I'm new to wearing contact lenses and have been super careful, following all the instructions from my optician. I only wore them for 5 hours today, but now I'm feeling a bit uneasy. One of my eyes feels a bit offthere's some redness and it kind of feels like something's stuck in it. It's not the actual eye, but more like inside the eyelid where I sense it. I even took a picture to see if there's something visible. What should I do about this? How can I make it better?

View allI'm on Travatan drops because of being a glaucoma suspect and have been using them for about 50 days now. Lately, I've been getting headaches and pain around my eyes, so they suggested I see a neurologist. Now, they think it's cluster headache and want me to start on prednisolone. Could you tell me if there are any side effects from using travoprost and prednisolone together?
Both Travoprost (a glaucoma drop) and Prednisolone (a steroid) can be used together, but it's important to monitor for potential side effects like increased intraocular pressure or changes in eye health with long-term use of steroids. It's always best to follow your doctor's advice and report any unusual symptoms.

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.

My 6-month-old baby's eyes are watering continuously every day, and I'm quite worried. I've already consulted a doctor who showed me an exercise for my baby's eyes, which Ive been doing regularly, but the issue persists. I'm wondering why this might be happening and what else I could try to help my baby. Any advice?
