I'm worried about my daughter's vision because she tends to watch TV, read books, and use her phone really close to her eyes. I tried testing her sight by asking her to stand about 2 meters away from a whiteboard to read some letters, but she couldn't identify them all. What should I do?

View allI'm a bit worried about my daughter's eyes. They get watery when she's watching TV or reading a book, and the same happens with bright toys. She's really sensitive to sunlight too. Is this some kind of deficiency or a vision problem? I really want to avoid her needing glasses if possible. She does watch TV from a distance, but she gets super focused and doesn't blink much. We're thinking of cutting back on her TV time, but should we be concerned about her vision needing urgent attention? Any advice would be great.
Your daughter's watery eyes while watching TV, reading, or playing with bright toys, and sensitivity to sunlight, may indicate dry eye syndrome, digital eye strain, or potentially, a condition like photophobia; to avoid potential long-term vision problems, consult a pediatric ophthalmologist for a comprehensive eye exam to rule out any underlying conditions; in the meantime, encourage your daughter to follow the 20-20-20 rule, blink regularly while watching TV, and adjust the screen's brightness and contrast.

I accidentally put OTOBIOTIC ear drops in my eyes and they started burning. I washed them out really well with water, and then I used ITONE. Could there be any issues with my eyes now?

Hey, I uploaded two of my prescriptions. Could you let me know if my vision has improved since 2018? I'm really curious if there's been any progress with it.
