well, studies have shown omega 3 fatty acids as dietary intake or suppliments can be helpful in managing some eye health conditions like in managing dry eye or slowing progression in macular degeneration. I do not know the mechanism by which they bring about these effects but since they are essential for maintaining the integrity and functionality of retinal cell membranes, having them in good amounts should definitely be helpful

Thank you sir

I had my eye surgery 20 days ago and I have a question how long are eyes gritty after cataract surgery. Please let me know

I had my eye surgery 20 days ago and I have a question how long are eyes gritty after cataract surgery. Please let me know

it is not out of place for persons to experience symptoms of grittiness due to disruption to the tear film stability from inflammation or cutting of corneal nerves in the course of the cataract surgery. Some may experience it for a short while and some others longer and would be needing to be on artificial tears suppliment to help them through. Discuss with your doc about your discomfort so he/she could recommend one for you.

drsteroid:
tearing and itching are mainly caused by allergens,so drugs like mast cell stabilizers and antihistamnies will really take care of that..however,there may be other causes like refractive error,a proper case history is really needed in other to make a good diagnosis,so you can tell me more about what you think might have caused it,when you usually experience it and other symptoms, that comes with it.
Thank you

you can't be sure your claims until you have gone for an eye examination. As for what you should take to promote eye health, eat fruits and green leafy veggies . You can also use eye antioxidants .

Good evening doctors.
please my daddy is suffering from glaucoma & it has really affects his vision.
We've gone to several hospitals & he has been placed on eye drop.

but the eye pressure increase day by day..pls I want to ask if there's anything he can use so that the pressure will decrease & also can he do surgery to regain his sight?
thanks so much Sir

if drugs fail to bring down pressure then surgery would be the next option. The goal in glaucoma management isn't to restore lost vision but to prevent further loss of vision and this can be very well achieveable
