I thought my Flonase Fluticasone nasal spray was empty, but when I started pumping it before using it, I accidentally sprayed some into my left eye. I quickly rinsed it and even tried an eye bath with a shot glass. But now, I'm noticing the capillaries in the outer corner of my eye look a bit inflamed. Is this something I need to worry about, or is it okay to just wait and see if it gets better?

It sounds like you handled the situation quickly, which is great. While the slight inflammation in the corner of your eye might be a result of the spray, it should subside soon. Keep an eye on it, but if it gets worse or stays irritated, you may want to check in with a doctor for peace of mind.

I have these glasses with scratches on the left lens, and they're really comfortable for me. I'm trying to figure out if it's okay to keep using them as is, or if it's better to get new ones. What do you think?

Question

I'm worried about my 3-year-old daughter's right eye. It sometimes appears to have a squint, but it's not always noticeable and we only catch it if we're observing really closely. What could be causing this, and what kind of solutions should we be considering? Also, could you recommend a good hospital with an orthoptist near HSR Layout where we could get it checked out?
