Question 1

I'm really worried about having dry eyes. Is it something that could eventually lead to losing my vision? Also, is this condition something that's going to stick around forever? Would love some guidance on what to expect.

Accepted Answer

No , dryeyes get infected easily and leads to refractive errors,hence should not be neglected,and usually it's not a chronic problem

Question 2

I've been having this odd cold feeling in my eyes all the time, like a menthol sensation. It's kinda like when acetone dries on your skin. I keep squeezing my eyes and just can't keep them open for long without discomfort. I've noticed that air exposure seems to make it worse. It's honestly quite debilitating. Do you have any idea what might be causing this, and what I can do about it?

Accepted Answer

This sensation in your eyes could be due to dry eye syndrome. I recommend using artificial tears eye drops, such as Systane Ultra, 1-2 drops in each eye 4 times a day. Additionally, you can use a warm compress over your eyes for relief. If the symptoms persist, consult an ophthalmologist for further evaluation.

Question 3

I'm curious about getting rid of my spectacles, as my eye power is 2.25 in both eyes. Do I need any special treatment or surgery to address this? I'd love some guidance on what my options might be.

Accepted Answer

For your myopia of -2.25 in both eyes, you may consider undergoing a refractive surgery called LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis). This procedure can help correct your vision and reduce your dependence on glasses or contact lenses. It is important to consult with an ophthalmologist to determine if you are a suitable candidate for LASIK. The typical dosage for this surgery is one session per eye, with post-operative care instructions provided by your doctor.

Can anyone explain what sac lac is used for? Also, I'm having trouble reading my prescription; can someone help me figure out what medicine is mentioned? I can't really make out the handwriting.

Visit your Physician for evaluation and appropriate management
