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.

You are experiencing an ailment called eye strain. Nowadays, it is common for people to experience problems with their eyesight. When your eyes are overworked they might be showing kaleidoscope colors or red. This is possible when the eyes are staring at light bulbs for too long. To help, rest your eyes by looking away from screens and lights. Eye drops or glasses may also be useful.

Allergies, infections, or dryness may cause this. Over-the-counter lubricating eye drops can be used to treat it. These drops will help relieve your eyes and reduce the redness. Stick to the label directions and don't rub your eyes. If the redness does not go away or becomes worse, please see an eye specialist as soon as possible.

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.

Female | 25

You may have a dry eye for various reasons such as long periods spent looking at screens, use of contact lenses for too long, or being in dry air environments. At times, the drops alone might not be sufficient for you. It is imperative to have a complete check-up with an eye doctor to rule out the possibility of the problem being treated with a different method.

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.

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 vision blacks out when I wake up in the morning

Female | 19

Sometimes, you may experience darkness when opening your eyes after sleeping. This happens due to decreased blood pressure upon standing, causing less oxygen to reach your brain temporarily. Simply rising slowly, stretching gently, can help avoid this condition. If it persists, consulting a ophthalmologist proves wise to ensure no underlying causes exist.

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.

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.

She has a eye pressure rate 26-27

Female | 15

An eye pressure between 26-27 is a bit higher than the normal. This can be the first indicator of a disorder named glaucoma. Nevertheless, these signs may be related to decreased vision, eye pain, or no symptoms. Excessive eye pressure is the cause of visual impairment; therefore, an eye examination is essential. The course of action generally includes using eye drops or surgery to reduce pressure levels and keep your sight safe.
