I'm really concerned about my lazy eye. I have exotropia and was wondering how many times in my life I can have a squint operation. Is there a limit to how often this kind of surgery can be done, or are there any risks involved with having it multiple times?

I'm wondering if it's possible for both of my eyes to be slightly lazy? I've heard about "lazy eye" before, but is there a chance it could affect both eyes at once? What would that mean for my vision or overall eye health? I'm curious how this could be diagnosed or if there are specific symptoms I should look out for.

I thought my Flonase Fluticasone nasal spray was empty, but when I started pumping it before using it, I accidentally sprayed some into my left eye. I quickly rinsed it and even tried an eye bath with a shot glass. But now, I'm noticing the capillaries in the outer corner of my eye look a bit inflamed. Is this something I need to worry about, or is it okay to just wait and see if it gets better?
It sounds like you handled the situation quickly, which is great. While the slight inflammation in the corner of your eye might be a result of the spray, it should subside soon. Keep an eye on it, but if it gets worse or stays irritated, you may want to check in with a doctor for peace of mind.
