I'm really concerned because I've had a fever for the past couple of days, but starting yesterday, my right eye started having this sticky discharge. It's also swollen and inflamed, and I've noticed my face is a bit puffy too. What could be going on, and should I be worried?

Question

I'm 19 and I've recently noticed that my prescription has gone up, from 1.5 to 2.00D in my left eye and 3.25 to 3.5D in my right. I thought my vision would stabilize after turning 18, but it seems like it keeps getting worse every time I see my doctor. Is this progressive myopia going to ever level out? If so, when might that happen? I'm worried that if it keeps changing, it'll become a big problem. I've become quite a mobile addict, and I'm also a computer science student. Could you offer some advice?

Question

I've been using my air conditioner in the room for quite a while, and now I'm experiencing some pain and redness just in my left eye. It's really uncomfortable, especially since I can't even close my left eye properly because the upper lid hurts, and there's this reddish tint on the lower lid. On top of that, I'm trying to study for my exams, which makes it even more frustrating. Do you have any recommendations for something that can help soothe this?

Question

I'm new to wearing contact lenses and have been super careful, following all the instructions from my optician. I only wore them for 5 hours today, but now I'm feeling a bit uneasy. One of my eyes feels a bit offthere's some redness and it kind of feels like something's stuck in it. It's not the actual eye, but more like inside the eyelid where I sense it. I even took a picture to see if there's something visible. What should I do about this? How can I make it better?
