I've been struggling with eye pain since the covid year. I spoke with a nurse at the eye hospital who suggested wearing glasses because of my low power of 0.25, but the pain persisted. I can't tolerate bright lights or work on my laptop, especially at night. About six months ago, an eye clinic diagnosed me with a severe eye allergy. I've been on medication courses for 3 weeks, then 2 months, and another 2 months. The pain eases with the meds, but it returns once I stop. Currently, I'm back on a 2-month course taking FLI drops, UV lube, and sodium hyaluronate XL HA, but the pain keeps coming back. Is there any chance this eye allergy can be permanently resolved, or will I have to keep taking these meds non-stop? Should I consider seeing another doctor for a second opinion?

Question

I'm really worried because my eyes get really watery whenever I'm exposed to light for too long. It becomes really noticeable, like when I have a retina checkup and the doctor uses that bright torch light. My eyes just start tearing up a lot, and it seems like they're getting more sensitive to light over time. Im curious to know what might be causing this issue and what I can do to fix it. Could you help me understand what's happening and how it can be treated?

Question

What are these eye veins I'm noticing? Should I be worried about them? I've seen that they're more prominent when I ride my bike in the wind. Are they dangerous?

Question

I've noticed that my left eye is looking really red, kind of like it's filled with a blood-like fluid, and it's been this way for about 23 days now. I've also been feeling this strain in that eye for the same amount of time. I do have high blood pressure and diabetes, so I'm wondering if those might be connected to what's going on. What could be causing this, and what would the diagnosis likely be?
