Question 1

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?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 2

I'm Nikhil and I'm from Bangalore. I'm 28 and I've developed this swollen bump on my upper eyelid on the right side. It's a bit itchy and I feel some pain, especially towards the edge. I've attached a photo for context. Could you help me figure out what this might be and what I should do to get rid of it?

Accepted Answer

That could be Chalazion,do not try to squeeze it,it will resolve on its own, visit Ophthalmologist for appropriate management

Question 3

Hey, I'm a bit concerned because when I woke up last night, everything looked yellow for about a minute before my vision returned to normal. Do you have any idea what the reason for this could be? Should I see a specific type of doctor? Oh, and just in case it matters, I had a C-section on April 5th, 2018. Would appreciate some insights!

Accepted Answer

This sudden yellowing of vision could be due to a condition called transient vision loss, which can have various causes such as migraines, low blood pressure, or even a temporary disruption in blood flow to the eye. Since you had a c-section in the past, it's important to consider any potential complications related to that procedure as well. I recommend consulting with an Ophthalmologist for a thorough eye examination to rule out any eye-related issues. Additionally, it may be beneficial to see a Neurologist to investigate any underlying neurological causes for this symptom. As for your c-section history, it's important to mention this to both doctors during your consultation for a comprehensive evaluation.
