I'm a little worried because I'm 25 and dealing with some health issues. I've been noticing more and more eye floaters this past month, but my ophthalmologist says my eyes are fine after doing an OCT. They suggested I take Vitreon sachets every day for 30 days. But if everything's supposed to be okay, why are my floaters getting worse every day? I don't see any flashes, just lots of floaters that look like black dots or wavy lines. Could something else be going on?

Its reassuring that your OCT report is normal, and increasing floaters without flashes often indicate age-related vitreous changes, which are common but harmless. Since you have high blood pressure, ensure it's well-controlled as it can affect eye health; continue Vitreon as prescribed and follow up if symptoms worsen.

Got C3R done a couple of months ago, and initially, everything was looking good with my vision getting better. But recently, I went outside and got some dust in my eyes, which led to an infection. The doctor prescribed BMox, but now my vision's gone blurry and there's some pain too. Should I get this checked out with the doc again or just wait it out a bit?

I'm dealing with some really itchy eyes today, and it feels like I've got a bunch of sand in them. My eyes are super red, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Plus, my head feels really heavy on top. Any ideas on what's going on?

I've been feeling this weird pressure in my eyes every time I sit on the ground and then stand up again. I'm a bit worried because I'm overweight, around 88kg, and I'm 5.6 feet tall. Could that be causing it?
