I'm cooking and a drop of hot oil splashed into my left eye. It's really itching and burning, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Could you please help me figure out how to treat this?

You can flush your eye with clean water for at least 15 minutes to help relieve the symptoms. You can use lubricating eye drops like Refresh Tears or Systane Ultra to soothe the eye. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult an ophthalmologist for further evaluation and treatment.

View allMy mom has been coughing quite a lot lately, and I'm a bit worried since she's supposed to have cataract surgery on the 18th of January. Is it safe for her to go ahead with the surgery with this cough, or should she delay it? Would love to get your advice on this.

I'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 really worried because my eyes have been red for the past couple of days. I've tried putting coconut oil around them and washing them with cold water. It helped a bit, but the redness still isn't gone. I'm thinking about using Refresh Tears eye drops. Do you think that's a good idea, and if so, how many drops should I use and for how long?
Yes you can use them like 2 drops in each eye for 4 times in a day, if it's becoming worse visit Ophthalmologist for evaluation and appropriate management
