Question

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've developed an Eye Chalazion on my right eye. During the first week, it was quite painful, but now it doesn't hurt anymore. Its still there though. Could you recommend a good medicine for this?

Question

I've been noticing that I'm getting these external styes on my upper eyelids quite frequently lately. They seem to disappear on their own after a day or two, but then they come back again. Though they aren't painful, it's starting to worry me a bit. Could you recommend any medication or treatment that might help prevent them from returning?
