Question 1

Accepted Answer

Dont worry, your spectacle power should stabilise within the next 5 years or so. Only after this happens, can u think about laser surgery to correct your vision.

Question 2

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?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 3

I've been having some issues with my eyes and vision, and my eye strain is really getting to me. My current prescription is sph 3.5 and cyl 0.75 for both eyes, but it used to be less without any cyl power, just 2.75. I haven't seen an eye doctor for a year and a half, but then three months ago, I had to get new glasses because mine broke. That's when they told me my eye power increased. Back before all the COVID stuff, I was outside a lot, playing cricket and barely using any screens, just reading books. But now, I'm inside all the time, staring at my phone for over 15 hours a day and not eating well either. I've started getting headaches around my eyes, eyebrows, and forehead, and my eyes feel so tired. I'm really trying to get my vision and overall eye health back on track. Any advice on what I can do?
