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.

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.

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.

I am a 28 year old male. I was using my phone and my phone fell off under my eyes....and blood came out.....there is only little wound....blood came....and there is pain in one side of the face.....phone edge got contact with the under eye....what to do for this situation??? Can you recommend anything for not having any scar.....is this issue critical? Can you please tell me???

Male | 28

Blood and pain are the normal things you experience when your skin gets damaged. The area under your eye can be cleared by softly rinsing it with water and then taping a piece of Band-Aid on it. You can gently put a thin layer of antibiotic ointment around the scar with the hope that it will not scar. Identify the issue and if it doesn't heal or you see any signs of infection like swelling, heat, or pus, it is good to see an eye specialist.

hi iam 19 years old and my eye power is near -4 ,[minus 4] so can i do lasik eye surgery , i just want to remove my specis im wearing from past 6 years that time eye power was nearly -1.5 , every time its increasing ,, please let me know

Male | 19

There have been a lot of changes in your eyes over the past few years. Being nearsighted is having a power of -4, which can occur when the eyeball is too long. When trying to see things that are far away, this may lead to cloudy vision. If you’re wondering if it’s right for you at this moment, consult an eye surgeon about LASIK surgery. Before deciding on anything, they must perform a thorough examination of your eyes so they know what’s changed.

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 have so called Amplyopia in my left eye, and I am 54 years old , is possible to treat that

Male | 54

Amplyopia, known as lazy eye, can happen because childhood vision didn't develop right. Or it can be caused by other eye issues. Signs may be blurry sight, or eyes not working together well. At 54, treating lazy eye is harder, but vision therapy or glasses might help improve eyesight some. Getting eyes checked regularly is very important.

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. Also, it is recommended to have regular check-ups to track your progress.

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.

I’ve been experiencing double vision and vision shaking when I have double vision and I lost my balance and I am always nauseous

Female | 23

Double vision and shaky vision are a sign of many different illnesses, including neurological diseases and conditions with eye muscles. It is crucial to see an ophthalmologist or a neurologist for an exact diagnosis and the best treatment plan. Do not procrastinate and postpone treatment because these symptoms can cause imbalance or problems with your general health.

Dr. Sumeet Agrawal

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?

Female | 26

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...

I fell more weekness around eye kya reason ho sakti ha

Female | 22

You are experiencing some extra fatigue around the eye area which is no good. This can be caused by several reasons. Not getting enough sleep, staring at a screen for a long time, or not drinking enough water can weaken the eyes. Try taking breaks from the screens, sleeping enough, and drinking lots of water. If this sensation doesn't go away, see an eye doctor for a check-up.

I had an eye stroke on the 11th December and they told me that I have a died vein in my eye and there is a blood stuck in the vein that won't move, I was wondering if you guys have any treatments instead of medicines because in the uk they only prescribe me medications and not medical treatments like operations etc i need urgent help and please do reply if you have anything to help me .

Male | 48

Eye strokes are bad. A blood clot blocks a vein in your eye. This causes blurry vision, pain, and flashes of light. High blood pressure or diabetes can cause clots. Surgery might not help, but laser therapy or injections may restore blood flow. It's crucial to see an eye doctor regularly. They'll recommend the best treatment.

I have a squit eyes I wanted to have a check up

Female | 22

You have a condition called "squint eyes", aka strabismus. The situation is where one of the eyes is not functioning right, thus the two eyes are directed in different ways. Sometimes, you will see one eye looking one way, like in, out, up, or down. One reason could be the weakened eye muscles, or the problem may be with the nerves that control the eye muscles. The type of treatment may include glasses, eye exercises, or surgery, depending on the cause and degree of the squint. It is vital to visit an eye specialist for an accurate assessment and a discussion of the best treatment choices for you.

I take ashwagandha daily, can I donate my blood? And I had a Lasik eye surgery 3 years ago.

Male | 21

Yes, you can give blood if you take ashwagandha every day and had Lasik surgery 3 years ago. The ashwagandha herb is safe and will not impact your blood donation. The Lasik eye operation you had some time ago also does not stop you from giving blood. Just make sure you feel good on the day you plan to donate blood.

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.
