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?

I'm really concerned about something that's been happening since I had herpes zoster shingles a couple of weeks ago. I had rashes on my neck and shoulders, all on the left side, but they've mostly cleared up now. However, this morning I noticed I can only twitch my left eye. I came across something online about herpes zoster ophthalmicus, and I'm worried this could be a late effect of the shingles. What should I do about this?

It is the complication of herpes infection.

I'm a bit worried about my daughter's eyes. They get watery when she's watching TV or reading a book, and the same happens with bright toys. She's really sensitive to sunlight too. Is this some kind of deficiency or a vision problem? I really want to avoid her needing glasses if possible. She does watch TV from a distance, but she gets super focused and doesn't blink much. We're thinking of cutting back on her TV time, but should we be concerned about her vision needing urgent attention? Any advice would be great.

Your daughter's watery eyes while watching TV, reading, or playing with bright toys, and sensitivity to sunlight, may indicate dry eye syndrome, digital eye strain, or potentially, a condition like photophobia; to avoid potential long-term vision problems, consult a pediatric ophthalmologist for a comprehensive eye exam to rule out any underlying conditions; in the meantime, encourage your daughter to follow the 20-20-20 rule, blink regularly while watching TV, and adjust the screen's brightness and contrast.

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.
