I was riding my bike, and some insect flew into my eye. Now it's all red and swollen. Could you tell me what I should do about it?

Immediately flush your eye with water, avoid rubbing or touching the eye, and remove any contact lenses; then, apply a cold compress to reduce swelling, and use over-the-counter antihistamine or anti-allergic eye drops, such as chlorpheniramine or ketotifen, to alleviate redness and itchin

View allI'm looking for some advice regarding my eyeglasses. I've been wearing them for the last 78 years, and recently I've had a bit of confusion about my prescription. Almost two years ago, my frame broke, and when I got a check-up at the eyewear shop, they said there was no change in my power. The prescription then was: Left Eye - Spherical 2.25, Cylindrical 0.50, Axis 175; Right Eye - Spherical 2.00. But I recently got my eyes checked at Lenskart, and the optician said its now: Left Eye - Spherical 2.00, Cylindrical 0.75, Axis 175; Right Eye - Spherical 2.00. I spoke with my regular optician, and he mentioned a 0.25 difference is common and should not be an issue. I went ahead and ordered new glasses with the Lenskart prescription, but now I'm not sure if I should switch to the new glasses or stay with the old ones. Can this small difference affect my vision, or is it okay to use either pair? I'm feeling a bit confused about what to do next.
If the small difference in the prescription isnt causing you any noticeable issues, I wouldnt worry too much. But trying the new lenses out should give you a better sense of what works best for your eyes! Let me know if you need any more clarification.

My glasses prescription is 17D and 10.5D. I'm a bit concerned about my eye health and was wondering if you could recommend a really good omega-3 supplement from any top pharma brand that could help. Do you have any suggestions?
