allergens like dust, pollen, or pet dander irritating them. Over-the-counter eye drops can help soothe the discomfort. Don't rub your eyes. Wash hands often and keep living spaces clean to reduce allergens. If symptoms persist, consult an eye care professional.

Sir unfortunatly I droped atropine eye drops in my eyes , now 2days went but I can't see properly beacuse of eyedrop
Male | 18
Atropine eye drops are used for specific eye conditions, but if they get into your eyes accidentally, you may experience blurred vision or other issues because atropine can over-dilate your pupils. This should return to normal as your eyes recover. Just wait a little, and if your vision doesn't clear up, you should see an eye specialist.

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.

Mujhe dry eye ki problem hai
Male | 26
Tears keep eyes lubricated and moist. Sometimes, eyes don't make enough tears. This condition is called dry eye. You may experience feeling gritty objects in your eyes, or your vision becomes blurry. Causes include aging, prolonged screen usage, and certain medications. Helpful remedies: use artificial tear drops; take breaks from digital devices. But if symptoms persist, consult an eye specialist for further evaluation and management.

Hi Doctor My wife is pregnant and having a pimple inside the eye lid. And eyes became painfully and red Watery
Female | 33
Your spouse may be suffering from what is called a stye, a pimple-like bulge on the eyelid. When oil glands are blocked, styes occur; they can be painful causing redness and watery eyes. To relieve the pain, apply warm compresses to the eye several times a day. Avoid rubbing your eyes. If the stye does not get any better or worsens, it would probably be a good time to consult with an eye specialist.

Dear Sir/Madam, I live abroad. I cannot see because the cornea and optic nerves of my right eye have not developed since birth, and the colored part of my cornea is smaller than my seeing eye. Is there a treatment method in your clinic that will help me see? Or do you have an application that will provide the same appearance as my other eye? Best regards
Male | 18
You have a congenital problem in which one of your eyes, the right one, has not developed fully. This can result in visual impairment or even blindness in that eye. Regrettably, in your case where the cornea and optic nerve have not developed, no treatment can bring back vision. Nevertheless, some cosmetic options like colored contact lenses or prosthetic eyes can enhance the look of your eye and make it more similar to your other eye.

I have a eye problem, My eye has pimple what is home remedy for it
Female | 11
A stye is a little, reddish bump on your eyelid. It happens from clogged oil glands in the eyelids. Styes hurt and make eyelids swell. Use a warm cloth on your eye a few times daily to ease discomfort. It helps styes drain and heal quicker. Wash hands before and after touching eyes. Don't squeeze or pop styes. See an eye doctor if the stye doesn't improve after days or worsens.

Can you help me is this a major problem? or need more treatment?
Female | 43
This could be a case of eye strain caused by the computer and prolonged use of it. This can lead to symptoms such as blurred vision, headaches, and the inability to focus. The causal factor is usually the long screen time. To help, try taking breaks, adjusting your screen settings, and making sure to wear your glasses as prescribed. If the situation continues, it is better to consult an eye doctor for more examinations.

I’m wondering if eyeglasses are needed while my right eye is 20/30 and my left eye is 20/25, but both are 20/20 and my right eye suffers from recurrent corneal erosion.
Male | 27
Both your eyes are mostly fine. A corneal erosion can be dangerous and cause pain and sensitivity to light. Even if you have perfect eyesight, you may need to wear special glasses that will protect your eye from an even greater injury. These glasses can be used to stop more erosions from happening.

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.

I 28 years old. I have under gone Lasik eye surgery in Narayana Netralaya in 2019. But one of the eye didn't improve any eye sight...I went to them but they said the Par has removed and the number of both the eyes is zero.. but one eye I can't read and get blurred vision... Is there any way or is it necessary to undergo another surgery....please help me out in this issue
Male | 28
This is alarming because even in one of your eyes you still face an issue with clarity of vision after Lasik surgery. It is recommended that one consult an eye consultant doctor who conducts a full eye inspection. They take note of unique factors that cause blurred vision; these may be refractive errors or an underlying condition. This depends on what is found in the latter part of these surgical procedures so it may entail additional surgery if the findings are unfavorable, but proper professional assessment by an eye specialist would be better.

Eyes pain but its not red or no show something in eys eyes pain on both sides what problem
Male | 25
Eye strain can explain why you have discomfort in both eyes without the presence of any red spots or other things in them. This is commonly the case when you carelessly devote too much time to the display when looking at it or reading. Relieve your eyes by taking breaks, blinking frequently, and using artificial tears. When the pain persists for longer than usual, it shouldn't be a problem to schedule a visit to an ophthalmologist.

Your eye seems red for a couple of days now. Many causes exist allergies, irritation, and infection. Do you feel itchy, watery eyes, or light-sensitive? Try putting something cool on your eye. Don't rub it. If red doesn't fade in a few days, see an eye specialist.
