I'm really worried about my daughter. She's got a cylindrical power of 1.25 in her right eye and 1.0 in her left. Is this something serious? Does she have to wear glasses all the time now, or are there ways to treat this? I've heard cylindrical power can get worse over timeis that true? Are there any medicines that could help her out?

Your daughter has mild astigmatism, which is common and generally not serious. Glasses can help correct her vision, and she may need to wear them regularly, especially for activities like reading or watching TV. Astigmatism can change over time, so regular eye check-ups are important. There's no specific medicine to treat it, but glasses or contact lenses can manage it effectively.

I've recently had Lasik surgery, and now I've noticed my left eye vision is at 69 and my right eye is at 66. Someone suggested that vision therapy could be beneficial for adults and mentioned something about software-based programs. My left eye also has a 0.25 correction. I'm curious if I should pursue vision therapy, and if so, could you recommend any clinics that offer good services?

I messed up and accidentally put dewax ear drops in my granny's eye. She started experiencing pain and her eye turned red. I used eye drops right after and flushed her eye with water. It's been an hour, and she's still in pain. I'm really worried. What should I do?
