Why is My Left Eyelid Twitching & I Have Crusty Dry Eyes?
my left eyelid twitches. Both of my eyes are so crusty that all eyelids are covered with a white, dry film like fine table salt (I have been suffering from dry eyes since 2011). I have been suffering from twitching eyes, namely the left eyelid, for almost 3 weeks. Do you recommend a specific ointment? I was about to order this (Terramycin Eye Ointment 3.5 g)

That crusty film on your eyelids could result from dry eye syndrome, leading to the twitch. Terramycin Eye Ointment might help with dryness and irritation, but double-check with your eye doctor before using new meds. Try a warm washcloth compress on your eyes and some OTC artificial tears for relief.

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.

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!

i am 23 year old and my eye turned red yesterday and it is itching too
Male | 23
Pink eye, also known as conjunctivitis, may be causing your eye issue. Redness and itchiness are symptoms of this condition. A viral or bacterial infection likely triggers it. Applying cool compresses to your eye can provide relief. Avoid touching or rubbing the affected area. Over-the-counter eye drops may also help alleviate discomfort. Frequent handwashing is crucial to prevent spreading the infection to others.

Unlike monofocal and bifocal lenses, trifocal lenses also provide comfortable intermediate vision, which is important for various daily activities, such as computer work. With trifocal lenses, you can perform a range of activities in everyday life without glasses. This includes daily tasks such as: reading, working on computer and watching TV (examples given to suggest the distance).

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.

Male | 82
The condition affects the eyes thereby causing visual problems which include difficulties in seeing at night, tunnel vision, and loss of peripheral vision. Instead, there are several treatments that can assist in the management of the symptoms and the slowdown of the disease's progression, such as vision aids, genetic counseling, and lifestyle changes. Eye specialists should be involved for treatment tailored for individual patients.

Spending too much time looking at screens might result in eye strain and temporary loss of visual sharpness. In order to avoid negative impacts on vision, it is better to take breaks, change lighting and use the screens with the anti-reflective filter. For further treatment consult a eye specialist

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.

Female | 43
In your left eye, there is degenerative myopia with choroidal neovascularization, which has caused your vision to decline. In this condition, new blood vessels are growing in the wrong place. The best treatment option right now is an anti-VEGF injection, which can prevent these vessels from causing further damage to your eye. Meanwhile, your right eye has myopia, macular degeneration, and a tessellated fundus. Although your eyesight is not clear, regular use of eye drops can help control the situation to some extent.
