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?

I'm dealing with an issue for the past 5 or 6 days where I have a small pimple-like swelling at the corner of my right eye. It seems to be coming from the inside layer, and it's pretty annoying because it itches and hurts sometimes. What could be causing this? Would appreciate your advice.

I've been dealing with Keratoconus since I was 18, diagnosed back in 2014. In 2015, I had corneal collagen cross-linking on my left eye. My vision's always been a concern, especially with my left eye where I've been using Rosek2 contact lenses. Right now, my vision in the right eye seems fairly stable with minimal blur, but the left eye seems to be getting worse, especially when I look at my records over the years. The readings keep changing, especially the K1, K2, and the thinnest part of the cornea. Should I be worried about these changes over the years, and is there anything else I should be keeping an eye on or considering treatment-wise to maintain or improve my vision?

My mom has been coughing quite a lot lately, and I'm a bit worried since she's supposed to have cataract surgery on the 18th of January. Is it safe for her to go ahead with the surgery with this cough, or should she delay it? Would love to get your advice on this.
