Cataract surgery typically involves costs, depending on your healthcare provider and insurance coverage. Cataracts cause blurred vision and difficulty seeing at night, often linked to aging or certain health conditions. If you experience these symptoms, it’s important to consult with an eye care specialist who can assess your situation and discuss potential options, including financial assistance programs that may be available.

I have -7.5 eye sight In right eye and -3.75 eye sight in my left eye .am I eligible for pwd low vision category

Male | 24

Significant nearsightedness in both eyes is what you have in effect. This, though, can be a challenge, not the case for people who have disabilities, and may not necessarily be a reason for low vision. You may have symptoms such as blurry vision and struggle to see things at a distance. Genetic factors or eye shape can be some of the causes. Glasses or contact lenses can be used to correct the vision. Be sure to see an eye doctor for a thorough assessment and advice.

This can be the initial sign of either an ocular migraine or a transient ischemic attack (TIA). In relationship to your symptoms, and given your work surroundings, you are advised to see an ophthalmologist or a neurologist who specializes in vision-related matters.

You might be experiencing eye strain and fatigue, as these can result in headaches, body aches, and ringing in the ears too. Additionally, when one is tired, their eyes tend to work more thereby causing the mentioned symptoms. For relief, ensure to take screen breaks, rest your eyes, and try using warm compresses. However, if they persist, consult an eye specialist immediately.

Your eyes may feel pressure higher than usual. Sometimes, no issues occur, but it could cause blurry vision, headaches, or eye pain. High-pressure results from fluid not draining properly. An eye doctor may prescribe eye drops, which help lower the pressure and protect your sight.

Please I have problems on my eyes any time I bathe my eye will itchy me, And because of that I change my soap so many times still. But I see things clearly

Male | 31

Itchiness in your eyes while bathing may be linked to soap or water irritants. Common causes include sensitivity to ingredients in personal care products, or even airborne allergens. To alleviate the discomfort, consider using hypoallergenic soap and avoid direct contact with your eyes during washing. Rinsing your eyes gently with clean, lukewarm water may help as well. However, persistent symptoms warrant a professional evaluation. I encourage you to consult an ophthalmologist for tailored advice and peace of mind regarding your condition. They can provide a thorough assessment and recommend suitable treatments.

I have Eye red 3 days... I want eye drop or tab for treatment

Male | 24

Allergies, infections, or dryness may cause this. Over-the-counter lubricating eye drops can be used to treat it. These drops will help relieve your eyes and reduce the redness. Stick to the label directions and don't rub your eyes. If the redness does not go away or becomes worse, please see an eye specialist as soon as possible.

I have low vision and thin optic nerve Eye pain and headache

Male | Shivam Sharma

Low vision and a narrow optic nerve are hard to deal with. These problems could be causing the eye pain and headaches you’re having. Glaucoma or damage to the optic nerve can sometimes lead to such symptoms. Therefore you need to visit an ophthalmologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Mere ball k samne narve me swelling ho gaya hai

Male | 33

Swelling in front of the eye can occur due to various reasons, including injury, inflammation, or sometimes an infection. You may experience pain, difficulty in moving, or warmth in that area. It's essential to rest the affected eye, use ice to reduce swelling. Over-the-counter pain relief can help manage discomfort. However, if the swelling persists, worsens, or is accompanied by severe pain, it’s advisable to consult a ophthalmologist for a thorough evaluation.

I’m a 28 years old female..I’m having right side temple pain and eye pain for about a month..not much severe..a dull ache..I get it everyday but not every time…I’m a shortsighted person also..could it be due to my sight problem??or any other serious condition??

Female | 28

If you are experiencing pain in the eyes and temples it might be related to your vision. On another note, nearsightedness can make your eyes work extra hard which causes discomforts such as these. However we should also consider more serious possibilities. Additionally, staring at screens or books too long without enough breaks; not sleeping well due to various reasons including stress could lead onto them pains too therefore among other things try adequate rest combined with good lighting for relief. Consult an eye specialist if they persist or get worse.

Should I study without astigmatism glasses because I don't have now . Plz tell. My exams preparation will be effected or not.

Male | 21

Are you studying? Make sure to wear your astigmatism glasses! Not wearing them can negatively affect your preparation. Astigmatism causes blurry vision and eye strain, leading to discomfort and headaches. Astigmatism occurs due to an irregular shape of the cornea or lens, but wearing glasses can correct blurry vision, helping you study more effectively.

Kya cataract ki surgery karane se meri eyes sahi ho jaye gi ?? Bina operation ke eye thik nahi hosakti h kya??

Female | 21

The results of eye surgery can be helpful for your vision. Generally, when your eyes suffer from cataracts, you may tend to see things more or less, have problems with color, and even have trouble with night vision. Cataracts are the result of the lens of the eye becoming cloudy. The surgery involves removing the cloudy lens and replacing it with a clear artificial one. This stuff can make you see better.

Why my eyes are red and feeling weak and pain in all over body

Male | 21

You probably have the flu, a virus that spreads easily. Flu makes your eyes red and irritated. It causes weakness and body aches too. These comes from your immune system fighting the virus. Get lots of rest, drink fluids, and take pain meds. That can help you feel better soon.

Right side eye not visible blur

Male | 66

Some reasons for this include having an infection in one’s eye(s), getting hurt somehow or trouble with the blood vessels within them. While these may serve as signs indicating when things such as these are happening:

If you’re in pain then your eyes could be affected
Redness around the affected part could show a problem also exists there.
Being sensitive to light may be another issue altogether.

Please visit an eye doctor for further treatment.

13 years ago I had an operation on my eye then you were fine but now you are suffering from squint the squint is increasing slowly I contacted the nearest doctor but he told me that you have had an operation so you Even if we fix it on the squint but it will not be correct because your vision is very low and the other eye can see fine so can you suggest me that this problem can be solved

Male | 18

A squint may occur if the eye muscles do not collaborate well. Although your vision is weaker in the affected eye, the correction of squinting will not be complete. One additional option is to use prism glasses or practice some visual exercises to develop dynamic eye movements as well. The best thing would be to follow up all the instructions and updates of your eye doctor who will tell you what is specifically appropriate for your case.

I have itching eye what sometimes it itches me

Female | 29

Itching around the eyes can result from allergies, dryness, or irritants like dust and pollution. Symptoms might include redness, watering, or swelling along with the itchiness. To alleviate discomfort, consider using artificial tears for dryness, applying a cool compress, or avoiding known triggers. Additionally, over-the-counter antihistamines could help if allergies are the cause. Maintaining good eye hygiene is essential. If symptoms persist or worsen, I encourage you to consult an ophthalmologist for a thorough examination and personalized treatment options.
