I've suddenly noticed that the sclera of my left eye is swollen. I don't wear glasses or contact lenses, and I haven't been using any eye drops. Could you help me figure out what might be causing this?

That could be Chalazion, visit Ophthalmologist for evaluation and appropriate management, do not try to squeeze it, apply warm compress.

Question

My 6-month-old baby's eyes are watering continuously every day, and I'm quite worried. I've already consulted a doctor who showed me an exercise for my baby's eyes, which Ive been doing regularly, but the issue persists. I'm wondering why this might be happening and what else I could try to help my baby. Any advice?

Question

I'm dealing with this issue where my eyes start burning randomly, and when it happens, it can last the whole day with intervals of around 23 hours. I'm currently on atomoxetine, which I've read can rarely cause dilated pupils. I've attached a picture of my eyes. Could there be any other reasons for this, and is there anything I can do to help it?

Question

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?
