Hello drsteroid, I thank you for your good work. After experiencing blurry vision for sometime in my left eyes, I went to a hospital where I saw an eye doctor, and told her about it. She prescribed an eye drop, and ask me to use glasses too. The issue is, she was only focused of the wearing glasses to correct the refractive index, and wouldn't suggest any permanent cure. I can still see well with the help of the better eye. Pls, what will you suggest that I do. Isn't it true that wearing glasses can weaken your focus more? |

anakobembash:4rm the doctor's diagnosis,it shows u have a refractive error most especially in ur left eye,which can only be corrected tru optical aids like contact lens and glasses,and dis will enable u have a better vision.I wil advice u 2 stick 2 ur doctor's advice as there is no iota of truth in glasses weakening focusing ability or causing any damage 2 the eyes.instead it helps prevent refractive error related blindness which has been listed as one of the leading causes of low vision and blindness worldwide. |

My eyes heats up and irritates me often. It at times blurred my vission. Any eye drop? |
Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by Yem0350: 5:31pm On Jul 20, 2015 |
drsteroid:I have visited two specialist. Their finding counter each other. One said it was glaucoma, the other one I approached said, it is not glaucoma. Dat is was an eye infection, he later prescribed some drugs wich I used. Although, I didn't experience dat for some months now. Pls, my question is, let us assume is it glaucoma, not seeing the previous sign any more, does it mean the glaucoma has b treated. Secondly, how can one prevent glaucoma because I knw it is a silent eye problem dat results in blindness. |

imagrg:many eye conditions can cause such..Dry eye syndrome,refractive error,trichiasis and some other conditions can cause such..I will advice u visit an Eye clinic asap for a proper diagnosis and treatment.Thanks |

Eghosakelly:refractive error,eye muscle fatigue are the main causes of excessive blinking,irritation,frontal headache and tiredness of the eye.extreme sensitivity to light known as photophobia reduces when using a photochromic lens or sunshade..please,visit an eye clinic nearly 4 a proper diagnosis and treatment |
Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by drsteroid(m): 11:16am On Jul 21, 2015 |
Ariyke:poor distance vision can be caused by refractive error or pathology. Its advisable to go for an eye examination for the possible treatment option.There is really no problem with glasses if u ve been told to get glasses,getting a good frame wil actually give u a good outlook.contact lens is also an alternative to eyeglasses provided you can adhere strictly to the rules involved in using one.itching is usually as a result of allergic reaction. Will advice you visit a nearby eye clinic or if you stay in Lagos,I can help you out.Thanks |

drsteroid:pls would u advice a 12 yr old girl to wear contact lens.she has refractive error cald aumblopia or something like that. |
Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by drsteroid(m): 2:02am On Oct 24, 2015 |
apcpdpallscam:yea its cool,only if she meets all the criteria for using a contact lens.I wil advice she goes for spectacle lenses due to the extreme care and precautions involved in wearing a contact lens.Thanks |
Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by drsteroid(m): 2:05am On Oct 24, 2015 |
optm: apcpdpallscam:contact lens is advisable and the best option for people with high refractive error,amblyopia,anisometropia(unequal refractive error in both eyes).As long as the child has good tear film quality,stabilty and good blinking rate,maintains good hygiene and obeys other rules and regulations associated with contact lens wear,then she is good to go with CL. |
Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by drsteroid(m): 2:10am On Oct 24, 2015 |
Opzy94:You need to be on potent antibiotic medications.I will advice you visit an Eye Clinic nearby for a comprehensive examination and diagnosis asap.Thanks |
Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by optm(m): 5:52am On Oct 24, 2015 |
drsteroid:. since an eye is amblyopic den d refractive power in both eyes definately shld differ (anisometropia ) hence using contact lense in ha case wld b better to prevent xperiencin disparity in retinal image size (anisekonia ). bt u may hv to wori abt d amblyopic eye turnin stabismic hence causin cosmetic disappeal. |

Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by HEFAIROHLUWA(m): 3:59pm On Dec 03, 2015 |
Hello drsteroid, I feel pain in my temples,sensitive to light and blurred vision sometimes I will try to focus hard to see clearly especially at nights. I use the PC and phone often . Any drugs I could use or eye medicines like visionace,maxivision or anyone you really recommend. Last year I did an eye test and results where astigmatism and longsightedness And last of all I sometimes feel something blocking my eye sometimes left or right and I will have to close or blink my eyes to see clearly. Please help!!! |
Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by drsteroid(m): 8:19pm On Dec 03, 2015 |
HEFAIROHLUWA:Good pm,Sorry 4 d late reply,I got a notification u sent me an e-mail but cudnt find your message in my mail box. From the case history you just gave,it showed you have been diagnosed of having astigmatism which requires Spectacle (glasses) correction or contact lens..I wil advice you visit your eye doctor and get the required prescription and also make sure the prescription comes with a photochromic and anti reflection coating ,this wil releive you from the frequent temporal headache,blurry vision at distance,discomfort associated with extreme sentivity to light rays,and protection from rays emanating from ur PC and phones. Frontal,temporal ache are usually frequent symptoms of uncorrected astigmatism and extreme photophobia( extreme sensitivity to light). Visionace,maxivision which you mentioned all belong to classes of drugs known as antioxidants and multivitamin (supplements) for the eyes,I wil advice you visit your Eye Doctor or a clinic nearby for a comprehensive Eye test for a proper diagnosis to the symptoms of 'covering' usually experienced in one of your Eye relative to the other.
