Do you happen to know if the eye color-changing product iCOLOUR is actually safe to use? I'm a bit worried about the potential risks, like could it make someone go blind? And if it does change eye color, how long would that even last?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
iCOLOUR and similar products that claim to change eye color can carry risks, including potential eye damage or infection, as they alter the natural pigmentation of the iris. It's important to consult an eye specialist before using such products to ensure safety. The effects may not be permanent and can last only for a few months to a year, depending on the product.

View allI'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.

I'm wondering if it's possible for both of my eyes to be slightly lazy? I've heard about "lazy eye" before, but is there a chance it could affect both eyes at once? What would that mean for my vision or overall eye health? I'm curious how this could be diagnosed or if there are specific symptoms I should look out for.

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.
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.
