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

View allI've been working a lot on my laptop lately, and my eyes are feeling really dry. There's no shine in them anymore, and it's starting to worry me. Could you recommend a good medicine to help with this?
You can use Refresh tear eye drops as 2 drops in each eye 4 times in a day that would help you

I'm a bit confused about my recent eye test results. I went to Titan Eye and they said my vision is 2.00 on both sides, so I ordered glasses based on that. But a few days later, during a family checkup, another eye test showed my vision as 1.50. When I asked Titan Eye about this, they mentioned that a variation of 0.25 or 0.50 is normal and suggested that wearing 2.00 glasses wouldn't harm my eyes. But I'm not quite convinced. Is it really okay to wear glasses with a slightly higher power, like 2.00 instead of 1.50? Do you think its better to stick with a 1.50 power for reading, or should I consider progressive lenses? I've tested with another doctor who also said it's 1.50. What's your advice on the best route to take here?
You go according to ophthalmologist opinion , sometimes technicians may not do it properly.. .minor variation will be there in all test, its interobsever variation.... Results also depends on type of test whether it's just a chart test or slit lamp test..

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
