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.

I'm about to have PRK eye surgery and my doctor prescribed some eye drops. I'm a bit confused about the name though. Is it supposed to be "Ocular LS" or "Acular LS"? Can you help clarify? I need to make sure I'm using the right one.
Visit your doctor for appropriate management, and thats ocular ls

I'm a little worried because I'm 25 and dealing with some health issues. I've been noticing more and more eye floaters this past month, but my ophthalmologist says my eyes are fine after doing an OCT. They suggested I take Vitreon sachets every day for 30 days. But if everything's supposed to be okay, why are my floaters getting worse every day? I don't see any flashes, just lots of floaters that look like black dots or wavy lines. Could something else be going on?
Its reassuring that your OCT report is normal, and increasing floaters without flashes often indicate age-related vitreous changes, which are common but harmless. Since you have high blood pressure, ensure it's well-controlled as it can affect eye health; continue Vitreon as prescribed and follow up if symptoms worsen.
