I'm a bit worried about my eyesight because my eye power has been getting worse lately. I have Sph. 0.25 and Cyl. 0.5 and I've been wearing glasses for about a year now. I spend almost 8 hours every day in front of a computer, and I'm wondering if that's affecting my eyes. Is there a way to get back to my natural eyesight? Also, should I be wearing my glasses all the time or just when I really need them, like when driving or in a lecture? Would love your advice on this.

For infants below 1 year and above 6 months:

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends:

  1. Exclusive breastfeeding until 6 months.
  2. Introduction of solid foods at 6 months.
  3. Continued breastfeeding until 12 months.

Regarding buffalo milk:

  1. Not recommended for infants under 1 year.
  2. Buffalo milk is high in protein, fat, and calories, which can be difficult for infants to digest.
  3. May lead to gastrointestinal issues, allergies, or intolerance.

Alternative options:

  1. Breast milk (ideal)
  2. Formula milk (if breastfeeding is not possible)
  3. Cow's milk or other infant formula (after 12 months)

Hey, I'm a bit concerned because when I woke up last night, everything looked yellow for about a minute before my vision returned to normal. Do you have any idea what the reason for this could be? Should I see a specific type of doctor? Oh, and just in case it matters, I had a C-section on April 5th, 2018. Would appreciate some insights!

This sudden yellowing of vision could be due to a condition called transient vision loss, which can have various causes such as migraines, low blood pressure, or even a temporary disruption in blood flow to the eye. Since you had a c-section in the past, it's important to consider any potential complications related to that procedure as well. I recommend consulting with an Ophthalmologist for a thorough eye examination to rule out any eye-related issues. Additionally, it may be beneficial to see a Neurologist to investigate any underlying neurological causes for this symptom. As for your c-section history, it's important to mention this to both doctors during your consultation for a comprehensive evaluation.

I'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.
