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.

Low vision Thin optic nerve Eye pain headache
Male | 20
The reason you’re not able to see well may be that your optic nerve is thin. This could result in things appearing fuzzy or being hard to see. People with this issue might also feel pain around their eyes and get frequent headaches. Book an appointment with an eye specialist soon enough.

My right eye have been twitching over a week now
Female | 19
Eye twitching is frequent, yet persistent spasms lasting over a week warrant attention. Stress, fatigue, excessive caffeine - all potential triggers. Combat it through adequate rest, stress reduction, and caffeine moderation. Persisting twitches or vision changes necessitate consulting an eye doctor.

Iam 27 year i have cataract problem of 2 year
Male | 27
Cataracts are eye conditions that cause cloudy vision, making it hard to see clearly. People with cataracts may notice that objects appear blurry, colors are less vibrant, and vision at night is more challenging. Cataracts typically develop when the lens in your eye becomes cloudy, often due to aging or other health issues. The most effective treatment is surgery, where the cloudy lens is replaced with a clear artificial one.

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.

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!

Yes, eye pain can be a sign of TB infection if your eyes are infected with it. TB can infect the eyes which in turn can lead to various health problems. Typical symptoms are the presence of eye pain, redness, and blurry vision. The medication for TB treatment should be followed strictly as prescribed by your doctor.

Eye twitches can happen for different reasons. Stress, fatigue, and too much caffeine can cause this issue. To find relief, try relaxing, getting proper sleep, and limiting caffeine intake. Additionally, eye strain may contribute to twitching. Taking breaks from screens and using warm compresses could help. However, if the twitching persists or becomes bothersome, it's recommended to consult an eye doctor.

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.

Femelle | 57
My suggestion is that you get an appointment with an ophthalmologist to have a look at the condition of your left eye. Complications do occur in a cataract surgery, though this procedure is very popular. The retina and choroid can detach from each other, and then cause permanent vision loss.

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.

Hi ..I am forty-eight years old... Can I have LASIK to correct my vision... ??
Male | 48
Lasik eligibility depends on having a stable vision, eye health, and corneal thickness. At age 48, it's essential to consult an eye care specialist to determine if lasik is suitable for you. Other vision correction options like implantable lenses can be considered if Lasik isn't recommended.

Hello I am looking for a treatment for an eye whose nerves have stopped functioning.
Male | 60
You might be affected by a disorder of the eye, where the nervous cells in the eye are not working properly. This may be due to aging, high blood pressure, or diabetes. Nevertheless, it also might be that a person exhibits signs of blurred, partial, or total vision loss. Treatments for that might include taking special eye drops or doing procedures that will be put in place to protect your nerve endings that are situated in the eye. Your optometrist can prescribe eye drops or other medications to improve your vision.

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.

What is this brown stuff coming from eue,looks like long strands of hair
Female | 63
You could have dacryolithiasis. Brown stuff from your eyes that looks like hair might mean your tears aren't draining well. Blocked tear ducts can cause irritation, redness, and even infection. Try warm compresses and gentle eyelid massages to help with drainage. If the problem persists, see an eye doctor for proper treatment.

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.

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.
