I'm a bit worried about my right eye. When I woke up this morning, it was watery and had turned a light red. This watery sensation is happening on and off, and I've been trying to ease the irritation with cold water. I remember something similar happening last year and used some medicine and eye drops that a doctor prescribed at that time. I've also tried Itone eye drops, which are ayurvedic. Should I keep using the old prescription or just stick with the Itone drops?

View allHey, 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 really worried about my dad. He's been a heart patient and even had bypass surgery about five years ago. He's been on blood thinners ever since. Now he's dealing with cataracts and the eye doctors are saying he should stop his blood thinners for a week before the surgery. I'm not sure about this advice. Is it really necessary to stop taking those medicines? And if he does stop, could it cause any problems or risks for his heart condition?
For patients undergoing cataract surgery who are on blood thinners, it is important to consult with both the cardiologist and the ophthalmologist to determine the best course of action. Stopping blood thinners can increase the risk of blood clots and other complications during surgery. However, in some cases, the ophthalmologist may recommend temporarily stopping the blood thinner to reduce the risk of bleeding during the surgery. If the ophthalmologist has recommended stopping the blood thinner for a week before the cataract surgery, it is important to follow their advice. They may have specific protocols in place to minimize the risk of bleeding during the procedure. It is crucial to discuss this decision with both the cardiologist and the ophthalmologist to ensure the safest outcome for your father. I don't know.

I'm really curious about the timeline for getting Lasik surgery. From the initial check-up to the actual procedure, does it take months, or can it all be done in just a few days? Also, how many days will I need to recover? And what's the deal with going back to workcan I return to the office right after the surgery?
In 2 weeks you will be fine after surgery,3 months is needed for complete recovery, take adequate rest and follow your doctor advice.
