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

Question

I'm noticing this strange purple shape when I look at people, and sometimes my vision goes blurry for a few seconds. I've had an OCT scan done and I'm using some eye drops and taking a supplement called i Sight Plus. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it just a normal thing?

Question

I've been using my air conditioner in the room for quite a while, and now I'm experiencing some pain and redness just in my left eye. It's really uncomfortable, especially since I can't even close my left eye properly because the upper lid hurts, and there's this reddish tint on the lower lid. On top of that, I'm trying to study for my exams, which makes it even more frustrating. Do you have any recommendations for something that can help soothe this?

Question

I'm worried about these retinal holes and tears I've got, and I'm really hoping there's a way to manage them without going through laser treatment. Do you think homeopathy could be effective for this? And if it's possible, how long would it take to see any results? I'm just trying to explore all my options here.
