there are different causes of such and it would require alot of questionings and an examination to tell what's wrong with your eye. you just have to see an eye care professional ASAP

hi . this is a sub conjuctival hemorrhage. it would resolve on it's own and u do not require drugs to get it cleared. discontinue d visine drop. u can apply warm compress to hasten its resolve. how did u come about the redness? did something happen to d eye or it u just suddenly noticed it?

@ optm,

My kid of 1year 4 months had swollen eyes with pus discharge, took him to hospital and the doc admitted him saying he would need close monitoring.
He place placed on Metronidazole, the pus stopped and redness also cleared but still swollen.
3 days later, a consultant came and prescribed Rocephin saying the initial wasn't as effective as it should.
He has been on the Rocephin now for 3 days with no remarkable difference.

Pls do you have any further recommendations as I'm sick of the boy being in the hospital.

hi there. what was the diagnosis? orbital cellulitis? give it time. drugs doesn't work by magic . I m sure your baby would be fine and if there isn't improvement as you say, the attending consultant would know what next is to be done. just be patient with them and allow them do their job. wishing your baby quick recovery

I am an Eye doctor, I discovered through clinical experience that most Patients don't really know about some basic things and problems affecting the eyesn and these has led to simple eye problems being seen as complicated and frightening to most patients and they don't really know how to go about it. There are some eye problems that are hereditary,which requires normal routine eye examinations but due to ignorance most patients tend to lose their sight to eye problems that could have been prevented. I want to use this opportunity to enlighten us and provide solutions to problems affecting the eyes,in line with WHO Vision 2020-Right to sight for all, so all questions concerning the eyes are welcomed

Good day, Doc.

I have been short-sighted since 2015 but lately, I noticed some difficulties seeing the faces of people about 10-15 feet away from me. I would see their body but the face will be blurry. Is this also part of the former problem or something new?

Also, I don't like wearing my glasses because my eyes get painful and my head aches when I wear it for long. Do you think contact lens would be safer.?
Thank you

ok . you are having issues upon prolong use of your glasses cos it probably isn't the right prescription. glasses re safer than Contact lenses. Contact lenses are safe as well if you re hygiene conscious and u stick to d recommended usage. you should go to a good eye clinic for a re examination . your not being able to see faces clearly at certain distances could be due to the refractive error most likely or something more; but only when you go for an eye exam can you know what exactly is the cause . shalom

Good day
Firstly,I will like to know how long you have been using ur glasses?
The blurry vision u experience when looking at distance object is as a result of refractive error, that was why you were given a Spectacle prescription to nullify the discomfort. You must always put on your glasses for you to get a better vision.
Contact lenses can also be prescribed, you can discuss this with your Eye Doctor.Thanks

Good evening sir,
Please I will like to speak with you personally for an issue I will like to explain

it's important your friend avoids the triggers to her migraine and if her uncorrected refractive error precipitates such, she should try wear her prescription always. Have u tried finding her reasons for not wanting to wear her glasses? That would be a good place to start .

Good evening doc,
After treating conjunctivitis, I noticed my eye vision is not that clear but when I yawn everything become crystal clear temporarily then reverts. I'm also noticing halos around lights.What might be the issue?

Sophiaugo:

on her ears? Let her change the frame to something lighter and If her lenses are thick, she should go for ultra thin lenses. she may feel more comfortable after this. She should return to her eye doc and discuss her discomforts .

how old are you? Is the halo's observed by one or both eyes? Well you should visit your eye doc so the y investigate the cause of your experiencing halos. Amongst which are insufficient tears, increased pressure in the eye (iop), astigmatism, lens opacity, or when your cornea retains much fluid . We cannot actually assess you for these online u know. My dear you should go see your eye doc

hi dear such growth spreading fast calls for great concern. The nature of growth determines the management approach. A biopsy may be needed as well. Please let her go see her eye doc ASAP
