It's been 26 days since my C-section delivery. I'm wondering if it's okay to start wearing contact lenses now or if it could cause any harm. If it's not advisable yet, how much longer should I wait?

Question

Hey, I've got this small white bump on my upper eyelid and it's underneath the skin. It's been causing a bit of pain. Any idea what's going on or what I should do about it?

I'm a bit confused about my recent eye test results. I went to Titan Eye and they said my vision is 2.00 on both sides, so I ordered glasses based on that. But a few days later, during a family checkup, another eye test showed my vision as 1.50. When I asked Titan Eye about this, they mentioned that a variation of 0.25 or 0.50 is normal and suggested that wearing 2.00 glasses wouldn't harm my eyes. But I'm not quite convinced. Is it really okay to wear glasses with a slightly higher power, like 2.00 instead of 1.50? Do you think its better to stick with a 1.50 power for reading, or should I consider progressive lenses? I've tested with another doctor who also said it's 1.50. What's your advice on the best route to take here?

Question

I'm really worried because it feels like the mascara I applied got into one eye, and there's just a tiny bit left in the other. If I decide to see a doctor, how would they actually go about removing it? I'm really scared about what might happen.
