I'm really worried about something that happened. While I was putting on makeup, my eye suddenly turned red. I intended to use the neomycin and polymyxin B sulfates and dexamethasone eye drops that were prescribed last year for pink eye, but I accidentally used a different dropneomycin and polymyxin B sulfates and hydrocortisone Otic solution. Afterward, my eye burned really badly. I washed it out and used the eye drops, and now it's not as red, but it feels warm and a bit inflamed. Should I be concerned or do anything specific right now?

Kindly don't self medicate. Wash your eyes thoroughly with water. If there's any further irritation, discharge from the eye, or blurring of vision, kindly visit the opthalmologist at the earliest.

View allI've been struggling with eye pain since the covid year. I spoke with a nurse at the eye hospital who suggested wearing glasses because of my low power of 0.25, but the pain persisted. I can't tolerate bright lights or work on my laptop, especially at night. About six months ago, an eye clinic diagnosed me with a severe eye allergy. I've been on medication courses for 3 weeks, then 2 months, and another 2 months. The pain eases with the meds, but it returns once I stop. Currently, I'm back on a 2-month course taking FLI drops, UV lube, and sodium hyaluronate XL HA, but the pain keeps coming back. Is there any chance this eye allergy can be permanently resolved, or will I have to keep taking these meds non-stop? Should I consider seeing another doctor for a second opinion?

I'm noticing some changes in the power of my right eye, especially with the spherical and cylindrical measurements. Since I started wearing my new glasses, I've been experiencing immediate pain in my right eye, and it feels a bit blurry. Is this something that will adjust over time, or should I get my eye power checked again? Also, I'm getting headaches. I've got pictures of the old and new prescriptions too. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm really worried because my left eyelid has suddenly become swollen. It's so irritating and makes me want to scratch it. I noticed it started after my yoga class in the park yesterday morning. It wasn't that bad then, but today it's way more swollen. Could the yoga class or just being outside have caused this? What should I do about it?
That could be due to insect bite, don't try to squeeze it, visit Ophthalmologist for evaluation and appropriate management
