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)

I've noticed over the past few days that the corners of my wife's eyes are really itchy, and it's affecting the area under her eyes too. She's sometimes getting teary-eyed without any reason. Could you give me some advice on what might help, or should we consider seeing a doctor?

Wife may be experiencing symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis. I recommend using over-the-counter antihistamine eye drops such as Zaditor (Ketotifen) twice a day to help relieve the itching and watering. Additionally, applying a cold compress to the eyes can also provide relief. Make sure to avoid rubbing the eyes as it can worsen the symptoms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult with a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm looking to renew my driver's license and I've heard that once you hit 40, you need a medical certificate for the process. I'm in Gurgaon and my vision is fine with the help of my glasses for myopia. I'm trying to find a doctor who can provide this certificate without charging more than 300 rupees. Any doctors out there who can assist with this?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's 60 and has been experiencing watery eyes a lot, especially when she's watching TV. I'm planning to take her to a doctor, but in the meantime, do you have any recommendations for eyedrops that could offer her some immediate relief? She doesn't have any other symptoms right now, so I'm just looking for something to help ease this.

That could be due to dryness,use refresh tear eye drops and visit Ophthalmologist for appropriate management
